    France wing Vincent Clerc has raised concerns about the state of the Stade de France pitch due to the country's icy weather conditions.

    Clerc believes Saturday's Six Nations clash between les Bleus and Ireland could be rendered unplayable and the pitch dangerous as temperatures are expected to fall below zero when the match kicks off in Paris on Saturday night.

    "If it's minus 7 (degrees Celsius) on Saturday, there is reason for concern over the frozen pitch," Clerc told Reuters.

    "It was already frozen when we played Italy (last Saturday). The parts near the touchline were frozen," he added.

    The French federation confirmed that hot-air blowers and covers will be used to keep the pitch temperature at around 3 degrees Celsius.

      Nothing grabs me in the 6N this weekend except French winning margins/tryscorer bets.

      Malzieu/Clerc @9/1 for 1st try is decent, but I think that our dodgy centre partnership may spring a leak allowing Fofana/Rougerie..most likely Rougerie (11kg heavier and 5 inches taller than Earls) to get through a gap, and I can see Medard coming off the shoulder to stroll in...such negative thinking I know, but...its 12/1. Take your pick of 80 mins tryscorers..Clerc@7/4 given his record against us, the fecker is almost guaranteed to shnake over!
      Elsewhere, Mike Phillips is due a try and @4/1 is backed to get over in 80 mins for a 5 pointer aswell.

        Very surprised to see the line in the France vs Ireland game shifting as though a lot went on Ireland +9.

        Maybe the market thinks Parra is a big step down from Yash or that Earls is a big step up frim McFadden

              any one looking for a bet at working mans odds could do worse than sticking a few quid on george north for the man of the match in the wales/scotland @ 16/1 with boyles/powers.that is great value imo!

                  saw 2 player rankings on last weeks game v ireland,he scored highest in both.also the home broadcaster picks the man of the match,ie bbc wales.they were surprized last week when rte picked phillips over north,all depends on the day and can be a bit of a Lottery.but i reckon theres worse 16/1 shots out there!

                                        first bet of the weekend done,in the pro 12 game scarlets v treviso.a strong looking welsh bench and the chance that traviso will shut up shop in the first half.i,ve gone for the higest scoring half the 2nd half, for a decent punt @ 5/6 with laddies

                                          Wales were pretty dire against Scotland and should have lost out to a woeful Irish performance as well don't forget.

                                          IMO, Wales must be the most publicly overrated team in the tournament at the moment.

                                            fair point,but this is not the strongest english team ever.from the teams who have played two games i'd go wales,scotland,england & italy in that order.whatever about wales being overrated think scotland are underrated if anything,they had two tries disallowed that on a good day could changed the whole story of the 6 nations so far.could be a sting in the tail on sunday.the history tells us that wales have some sort of Physiological thing when it comes to winning at Twickenham and england could end up winning this,but if they do i think it wont be by much,on the other hand this welsh team have the attacking ability to put a big score on this english team,i took a little of the -1 wales early and hopefully might lay off if the line goes to -5/-6,i've also gone for a spread bet on wales -2.5 at a tenner per point,reckon the risk v reward is pretty good here.to be fair the bookies are bang on so far,maybe the winning margin based on the bookmakers index is the way to go!

                                            edit:see Manusamoa Tuilagi is in at 13,really looking forward to this game

                                              btw anyone who plays the ingame/betting in running markets,wales have conceded an average of 7 points when one of their players is in the sin bin

                                                I actually think the England team is better balanced at 9 and 10 now also and they are big enough guys that the welsh wont be able to just use power in the backs.

                                                Welsh back row edge it but English tight 5 better imo. Played in England so I would expect to see an English win tbh. Going to be a good match I think tho and the best contest of the weekend.

                                                    was thinking about italy +7 in the half-time hcp @ 10/11,but have gone for ireland to win the first half 1-7 points @ 23/10 with powers

                                                          ireland +9 with sj/hacketts/powers the best out there right now,or france - 7.i'm going for the ireland +9 here,think the scots might have shown us that france are beatable last weekend and if ireland dont shoot the load in the first half the +9 is worth a shot.
                                                          in the bigger price bets going to stick a tenner on tommy bowe @ 11/1 to be the last try scorer,the thinking here is that bowe could move centre later in the game,hopefully break the gameline,has the pace to score from any part of the field i reckon
                                                          no prices up for the man of the match yet,but might have a look at Julien Bonnaire,my thinking here is that if the irish kick away possession,the french will murder them in the Counterattack.the french also looked to sort out the line out,would think that ireland will keep it tight,if this is so,no better man than bonnaire to try and overturn the ball,saw a stat that half the french tries were scored from turnover ball,should get decent odds and worth a score of my hard earned!

