Rugby League World Cup 2013

Nice input. I really can't wait for the hits in this one, think is is going to be the most brutal game of the WC. Kiwis have already singled out the Burgess lads in the media and you know they won't step down.... Warea-Hargraves and co v Sam Burgess and co, bring it on!

Bugger it I don't need money on this, lets hopefully see a great game and some points because I HATE betting unders in games I'm eager to see.

**Mase of Base** · 11-23-13, 08:01 AM

Went with the under 43.5 1.5U & Eng +8.5 1U.

One more thing - the two most important players on the park for the Kiwis are Issac Luke and Kieran Foran. They will not win if both of these two are not at their best. England forwards are as big and mean as kiwis, they will need Luke's runs out of dummy half and also Foran's calm head (many loose cannons on kiwi team) and expert tactical kicking if they are to win.

Sonny Bill Williams ......

What a try by the Kiwis!

**nzgamma** · 11-23-13, 08:50 AM

Hell yeah. Bit worried though. We playing like crap.

**the tross** · 11-23-13, 09:14 AM

Man this is intense.

**Optional** · 11-23-13, 09:19 AM

Nice defense from the Poms

**Cornelius** · 11-23-13, 09:37 AM

Over is toast but far out the poms are playing extremely well

**selte** · 11-23-13, 09:53 AM

When I played over 42.5 and ML-bets @ Pinnacle, what happens when there's overtime?

**JM92** · 11-23-13, 09:53 AM

I don't know much about rugby but I feel like I've just watched a buzzer beater to get it from 98-99 to 100-99. And we had both the over 199.5 and the 99 team ML.

**Cornelius** · 11-23-13, 09:56 AM

It's exactly that. Been such a bad few days for me. Been losing last min or by the hook

**vasilli07** · 11-23-13, 09:56 AM

What a finish!!!

I had 38.5 just to add insult to injury. oh well. its been the same around here all week. I've gone from up 6 units from the start of the nba season to down 8 units right now which is the most I've ever been since I started taking betting as more than just a recreational thing. This was just brutal .

Same same. I've had a week of bad beats.. Hope it turns around soon. It was a very good game of rugby though.

**sweepem** · 11-23-13, 10:07 AM

Lucky win by NZ. Australia should smash them in the final. Hoping for a decent line(-10,-12).

**plekz** · 11-23-13, 10:13 AM

How bad do you expect Australia to blow out Fiji now? last game only posted 30+ try's for Australia but i assume they probably rested a few players that game?

**sando** · 11-23-13, 10:28 AM

Australia v Fiji

1.2* Fiji team total Under 6.5 (-120/$1.83 Sportsbet)

Ok lads World Cup back on tonight with two semi finals and the match everyone has been waiting for (NZ v England).

70,000+ fans at Wembly stadium, wish I was there...

NZ @ England - Semi Final 1

2* Over 42 (-110/$1.90 Luxbet)
0.5* England ML (+236/$3.36 Pinnacle)

Sando: Just some food for thought. I read through the thread and the general consesus was that England would put up a good fight, keep it a close match or even possibly win straight up. I do understand why we would bet the money line for great value. But...why not murder the spread and take full advantage on max units for a more sound investment? Like make it a four or even possibly a five unit play on the points?

Thoughts are greatly appreciated as I want us all to make $

You could bet 100 units now that you know the result.

Do I really need to elaborate further? This is no hindsight is 20/20 situation. This has direct implications on the future moving forward.

**Keelan** · 11-25-13, 03:00 AM

the line for Australia -8.5 isn't bad. what are your thoughts?

**sando** · 11-26-13, 05:47 PM

Getting in early for the final...

Australia v NZ

3* Australia -8.5 (+100/$2.00 Bet365)

*Will add a write up bit later. Australia is the play here - 100%

Couldn't agree more...

People thinking this will be like 2008 because of SBW but don't see it happening.

DD aussie win paying only $2.15 so if that doesn't tell you who books think will win then I don't know what will...

GL tonight Sando and also on Aussies -8.5 here (albeit at $1.84. Silly me waited to get juiced here)...

**bartlomiej1978** · 11-30-13, 05:56 AM

Sando I know 3* is a good bet in your rating, but I want to play big money, is over 40,5 better or?I can't see NZ loosing by more than 1 try

Damn it, Aussie -8.5 now -118 on my book. Should have bet earlier. Do you think this will drop or go up before gametime?

**Ghenghis Kahn** · 11-30-13, 06:54 AM

bovada still has this at -8 -115 but it's at $150 max.

RLWC Final Stats Bets (Found at LUXBET)

Mannering over 30.5 tackles -expected ~35 tackles
Tamou over 20.5 tackles -expected 24 tackles
whare under 75.5 metres - expected 55m
RTS under 145.5 metres - expected 110m

i've the research and plays are based on historical performance indexed by minutes played and scoreline in game. Look back again after final team lists have been released. Plays may change depending on composition of final teams.

GL!

**lordkai35** · 11-30-13, 08:19 AM

Man of the match
Iam expecting the match to be quite close hence i will be going for a forward to get MOTM

If Australia win it will be Smith or Gallen. Leaning smith because he is the only forward to have played 80min. He will rake up the most tackles for Aus and is captain. If Aus stops Nz's big forwards he will be their man. Gallen will put in a big performance, expect 30+ tackles and 130metres. The problem with gallen and motm is that he tends to be overshadowed by the big four.

If NZ win it will be SBW. There is no doubt he is their standout forward and everything he does has a touch of class that is dangerous. We saw how good he was during the NRL grand final single handedly carrying his team in the second half. in the first half, he will be over enthusiastic and might miss a couple of tackles but if NZ are too win, it will be on the back on SBW.

What do you guys think about Australia vs Wales today in Rugby Union? Wales has some really good players but Australia has shown that once again a struggling top 3 Southern Hemisphere team will still own the Northern Hemisphere.

Australia -1 looks solid.

Aussies have looked like a revitalized team under new coach Ewen Mckenzie and expecting them to win here comfortably.

Good call aussie backers. Thumped the kiwis here...

**sando** · 11-30-13, 05:22 PM

Australia far too good as predicted...

Final Record

14-10 +11.38 units

**the tross** · 11-30-13, 06:54 PM
