Eurovision 2024

Really don't get Netherlands, it should be loud and in your face and he's whispering half the song

[Naffman]

RAI (Italian TV) accidently released the voting %'s from the Italian public and Israel won heavily, they've plunged from 60s to 8s

[Naffman]

Makes you wonder how much you could make if you had inside knowledge in these competitions

[Naffman]

Thought Switzerland and France were excellent, also Ukraine and Ireland were great from the other night too, and with Israel getting 40% of the televote, Croatia at Evs looks way too short, will want to wait for the running order first though

Was all the rage when music videos were released, was really good tbf. He promised a lot for staging and came up with that, shocking.

Israel now 7/2, you'd have to think if its real and I have no reason to doubt that it isn't then its Ukraine 2022 all over again.

Looking at a YouGov poll from December, Italians have never had a more positive view on Israelis than of Palestinians in the last 12 mths, so if they're getting 40% off the Italians you have to wonder what they're getting off the Western countries.

How is the tissue for these markets being formed?

Opinion, no results are meant to be known from the semi-finals

[Naffman]

Looks like they’ve screwed both Israel and Ukraine putting them in the first half, makes me wonder if there’s heavy support for the latter too. Ukraine being followed by Germany isn't that bad though, and Netherlands being before Israel is a blessing as the Dutch entry is just so stupid.

Then they've put the other 3 favs in the last 6 acts...interesting.

I reckon Israel are good bets to win. They will trounce the public vote.

The public protests in Malmo are getting louder and the contestants were plain rude to her at the press conference last night which only helps her IMO.

Italy were allowed to vote in Ukraine’s semi in 2022 and they gave them 29%, so with Israel getting another 10% on top of that…

This year too, voting is open from the first song so being early isn’t as much as a disadvantage, it’s maybe why they’ve put Ukraine 2nd, as who knows how well they did.

Money steaming into Israel again, now into 11/4

There’s some really good each-way value now

Israel will probably win tele vote but can the jury let Israel win the whole contest? It would be a big loss for Eurovision and riots happening in Sweden.

Will they give low jury points on purpose?

Italian broadcaster Rai has accidentally revealed their televoting percentages during tonight's #Eurovision semi-final.

s a clarification, Italian television stations have traditionally always revealed televoting percentages for any television show that has televoting. However, in previous years, Rai has not revealed Eurovision semi-final televoting percentages until after the Grand Final.

Israel into 3.50 from huge odds.

[shubb]

I've traded Israel to win from 5.8 to 3.5 odds but it seems like too hot to trade now. During early morning it was way easier to trade but after waking up people started to back it heavily.
