Rugby Union Betting - Free Rugby Bets

Betting on Rugby Union has increasingly become a popular past time with so many Rugby matches being screened live on television. As with most sports, the bigger the event the more betting interest there is in it and other than the Rugby World Cup which takes place every four years, the Six Nations tournament held each February/March attracts the most betting interest.

It looks as though France will be the 2010 Six Nations winners after wins against Ireland and Wales leave them at the top of the table. England's loss to Ireland at Twickenham has blown any chance they had of winning the Triple Crown whilst Scotland will be hoping to pick up a win in the tournament to avoid the wooden spoon. You can check out all the latest betting news, odds and tips at our special 6 Nations mini-site.
