Betting Thread Part III - Insert witty title here

I've gone for +20, as well as my earlier donation! They beat France by 7 and England by 8, it's not much to ask of Ireland to be within 19.

If anyone gives Ireland any chance at all, they are 28/1 on betfair. That's insane.

I got them at 25/1 yesterday on Betfair and 11/1 earlier in the week (the equivalent of 1 unit on each). My units above are just my PP account. Some people on the exchange are taking a leap of faith laying at those kind of prices! Right now there's €68 layed at 27/1.

Kieran Read anytime @ 3.00 looks great to be honest

If I wasn't an Ireland supporter I'd take that, he seems to pop up in outside channels to run in a try every second game!

According to his profile page (http://www.allblacks.com/index.cfm?layout=playerProfile&playerID=1282) he has scored 15 tries in 60 tests.

Can't find stats but i'd like to see how many tries have been in his last 20 Tests, i'd would imagine better than 1 try in 3

Kieran Read has six tries in his last six tests according to this http://www.espn.co.uk/newzealand/rugby/story/206739.html He's surely worth a punt at 21/10 with PP. I had him last week but missed out against France as I went for Ben Smith instead. Incidentally, the latter is 13/8 for a try on Sunday and is overdue one!

Gracelessly Tom

Have gone

Wales -20 - should cover this comfortably
Ita scr - Arg look a tired and battered side, Italy will be geared up for this.
Aus -11 - Just can't see Scotland scoring enough points to cover this.
RSA -6 - South Africa look in superb form and it should be a try fest.
Ire +20 - Heart ruling head a little but hoping for a close match.

Will do a few anytime scorers in the Wales game for a bit of viewing interest.

Ah well

Cheeky 5 euro on Australia -24.5 at 6.4. Also cheeky, Ireland to win at 24/1. Missed the better odds but that's still too much for an Ireland team that's about as healthy as we've seen it. Of course last year Ireland looked dismal in the first test against NZ but really should have won the second.

Wouldn't touch Italy-Argentina with a 40 foot pole. Very tough to call. Handicap in SA game looks about right as well.

With Jennings out, Treviso look great value to me.

Not that I'd give it a massive endorsement but there's a strong rumour that Tony Pulis has been offered the Crystal Palace job, if anyone is particularly interested. His odds have tumbled. I've thrown a few quid on it at 9/4.

Huzzah.

Judgement Day

Who's a jammy git then, - I went to the pub having backed Australia to get more than 13.5 points in the first half against Scotland - they only managed 13 (!) - and I cursed my luck. When I got home I logged in to Paddy Power only to find that my bet (my whole pot for the weekend) hadn't gone through!! God loves a sinner.

Ugo Monye spacecraft experience

Doubled Ireland +19 with Man City

also had a fiver left in the account so threw it on Ireland to win for the lulz

Buer

50 units starting. 76 units.

1 unit, Marty Moore to score a try in 80 minutes today, 14/1. Really don't see too much value in the betting today.

Judgement Day

Given that I had - in my mind - lost this money yesterday, a little caution to the wind betting is called for.

Damn you Nigel Owens, I'll find out where you live! 50/1 - I had the money spent in the seconds between the two conversions.
