Dancing with the Stars: Paul Brogan's odds of lifting glitterball trophy slashed
Former Dublin GAA footballer Paul Brogan has seen his Dancing with the Stars odds plummet after impressing with his most recent performance on the dancefloor.
Brogan surprised judges on the RTE One show last Sunday night when he and his pro dance partner Salome Chachua scored the highest mark of the series to date for their fun-filled Charleston with 27 points.
According to bookies Boylesports, Brogan has gone from a 40/1 outsider to 10/1 to lift the glitterball trophy.
Derry girl Brooke Scullion, meanwhile, has moved into favourite to be crowned Dancing with the Stars champion at 11/4 from 3/1 as her 24-point haul ensured she boasts the best average score through four weeks of performances.
Panti Bliss (3/1) and Suzanne Jackson (7/2) are hot on her heels as second and third favourites respectively, but Rugby legend Shane Byrne has it all to do this weekend as he is rated the dancer in most danger of being sent packing as the 33/1 outsider for the crown.
Lawrence Lyons, spokesperson for BoyleSports said: "The odds suggested Paul Brogan was in danger of being shown the red card, but there has been quite a turnaround and if he kicks on this weekend he could well be in the same ballpark as the favourites. But Brooke Scullion continues to impress and she's standing out as the one to beat!"
