Shaking things up a bit this week,  Italy ($1.32) Vs Wales ($3.20) kick off the weekend.  Then, England ($2.55) Vs France ($1.48) play an hour later and the next day, Scotland ($2.75) Vs Ireland ($1.42) which, like the other games this week-end, are being more favoured one side over the other.

The tricky one there is Italy v Wales - ok Italy are at home and have improved but
Wales will be hurting from last weekend with no points scored so they will be
out to inflict revenge...but on Italy! Whether Italy can stand the test will be massive.

France and Ireland to win, definitely cant see England beating France and I would like
to see Ireland performing in both halves, not just one half.

Multi bet on all 3 favourites is 2.82, probably worth a shot....

Ireland and Scotland won their games.  As did the Wild Knights, Canon Eagles and Spears Kubota.

Favorites Shizuoka lost their game while all the other previously mention matches will be played soon.

Yea for Scotland it was a win they will be delighted about, getting a win in the first
match sets up the championship nicely. Italy are definitely an improved team, they
have been improving year on year. Scotland too, they have some top class players, they
play Ireland next.

Ireland had a tough first half despite having more possession and slightly
more territory but in the second half they performed better and secured their
bonus point but disappointing that they let England in in the dying minutes with
an easy try to secure their losing bonus point.



Fair play to you with betting on those obscure markets Timelord!

Six Nations

https://www.rugbypass.com/six-nations/fixtures-results/

France and Wales are evenly poised at $1.90 a piece.  I'd like to say Wales will win, but alas, I think France will better them on the day.

It wasn't a thrashing - it was pounding into oblivion by France:



In two days time, Ireland ($1.36) takes on England ($3.20) in the day's other game Scotland takes on Italy.



That was brilliant odds on France, earlier in the week they were unbackable and
Wales were 22.0! which by the looks of it was a realistic odds. France as we
say here "put Rugby out of Wales' heads" - crazy for Wales not to be able to put
points on the scoreboard. France arent as good as the scoreboard points to.



Up next is Scotland v Italy, have to fancy the Scots at home. If it was in Italy
the Italians would certainly have a better chance.

Following that will be a close one between Iteland and England.

In one week from now,  Italy squares off against Wales, England and France face off.  Then, on Monday the 9th, Scotland and Ireland clash.

There's then a two week pause until the 23rd of February.

Super Rugby Pacific

The Waratahs ($1.50) take on the Reds ($2.50) on Monday - the Reds just can't seem to take a trick these days and the odds show it.

Japan League One

Kobe Steel ($12.4) Vs Black Rams ($3.80)
Shizuoka ($1.75) Vs Suntory ($2)
Mitsubishi ($2.90) Vs Spears Kubota ($1.38)
Toyota Verblitz ($2.05) Vs Canon Eagles ($1.72)
Wild Knights ($1.03) Vs Urayasu D-rocks  ($10 !!)
Honda Heat ($3.50) Vs Toshiba Lupus ($1.72)

Premiership Rugby Cup

Cornish Pirates ($6) Vs Gloucester ($1.11) (Gloucester has already won their game)

I actually haven't placed any serious bets this week - just a couple of dollars here and there. Later on, I've put a couple of dollars on each of these games, but no major wagers.

Well the two favourites Leinster and Munster took their wins but the bet on
Edinburgh didnt, they were beaten by the favourites Scarlets.



Anyway we have the lead in week for the Six Nations - finally, it seems like that
was a long wait through January.

This Friday gets the series up and running with France v Wales, odds on
France are closed but if you want to take a gamble on Wales they are 22.0!

I only placed bets on Saturday's game this week with Beziers and Stade Montois being the only two favourites to not win.

Oyonnax, Harlequins, Aurilliac, Angouleme, Nevers and Valance Romans all winning their games.

The Champions Cup takes a break until April but the URC is back on this weekend
with Ospreys v Benetton on Friday. Odds are 1.31 - 3.30, can Benetton create another upset?



absolutely not - not only can they not create an upset they couldnt even score!
Final score 43 - 0.

I've done another 2 bets in the URC, I've gone with Leinster to beat the Stormers
at 1.20 and Munster to beat the Dragons @ 1.22.

These are the only ones I can see with a bit of value while going with favourites.

Scarlets v Edinburgh are playing next, the odds are 1.66 v 2.10, I think Edinburgh
could win this.

La Rochelle's loss to Benetton last weekend in the Champions Cup was a massive
upset. They were favourites to win that and should have won that after a close
encounter with Lei ster the previous weekend.

The Champions Cup takes a break until April but the URC is back on this weekend

The French Top14 and D2 tournaments are on this weekend, La Rochelle play
Lyon, they really need to be winning that.

Yea and last weekend my bet on La Rochelle didnt win, they were beaten by 2
points and had a last minute long range penalty kick but didnt make it, that would
have been a win!



Champions Cup Rugby is on this weekend as is the Challenge cup.

I want to back Leinster ahead of Bath but their odds are bad at 1.09. I think they
are actually in line for some silverware this year with some key players this year
like the All Black Jordie Barrett.

I've gone under 54.5 @ 1.72 on this one.

Toulouse won, as did the Stormers with very short odds.

Biarritz, Agen, Valence Romans, Kobe Steel, Northampton all were favoured to win (sometimes with very short odds) but lost out to their competitors on the day.

A few of the favourites that I've bet on this weekend have lost their matches. Which is good for the spectators who don't know for certain which team will win or lose. But, it's bad for the punters who are hoping for the team they've backed to win.

If it were a certainty one team or the other would win, then no one would feel the need to play.

Yes, and that should go to answering the question posted by darbitmobilerecovery.
Favourites dont always win bar a few top sides. Like every sport at the highest level
there are many factors which are at play and contribute to a win/loss.

My two favourite bets Stormers and Toulouse have won their matches, just hoping
for an upset this evening with La Rochelle winning

Yea I have been meaning to do this approach too, especially if there are half decent
odds on the favourites with also a fair degree of a mismatch in opponents.

This weekend though in the French European Cup I have a wager on La Rochelle to beat
Leinster @ 2.72. La Rochelle are at home and these are two top sides with a lot
of recent history between them.

Two others are on favourites
Stormers to beat Sale @ 1.34
Toulouse to win away to the Sharks @ 1.24

Sometimes it pays to know a lit bit about the various teams. Even the NRL has its upsets - even when one team is top of the ladder and gets thrashed in a much anticipated match up.

This year I'm experimenting with placing wagers on the favourites in the NRL owing to the disparaging difference between the top of the table, the midzone and the bottom of the barrel who should be relegated.

As an experiment I bet on twenty games yesterday in the women's tennis in Australia (betting just on the favourites)... About a quarter of the games the favourite lost.

Hi guys, a little question for you as i see the odds for the games in the post above me, i want to ask you about that.

Is Rugby a ""safe"" to bet sport on favorites? Or is like in any other sport? And as i dont like to bet on the favorites and i like to go more into underdogs, is easy to see some surprise results with good odds?.

For example Racing metro odds to win are 6.5, can have value?

Its pretty much like any other sport really, favourites with low unbackable odds
always win, Favourites with short odds do sometimes get beaten for example
Munster v Saracens above.

Racing Metro to win @ 6.5 - TBH I wouldnt take that, Glasgow Warriors are a much
improved side and are reigning URC champions.

What I might go with is La Rochelle to beat Leinster @ 2.50 - that is wort a bet if
you wanted to try betting against the favourites.
