    Auckland from a live webcam a few minutes ago. Weather looks smashing for a try fest. :D

    NZ by more than 28 points at half time @ 10/11
    More than 36.5 points in the 1st half @ 5/6

    Well, I nearly got away with a break even situation but for the last minute penalty by Kurt Morath - (29-0 at 40 minutes) - now I know why I don't bother doing the lottery. :rolleyes:

    France are now -41 1/1 with ladbrokes.

    Despite the general feeling when the teams were announced that -47 was a great bet the handicap is lowering.

    I think betting with underdog against the handicap is great value.. Covered a few bets with it this weekend

    Think the Italy handicap is generous. One thing the Italians don't do it roll over. 30 points is a big number given Australia struggle with goal kicking.

    Guys Argentina 4/1 to beat England on Boyle.

    Is it just me or is that extremely generous?

    A 2 horse race, Argentina play out of their skins in the WC and will be well up for it cause it's England, AND it's on neutral soil.

    Looks amazing odds to me.

    You can get a far better price then 4/1 if you shop around. I don't think they've any chance myself.

    I thought it was very funny to notice in paddy power that Trimble is their second favorite to be Ireland's first try scorer despite being on the bench

    A couple of bets worth serious consideration in England game

    Under 3.5 tries @ 11/8 on Sporting Bet and a yellow card in the match @ 8/13 on William Hill

    I've never used them but they're 6/1 with betfair as well and they definitely do accept laser ;)

    Fionn Carr 6/4 to score a try in 80 mins. First home game with Leinster, if he gets some ball he should score.

    13/2 now. thats as far as they will go looking at the liquidity in the market. Lads its a sin to not have a betfair account, if you like the bit of gambling. Nearly always better prices than the bookies, in markets like these.

    You'll nearly always get the best price in the outright market but I find their handicaps a bit hit or miss.

    Best thing about betfair is you can lay off a bet. A lot of the punters on here will know if they're bets going win/lose/very tight after ten minutes of watching a game and the option to get out has saved me a few sheckles.

    Managed to pull back most of my losses on the ABs match tonight and a live 2nd half bet on Leinster was decisive. May get sense and have a break tomorrow but I doubt it. :D

    Romania +37 was my bet of the week.

    At 33 there's still value to be had though!

    I really liked the look of France -45 earlier.....it's -41 now. Is there something I'm missing?

    Given that the game is in Invercargill so could really restrict any flowing rugby which will play right into the hands of the Romanians. Romania to win by 1-5 @ 150/1 is defo worth a euro or two just in case! Scots to win by 1-12 pts at 12/1 worth a fiver too

    Romania wont beat Scotland. Romania +33 is a good bet. As is Scotland by 21-30 @ 3/1 I think. Can see the Scots get a couple of tries and few kickable penalties, dont think they have what it takes to do much more.

    If the game is more open then I'd imagine Romania might sneak a try and few penalties to keep the margin in check anyway.

    Nice. Had a quid on Scotland to win 6-10 points and got €26 back.

    Also my accums are still on as romania +37 are in most of them.
