RUGBY BETTING THREAD

[premierstone]

Havn't a clue as I'm only out of bed. Why are you such an angry young man ?

Angry?? Not angry at all actually had a great laugh reading back through your posts as if you actually knew what you were shiteing on about. So who was this source in the English camp that told you Foden would be starting or did you just make that up to look cool on dinternet??

You're definetely angry given you're behaviour here and on other threads where you attacked Sickpuppy. You're harassing me now over an inaccurate prediction I made and for reporting a source that turned out to be inaccurate. You're a strange one allright but sure 'tis the internets

[Guest]

well the word today is that Kearney rolled an ankle/knee in training.

Might we see the return of Zebo to full back with Earls promoted to the wing?

Would make sense Zebo has a massive boot and would love too see him get plenty of ball in open territory=broken play.

Let's hope Kearney was just let sit out training as a precaution. As well as being probably the best full back in the NH we need him to play a leadership role in the back 3 on Saturday

notice betpack(hacketts and co) are offering money back if ireland win the 6n,best price @ 2/1 on england btw,didnt see the t & cs,but will only guarantee a hundred quid most of the time.

Nothing to offer but slagging why not throw an opinion on something up instead of slating others?
What is it with Tipp people odd balls.
No harm in being wrong wont get castrated or anything.
Think this one thread had the least amount of handbags and noise others have.

Went to reopen my betfair account apparently my username is sheeplover.

It was a very productive, friendly thread until Premierstone intervention. If we just ignore him I'm sure he'll give up on this thread. Guys like him need attention to survive

Any edges in HT/FT double result betting on windy days?

If the odds on TeamA HT/TeamB FT are say 5/1 on the coupon, would the odds change after the coin toss has been made.

Any stats on grounds most likely to have a second half turnaround - instinct would suggest it would be more likely at say the Galway Sportsgrounds then the Aviva?

I don't have any stats but yes I would imagine weather conditions play a bigger role at the Sportsgrounds than any other ground in Ireland or the UK. The old Landsdowne Road was notorious for its swirling wind which the kickers hated too. Since the Aviva was developed and the ground is fully enclosed the wind doesn't play such an important role
Interesting topic you've brought up though, last Friday would have been a great example for Ireland ht England ft

I hope the pair of ye are using adequate protection, I hear than Aids thing can be quite nasty

lol I see ye even covering for each other in bbv yesterday lol out loud either two right sad individuals or the worst muti accounting ever which is it???

I don't remember anyone being rude to you or make these sort of disgusting remarks. This is after your attack on Sickpuppy the other day and other little outbursts. As I said, you may want to retreat from the keyboard for a while.

No more personal attacks on here please folks, i've removed one post entirely and dont want to have to get rid of more

use the ignore feature if you dont want to read someones posts. I wont put up with continual sniping or abuse on this thread.

[amberleaf]

had a good look at the wales/ireland last night,slight worry about the wings perhaps,have par with the backs,ireland ahead in the pack/lineout,if i'm right ireland has to be worth a decent bet(right or wrong?)if ireland play to their strengths,keeping it tight when in possession,they must have a serious chance of winning this game.

anyways stuck my tenner on sob @ 9/1 for the man of the match,johnnys a bit skinny @ 6/1 for me,will be pissed if Cian Healy pops up @ 16s tho.

Visser is ridiculously prolific, 10/3 anytimme sounds good. I don't normally get involved in MOM markets but I think it may well be an Irish forward winning the prize tomorrow if the match plays out the way I hope it does. I was thinking of backing Seanie but decided on Cian Healy instead at 16/1. He just might reeceive a little less attention than SOB so I expect a lot of carries and he may pop up for a try. He's in very good form at the moment too. Love the 6Nations can't wait for it to start tomorrow

[amberleaf]

tend get the motm up every now and again for some reason clicked on tommy bowe last year @ 33s in the french game was the highlight,hopefully more of the same over the next 6 weeks or so.

[kpnuts]

Anyone who fancies Ireland, just spotted decent enhanced treble on Coral: Ire/Eng/Fra @ 19/10. otherwise it's best priced 17/10 (Ladbrokes).

Don't usually back Ireland but think our pack could give them a right mauling & if we can get ahead early we may win well.
Backed us small -10pts @ 11/2 and -13pts @ 8/1 (both on Ladbrokes)
Did modest Ire/Sco+16/Fra treble earlier in the week @ 3.88/1.
Also bigger bet on Ireland >9.5 6N tries @ 10/11 and a dart at Zebo top 6N TS @ 25s.
And decent punt on France Slam @ 15/2.

[The Situation]

Everyone seems to like Ireland today, bit of a shift in price. Got to go t'other way so.

[Aya14]

@conspicuous
stuck to my word 3 quid on Heaslip and 2 on Parisse top tryscorer at 100's and 200's respectively
Also had 5 on Zebo at 16/1 for the lolz. All prices with PP.
Didn't back Bofana Fofana because he is like Ashton, just too short for a mug punter like me.

Also did Ireland,Italy +12 and England -15 treble at a little over 9.25 on Bet365.

Gl everyone

people think the Welsh lineup isn't strong, I see 12 first choice players when I look at the teamsheet.

