    Rugby World Cup 2015 Kickoff at 3:00 pm EST. Let's make some bones.
    Not an expert, but have had pretty good success betting Rugby. Going to research and looking for thoughts and other's predictions here.

    First and only match today is England vs. Fiji. Being held in England and they are huge favorites here around -24.5 AH and at least -3000 most places on the ML.

    After reading up it seems like both sides are strong and in pretty good form. England should win comfortably, but they can certainly do that and not cover the -24.5, so my first play will be:

    Fiji +24.5

          You're right Rudy.
          This is unacceptable.
          I don't know how I missed this before the game stated

                Yep, needed the hook to get the W here. They can't all be this sharp, right?


                So far just looked at first match tomorrow Tonga vs Georgia. Line is at Tonga -10.5 and would seem Tonga should be favored by a bit more based on current form/rankings/past history which has me leaning Georgia here, but holding off on it for now.

                Anyone have thoughts for that match or any of the others tomorrow?

                  Georgia are shit, I'd lean Tonga.

                  Argentina are much improved since their intro to the Rugby Championship and they actually lost both their games to NZ this year by 21. Tough game, lean NZ, full strength squad but doubt I'll play it.

                  I'd lean towards US covering against Samoa, they played well against a half-strength Australia side.

                  Will probably play Springboks, I'll post what I lock in later.

                  Here's to a profitable RWC

                  Kahn nice hit on Hawks last night, absolutely dominated you got anything on syd/n melb tonight?

                    Going with north Melbourne. But not as confident as last night.

                          Something about the line seems fishy, but think it's Tonga or pass and just going to pass as I need to get to sleep so can't decide closer to start of the match.

                          2nd Match up sees Ireland -41.5 vs Canada. Huge gap in class here, but that's an awful lot of points and leaning take them. Play to come in the morning.

                            yeah that's why i'm not as confident as the hawks bet last night. if you have heritage, get some over 161.5. gl

                              Ye might just watch the game tonight, I'm terrible at AFL anyway

                              I like NZ to win it and as a NZer I hope they do, but the gap closes when they're away from home.

                              Australian rugby has been shit the last few years but their coach is good and I expect them to peak at the right time and make a run, if they can come out of their pool on top they've got a really good quarter final. England and France always rise for World Cups too.

                              Having said that, the All Blacks still the team to beat.

                                  LOL at the head to head odds in these games.

                                  If you parlay the fave in the next 8 matches together it pays around $1.50 (-200)
                                  .

                                          Bit of a shock, should have stuck to my initial instinct to take Georgia and the points.

                                          Still think 41.5 is too many points, but under probably the better play in the next one.

                                          Ireland - Canada under 59.5 is the play

                                                  Japan +43.5
                                                  South Africa up 12-10 at half. Need to head out for the day so going to put in play for last match of the day now. Looks like Italy a bit of a mess with dissension with the coach and missing their Captain, though France also missing a key player in Wesley Fontana. Form and past results point to a pretty big France win and that is what I am going to back.

                                                  France -16.5.

                                                    Wow, Japan pulls the shock upset over South Africa, don't even need the 43.5 points.

                                                    France takes Italy easily 32-10, makes for a nice 4-0 start first two days.

                                                    US in the early game tomorrow, 7:00 am EST and will probably have a play on it later tonight

                                                      If you parlay the fave in the next 8 matches together it pays around $1.50 (-200)
                                                      Man, if only I had engaged my brain when I posted that and thought about what great value all the dogs were!
