    No, it's money back if the opposition number scores, not odds matched. So it's actually more unlikely that mcnally will score first


    So I think best has a better opportunity to score from a driving maul than mcnally.

    2 for 1 First Tryscorer Special: Get paid as a winner if you pick the right number but the wrong team • Back a First Tryscorer and we’ll pay out if the opposition’s number scores first • Applies to bets on the First Tryscorer market for Scotland v Ireland, Italy v Wales & England v France, on the 9th & 10th of February 2019 • Max Stake €/£10 for qualifying bets • Does not include E/W bets • Bonus winnings will be paid at the lower odds of the two players e.g. if you back a player at 5/1 and the opposition number scores first at 7/1 then you will be paid at 5/1 • Applies to bets placed pre-match only •

    All over the place again today but at least I am still only using my pot from last weekend. Even backed a horse - can't resist the odds. :D

    I feel the handicap has definitely gone too big at 14 having a decent play on France with the points.

    Also with the insurance of the opposite number and money back if may scores playing
    Picamoles 22/1
    Huget 18/1
    Basteraud 35/1
    First try

    Basteraud 7/1 anytime too

    Survived the Scottish game a couple of Euros down thanks to live betting. Today the whole pot is on tryscorers - Johnny May and Chris Ashton both at Evens.

    Trying to recoup some losses from the Ireland band, I got on Italy +20 at half time yesterday.

    Putting winnings on England - 14 today.

    I think if England got a couple of tries early on it could turn very messy for the French

    I like the Basta 7/1 anytime bet too. This feels like a game he'll be fired up for.

    Agreed. Just heard that England have scored a try within the 1st 5 mins in 3 of their last 4 games.
    Nevertheless will be going with France +14!
    Still have the wise old heads there at 2, 8&9. And the power.

    England are only two point favourites going to Cardiff. I'd say that's likely to move to 4-5 points so if you fancy England I'd jump on now. Myself, I'm wary of that game. In the Gatland Era I'd always give Wales a good shout.

    Italy +14 at home to France in the last round of games looks very tempting

    Back to square one again and the nag came in second - if only I understood the concept of Each Way betting. :D

    Green tinted glasses aside, Italy +30 at home to Ireland looks very good. Italy have covered their points in their opening two games and Ireland are still making enough errors where I could see them not running up a massive score.

    Ulster +3 at the Ospreys looks decent, pending lineups.

    The Pro14 odds tend to not move as quickly.

    They set their spread early and then let the money dictate.... so if you get on early enough you get the better odds.

    BTW its gone out to -30 now

    Weather doesn't look too conducive to a 30 point spread at the minute
