Seems like the underdogs with a handicap start have won most games. I had double yesterday on Fiji +14 and Canada +37.
Given you have a situation like the Canada game where the other team can win by a mile with a bonus point and still lose comfortably on the handicap, it just seems logical to me as someone with less rugby knowledge than most. I got +59.5 at 6/4 on Betfair for Georgia and in the shop today I saw them evens +57 which suggests to me the more informed punters are on New Zealand, but we shall see. To overcome a 59.5 handicap they'd have to probably get 66 points against a team who are far from terrible. I've not had a look yet but I'm told England are favourites tomorrow. Apart from home advantage, which didn't do us much good last time, that seems odd to me.
We have a good recent record against Australia (think we have won 4 of the last 5, whereas Wales have won 0 of the last 9 against them). But I'm not betting on England tomorrow.
I'm an old bloke Wats, enlighten me. The All Blacks are having an iffy game with their handling, and Georgia are defending valiantly, but they still look a level above any of the other teams I've seen.
I knew that! I am clearly senile. Or am I? Thought for a blissful moment McCaw had been called offside then, but it was the scrum half. To steal from Alex Ferguson, Mccaw was born offside.
Supporting QPR for 40 years will do that to you. I'm only 20 years in and keep finding myself booking trips to San Francisco to jump off the bridge.
I actually got it trimmed today as it was looking a bit too hipster for my liking. Our very own Charlie A has the hipster look about him.
The two guys with the bikes seem decent. The gay Welsh bloke will probably use his debit card to check in to a Premier Inn.