                                                            no prices up for the man of the match yet,but might have a look at Julien Bonnaire,my thinking here is that if the irish kick away possession,the french will murder them in the Counterattack.the french also looked to sort out the line out,would think that ireland will keep it tight,if this is so,no better man than bonnaire to try and overturn the ball,saw a stat that half the french tries were scored from turnover ball,should get decent odds and worth a score of my hard earned!
                                                            Agree with a lot of that. Harinordoquy is my tip for MOM...always plays well against us the fecker...will be heavily involved in the lineout AND open play, can play the 7 role aswell as anyone and has a decent tryscoring record aswell.

                                                                          powers have the man of the match market up,Harinordoquy is 10/1, Bonnaire @ 14/1,was hopeing for bigger prices tbh,on the irish side,sexton is 9/1 with sob @ 12s but tommy bowe is 33/1,big price for a player in great form,imo,and is a potential game changer,but then again hard to see a french tv station giving the motm to a irish player.stuck a score on bonnaire @ 14s,with a tenner on bowe @ double carpet.with a tenner on same for last try scorer @ 11s
                                                                          also a decent bet on ireland + 8 @ evens

Kerr-Barlow was unreal around the fringes. Chiefs did remarkably well considering Masaga, Leonard,Afeaki(and his backup Smith) are all out for long spells. Nani Williams and Robinson were on fire too. Interesting that the two quietest players were Kahui and SBW in the centre(esp Kahui) Cruden was on form with the boot too.

                                                                            Just finished watching the rebels, i fancied them at +7 even without Beale & Mortlock( as Mark Gerrard was FB and JOC at 12), but they were terrible at times. They gave up 4 tries within 42 mins. Cipriani was poor enough with his kicking and didnt create anything when they had ball. O Connor placekicked well but the rebels only try was a Penalty try from a maul. Overall it was frustrating as they gave up ball in bad areas and Tahs went in for easy enough tries.

                                                                            Comment

                                                                                  Overall Scotland have come a long way but they gave away so much possession through unforced errors. Basically still a second tier team that have a decent pack and now a good half back partnership.

                                                                                  Right game plan but if you only have one back who you can trust to run a creative line than you are not really ready to compete at the top.

                                                                                  They were also helped by Frances defensive strategy not working, not being implemented properly or not followed fully but was a mess on the day and some of the holes were massive.

                                                                                        I reckoned Highlanders +7 was value alright \(considering form , home advantage and crusaders not the same team without Carter and McCaw), but Crusaders esp when Guildford came on looked very threatening out wide. But infairness super performances from Phil Burleigh and Adam Thompson as usual. Decent game to watch though. Highlanders win 3-2 on tries.

Mike Harris proved the real difference between the sides with the placekicking in the ends. Stannard for Force continued his poor kicking display. Reds should have won more comfortably, as they were complacent at times esp for the Pocock try. Force look limited with ball in hand.Good performance by Genia at SH

                                                                                                  43/47/74/52/49/52

                                                                                                  I think it will be a low enough scoring game tbh. ireland will play slow ball into their forwards and look to keep ball, bit like scotland last week only avoiding the unforced errors. backing Ireland myself but not too big stakes.

                                                                                                  Comment

                                                                                                    powers have the man of the match market up,Harinordoquy is 10/1, Bonnaire @ 14/1,was hopeing for bigger prices tbh,on the irish side,sexton is 9/1 with sob @ 12s but tommy bowe is 33/1,big price for a player in great form,imo,and is a potential game changer,but then again hard to see a french tv station giving the motm to a irish player.stuck a score on bonnaire @ 14s,with a tenner on bowe @ double carpet.with a tenner on same for last try scorer @ 11s
                                                                                                    also a decent bet on ireland + 8 @ evens

                                                                                                              in the man of the match,wales v italy,reckon its the same again from the italians,with a bit of a bulldozer job,from the forwards,keeping it tight,with a shite backline, you know your self what to expect,could set things up our old pal north @ 9/1(pp),with wales spreading the ball out wide,could be a good day for the welshman,also north hasnt won the gong yet,and is one of the star boyyiooos in this welsh team
                                                                                                              7/2 for him to score 2 or more tries for a small punt as well imo,hope the fuckker stays on the field this time mind you
                                                                                                              in the ireland/scot game going to stick with rob kearney @ 10/1,is playing great rugby,and has rte Commentator tony ward all excited

                                                                                                              decent bet on france - 7 @ evens(laddies)
                                                                                                              score each on north and kearney plus a score double for the 100/1 shot(go on ya good thing)
                                                                                                              as well as a score on north to score 2 or more tries @ 7/2

                                                                                                                    Had meant to look at that actually, will check it out over the weekend hopefully.