All depends on the first 20 minutes, if we come out playing low risk rugby we'll be bum squeezing the whole 80.

If we come out and play quick rugby we'll be able to knock Wales out of their comfort zone early. Keep the crowd quiet, keep Biggar keen with a some good positioning from Zebo and Gilory (this might be the toughest part as its the only part of their games I'm not delighted with).

I really think that Wales missed a stroke by keeping Tipuric on the bench. Shindler picked to play the lineout, but we don't have an proactive defensive lineout, so no real need.

When it was seen that Henry was benched with POM playing 6 instead of a SOB 6, Henry 7 I would have thought they'd have realised that doing Warburton 6, Tipuric 7 would have made all the sense in the world to play a seriously attritional backrow vs that setup.

We've gotten lucky that they've made that decision tbh.

Still, I don't see it happening for us today unfortunately. Unless we can get a plan together that flies in the face of all previous Kidney-ball teams.

Gonna be interesting!

[V for Vendetta]

V for Vendetta England are favs for grand slam and championship and Ireland are small favorites to win next weekend? Value??

I backed England at 6/1 last week and they're now slashed to 3/1 best price which I don't understand at all. They still have 3 massive matches to play even if the bookies are taking Italy as a given, which is no longer looking to be the case. Taking PP for example they have England priced at 10/11 to beat Ireland and 13/5 to slam, which means you are getting slightly under evens for a combined treble of England to beat France, Italy and Wales.

Either that's a mugs bet or England are totally overpriced to beat Ireland. I personally think it might be a bit of both and I now face a dilemna ahead of next weekend. Given the decent sum of money I return if England win the 6N and GS, I thought it wise to back Ireland next weekend. Having looked at markets for this game, it no longer looks like such a good idea. I could back Ireland at evens but this is roughly the same price I could lay England to win the Championship. The bet on Ireland doesn't insure against the GS either because England could still lose to France or Wales.

To complicate things further I think England at odds against are ludicrous value to beat us next weekend and as patriotic as I am, I find it hard to turn it down. Anyway what do people think my best course of action is here? I could do with some advice from the number crunchers. My gut instinct is to back England to win next Sunday, let the 6N bet ride but lay England at 3/1 for the slam

I would wait till Friday when team is named because there could be a few out with injury so Ireland could drift tiny bit.

Personally I taught England be 4/6 for this match never taught we be that short

4/6 was exactly what I thought England would be too and was hoping to back Ireland around 11/8. When bookies line is so far from my own I usually have a big punt

England are Favorites on Betfair at moment and Ireland are just over evens.

If 1or2 players are out injured we probably be 6/5 come Friday on Betfair

It looks like Earls is the only genuine injury concern and that shouldn't affect the odds even if he's missing

No dont think so.
They have a decent bench but have a poor record of late in Dublin.
Personally id expect a bg French backlash -8pts to batter a low on coinfidence Wales.

What bookies ?

France half time/full time is available at 4/6 or 4/7 most places and I would be very confident it comes in given France are on the backlash and usually start very strong in Paris.

There's a decent argument for England beating Ireland but I'm not as keen as I was earlier in the week. Tuilagi has been left on the bench and I think Ireland will have a plan to exploit the English back 3. It's a massive occasion for a lot of the young English players and we have to take their ability to handle the occassion on trust

Italy have only once won on the road in the 6N. They have only once won back to back matches. In 13 championship encounters between Scotland and Italy the home side has won 10. The stats point towards a Scotland win tomorrow and Italy have a 6 day turnaround after their heroics against France. Scotland @ 8/13

[bohsman]

PP, was an emailed offer.

Cheers, have gone with that conspicuous.

[steve]

the drop goal is quite a bit overpriced with PP at 15/8 for the England Ireland game and is quite out of line with the other bookmakers.even a small arbitrage opportunity if you are that way inclined backing yes with PP and no with Ladbrokes

Italy outright at 7/4 looks huge!

Based on last week's performance yes it is. However when you consider they have only won 1 away fixture in 13 years of 6N rugby it doesn't look so good. Only once have they won 2 matches in succession too[2007]. I'm not saying they won't win, they're up against a pretty weak Scottish team who should have conceded 50+ to England last week. However Italy have yet to prove that last week's victory wasn't a flash in the pan, their out half Oquera is a bit of a journeyman who gave his performance of a lifetime last week. They also only have a 6 day turnaround after such a draining match as last Sunday's.

On both of those.

Stuck 30 notes on Italy at 3.0 on Betfair. Scotland being just so bad and Italian tails up makes it good value, despite the history imo. I actually don't think last week's match was THAT draining. The pretty much bossed the French.

If Best, Ross, Murray or Sexton have to go off early tomorrow there's a massive drop off in quality a critical position. I don't like Earls coming on from the bench either, he admits himself he suffers from nerves and it takes him time to get into a game. England have serious impact in the form of Hartley, Lawes, Care and Tuilagi. Our intensity has to be right tomorrow, if not it could be a heavy defeat

[eagle eye]

If England win tomorrow I think somebody from their pack will be MoM, if Ireland win it will be our full back.
