Betting Thread Part III - Insert witty title here

Del.Monte

After the whole RWC I'm a few (very) Euros ahead. I saw today's result coming but still opted for England instead of a nice 9/4 on the Boks.

My unusual, for me, bet on NZ and SA to be leading at HT and FT in each game saved my bacon.

Leinstertomas

Over 4 tries in Scarlets V Cheetahs @15/8 and over 5 @15/4 looks good value to me

thomond2006

So...Munster to win their ERCC pool is 5/1.

Leinstertomas

Think Munster will easily cover -10 spread

I know Agen are second bottom in Top 14, how bad is that squad they announced for the Edinburgh game?

13/5 at home to a poor enough Edinburgh lineup.

I'd be very hesitant to go near betting on a poor French team in the Challenge Cup. They don't give a monkeys.

Yeah, I've come away from it entirely.

Just makes Stade Francais vs Brive an absolute clusterfcuk.

Loafing Oaf

Doing a Frenchie treble on Clermont, La Rochelle and Toulouse to top their pools.

I'm cursed so now Agen will put 50 on them.

Taken leinster -24 @evens

Kelliher anytime @5/6

4 provinces to qualify for the quarter finals 66/1. What do ye think?

I'd be looking for much longer odds than that, considering you can get an acca on the four to win their pools for 500/1

Embra already 21-3 up. Not even HT.

Bazzo

Was anyone on a sweep for the provinces this weekend?

thanks Ronan


my nap for this weekend is monty -7 @evens ..... it will drift out after teams are named.

thomond2006

Saracens -21 might be a good one to look at, pending lineups.

Seems dreadfully short for a Yankee? Even 3 winners doesn't even double your money(roughly working it out in my head)

yeah i generally dont do yankees on rugby, but i just threw it on after the acca.

if all four come in its about a 4/1 return,

any individual loss still has me in profit, though starting about 60% going down to 25%

Gone up to -28 which is probably underrating Saracens a bit. Ospreys' lineup are going to get killed.

sydthebeat

Mcintyre anytime @9/1

Leinstertomas

Gone for Ulster, Leinster and Munster at just over 3/1

Useless gimps

It hasn't been a good competition for the punter so far. A lot of away wins and quite a few surprises.

Del.Monte

It's worked out well for this punter - no money this weekend therefore no losing bets and able to enjoy both the Leinster and Munster games stress free.

sydthebeat

current open bets


France for 6 Nations @ 12/1 (currently 7/1)

Bristol for Premiership @ 28/1 (currently 14/1)

D Kearney Pro 14 top try scorer @ 15/2


for the weekend coming
Leinster -6
Munster -1
connacht +8
quins +12

all @ 10/11

and small acca @ 12 /1

Del.Monte

Thrown caution to the wind and in the hope that Saracens send a weakened I've taken Munster -2 @ 10/11 and I'm tempted to go for Northampton to win at 15/8.
