    Thanks qban! That will be the new strategy! Take 1 option and hedge it at halftime if needed. Only problem is taking totals since my TAB doesn't offer totals live.

    I've been following the NCAA through boom booms thread and tailed one of his totals. He knows what's up.

     I'll take you up on Nebreska. Thanks qban!! Hope it comes off

    I'm thinking about putting on a multi with the three matches (not the NZ match) because they should all be close, bloody hard to pick though.

    First thoughts are for the slight favourites but I'll wait until the team lists are out:
    England 1 - 12
    Ireland 1 - 12
    Australia 1 - 12

    Thoughts?

    That'd be a big paying multi. Aus over SA?? Even with all their injuries?

    England could win big.
    Ireland 1-12 is decent, but Wales more than capable.
    South Africa wins.

    Thinking about taking an alternate line of AB's -35.5 @2.60. Argentina have looked poor and those odds just look far too tasty to give up.

    Any thoughts on this? And also the line for Ireland is -2.5. Might be low enough to take tbh

    Yeah, even with Australia's injuries, they still field the second best backline in the competition, Digby Ioane is back so their backline will still consist of Genia, Cooper, Ioane, Barnes, Ashley-Cooper, O'Connor and Beale - That's pretty much their top team. Their forwards are also very decent, with Pocock back and Sharpe in some good form too.

    I think people are overlooking the French because they lost to Tonga, they could very well put some heat on England which is why I'll still back 12 and under.

    Really can't decide between Ireland/Wales but I'm almost leaning towards Wales now, will really have to wait to see the team lists.

    No one is "overlooking" the French, imo....just that no one ever backed them in the first place.

    They are notorious head cases, especially in the big moments, and whenever Lievremont does a couple switcheroos with the starting XV, as he ALWAYS DOES, the French do their heads in.  Just like the camp imploded days before the Tongan match.  And look what happened?

    England, for better or for worse, always has their heads in the right place when they step onto the pitch, especially since Johnno took over from Robinson.  Sure, the english look stale as yesterday's bread right now, but as you know, rugby is 90% above the shoulders and England has that in spades over their cross-channel rivals right now.

    England -3 all day, all night for me.
