    Ireland close to evens for next week. You could do worse with your Cheltenham winnings.

    For the day that's in it I'll be backing BOD for 1,2 & 3 tries and MOTM. Surely they can't give it to anyone else!:)

    For my head over heart bets I've an accum of Ire -22, Eng -5 and Scot +8. Also England to win by 10 or more, think they will win comfortably on Sunday.


    mike brown is 10-1 for Man of match. Given his form this season i think thats generous.

    I had Bayern, Schalke, Arsenal and BOD MOM yesterday. €5 returned 91. BOD as just 3-1 though.

    More after timing I'm afraid. Yesterday started out with the weekend following the same losing pattern of the previous two with both my try scorer bets (BOD and Rob Kearney) in the Italy game failing. When I got back from the pub I broke my own rules and chased my losses by transferring next weeks' gambling budget into my Paddy Power a/c. It's a dangerous practice - for me - but it worked out okay (and then the BOD refund came through) and by sticking to my old reliable points bets today I ended up just over 50% up for the weekend. :D

    I see Italy are +20 vs England. Anybody think that that's 4 or 5 points too generous, assuming Parisse is back?

    On the points difference front, Ireland are too far ahead of England on points difference while France would have to hockey Ireland in order to take the title from England. I don't think England will try to run in tries from the start.

    More like 10 points too generous. That bet is definitely going on.

    I'd easily fancy England to cover that -20. Not too sure if Wales will manage their -14 against the Scots though

    BOD to score a hat trick 100/1; BOD to be sent off 500/1 or perhaps the more likely MOTM 8/1 :D

    With PP it's 500/1 ! :P

    Think they're double odds if the 1st try-scorer scores again might be worth a bet for the England v Italy match and maybe the Wales v Scotland match..

    53.88 now, just reminding myself of the Ireland to win 6N bet. 1 unit on Italy +23 evens. I'm absolutely astounded by those odds.

    EDIT: 1 unit 2.0 Lions +4.

    I haven't even got to the Wales vs Scotland game yet let alone the Irish match but I've gone with Italy +23 evens and Italy to win 16/1 (a small bet) but wouldn't it be satisfying. :D

    Bit of after-timing for my accumulator, which is a nice safe one imo; England -5, Wales -2 & Ireland to win.


    I've got Ireland -7

    And my big bet is Ireland to win.

    As requested. :D

    After a setback with the Italy vs England game things improved and I finished 200% on the weekend. I missed out on Johnny's try spree last weekend but not today.
