Rugby Union gambling is here with the six nations

It is Six nations time again this weekend but now we have seen the relative strengths of the teams which gives us a better idea for gambling on Rugby Union. If you are gambling on the championship winner, now is the time to do it before Ireland meet France on Sunday as that result will affect the odds considerably; England are the hot favourites having disposed of Wales in Cardiff and they now have three home games including the one against France; best odds are at Paddy Power at 5/4 or Party Bets at 6/5 whilst Ladbrokes is only offering even money. If you fancy France then Ladbrokes is the place to be at 7/4 with Party offering 13/8 and Paddy Power only 6/4 and finally Ireland available at 4/1 at either Ladbrokes or Paddy Power but only 7/2 at Party. This really should be a three horse race with the critical matches being England versus France at Twickenham on the 26^th and Ireland versus France this Sunday; Ireland versus England could be critical on the last day of the competition but it could also all be over by then. This weekend sees England take on Italy and obviously England are clear favourites but there is still a good gambling opportunity as Paddy Power are offering 10/11 on Italy with a 23 point start which might be generous considering they only lost to Ireland by 2 points. Wales have lost their last 8 games and now come face to face with Scotland at Murrayfield; this looks like being a close game and the gambling odds reflect this with Ladbrokes and Partybets offering Scotland at 4/6 whilst Paddy Power have the best odds on Wales at 13/10. Rugby Union gambling is in full swing but get on now for the Championship winner.
