Rugby world cup

[Poisec]

Just curious, not a favorite sport on this forum but exciting competition nonetheless.

Outright market has New Zealand at 2.40 and South Africa at 5.60.
I like the South Africa bet, feel like it will be between these two teams (they also meet in the group stage btw).

Any rugby connoisseurs here, please show up

England/USA play 1st game. How does the US stack up internationally? Probably not that good.

Not sure what that spread is but it should be somewhere around 18-22 imo

England plays Tonga first and the spread is 40.5, so I am guessing will be above 30 points against USA.

Sportsbet have the spread at England -38.5

Yes, makes sense.

England vs Tsonga spread has moved to 39.5, maybe worth betting on Tonga +39.5, it's on their continent and England could take it easy after a comfortable lead.

A good first bet perhaps, on Argentina @ 2.12 over a fragile France.

Japan vs Russia, today.

I will go with Russia +39.5 pts @ 2.00 (+100).

Some Japanese players have confessed in interviews lately they are very nervous during practice, because of the huge pressure of this event held at home. They will win today, but Russia is a well organized team and I will believe they can lose the match by less than 39 pts.

I gone with the 1 to 10 point spread Japan win

Good effort from Russia in the first half, hope they have enough in the tank for the next 40 minutes

Japan beating South Africa 4 years ago must be one of the most insane upsets I have seen in any sport.

Should hit, Japan 13 pts ahead with 15 minutes to go.



edit: final score 30-10.
