    France to MURDER the HC vs Canada this weekend anyone?

    (-33)

    First quarter: France 21 - Canada 3
    Second Quarter: France 21 - Canada 17
    Third Quarter: Jamie Cudmore proclaims that all the real French now live in Montreal
    Fourth quarter France 68 - Canada 17

    All jokes aside France could litterally do anything against anyone.

    Il be backing Russia straight win at 12/5 against US tomo, and Russia +8 at Evs. Both with PP. Think the US will be tired after the weekend, have made basically no changes and the Russians will be out to avenge the Churchill Cup game and will be fresh, I saw the CC game and it was a well matched cracker. US look to have improved but Im confident the Russians will have too, they have been in camp for quite a while I believe with former Glaws coach Kingsley Jones in charge.

    Iv been waiting to back this one since the competition started.

    Saw the CC game too, Russia look to be on an upward trajectory alright. Word of warning though the USA didn't have any of their big guns playing that day and still won.

    You're spot on with the fatigue factor

    What's everyone's thoughts on NZ vs Japan? AB lineup is pretty strong while Japan have named a second string team (10 changes from last week). If weather conditions are ok I can see the ABs putting up a score.

    NZ -58 at 10/11 on PP. Thoughts?

    The ONLY problem I see there is with conversions, kicking stats have been down all tournament. You would be assuming the AB can run in 10 tries and convert at least 50% of them kicks to beat that spread and that's if Japan don't score at all.

    Although there could be MANY under the posts scores if they let rip on Japan so could be worthwhile. So far though its the tournament of the underdogs beating the spread.:D

    my first though is use oddschecker.com
    where you can get 10/11 in stan james -54pts 4 pts is a big difference for the same price.
    The all blacks really are playing for places so there should be no let up even if they are winning well.
    Missed the France Japan game so have not seen the japs in play have they a scrum?
    Cannot see the all blacks letting in soft tries the pressure is kinda off after the build up of the first game.
    They have loads of quality in the backs so id have a small bet -54pts cant see them scoring less than 65pts and cannot see japan hitting double figures

    Anybody having a punt on the Russia vs USA game? The bookies and most pundits favour USA but having watched the Russia vs Italy A game in the Churchill Cup I can't help but feel that there could just be a slight chance of an upset. PP have Russia at 12/5 but like the Scottish match, it's probably one to avoid - should be a cracker though. :D

    carter is out which means Japs by +10 :D

    I hink he meant that if he was going for NZ +54 he would need the price to fall to NZ +44 to make him as confident as he would be

    Could be very tight. 22/1 for the first draw of the tournament is worth a couple Euro to cover yourself I'd say.

    Clever 6/1 for man of the match, the guy is a hero plain and simple. If this is the game USA are targeting for a win then I imagine we're in for one hell of a performance from him.

    Also Clever first try scorer each way @ 12/1. If USA get the jump on them in the first 10-15 minutes and camp near the line he'll be backing himself to get over.

    Thats where my tenner is goin anyway.

    I'd be very doubtful on the Japan one tbh. Second string Japan against an almost full strength NZ team in NZ? Can't see anything other than a landslide win for the Kiwis. Mind you, my spread bets so far have been awful!

    Good luck with the accum anyway.

    luckily russia changed the kicker for their last penalty to cover the +8, the other lad was a farce

    This could be daft but 10e on Japan +36 5/1

    I hope that you've wasted your €10 - even with the withdrawal of Carter, McCaw, Dagg and Muliaina - I'll be seriously pissed if the boys don't bury Japan.

    The forecast is for rain and the Hamilton webcam http://www.hamiltonweather.co.nz/ shows things looking pretty miserable. The stadium doesn't have a roof so Japan (+55) at evens might be safer.

    Burning money cannot see the blacks scoring less than 65 and see how hard Tonga had too work for 1 try cannot see japs scoring 10 pts why i lumped on all blacks -54pts at evens bet365


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,053 ✭✭✭Gracelessly Tom


    Lumped on NZ -54 @evens. Have been getting these badly wrong so far so anyone else who backed them should be fearful for their money!;)
