    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. :D

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


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


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


  • Registered Users Posts: 296 ✭✭Leinstertomas


    Think Munster will easily cover -10 spread


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    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.

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

    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.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,047 ✭✭✭Bazzo


    Was anyone on a sweep for the provinces this weekend?

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


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


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


  • Subscribers Posts: 40,943 ✭✭✭✭sydthebeat


    ACCA For the weekend:

    ulster win
    munster win
    leinster win
    connacht +21

    @8.3 / 1

    plus a yankee on same


    i also have mony -7 versus glaws (already drifted to -8)


  • Subscribers Posts: 40,943 ✭✭✭✭sydthebeat

    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.


  • Subscribers Posts: 40,943 ✭✭✭✭sydthebeat


    Mcintyre anytime @9/1


  • Registered Users Posts: 296 ✭✭Leinstertomas


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

  • Registered Users Posts: 12,973 ✭✭✭✭prawnsambo


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


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,363 ✭✭✭✭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. :D


  • Subscribers Posts: 40,943 ✭✭✭✭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

    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.
