Guinness Premiership Rugby Union Betting 2008

The Guinness Premiership is well under way with five rounds in the bag and Bath topping the table. It’s a tight bunch, however, and perplexing for Rugby Union betting fans with only six points separating the top seven sides. Bath are proving to be a very solid and have so far gained three bonus points after scoring four or more tries in their Worcester and Wasps encounters as well as losing only marginally to Gloucester. Online betting fans note that Leicester Tiger’s are flattered by the second place in the table having won by only marginally in their meetings with London Irish and Gloucester. South African coach, Heyneke Meyer, formerly of the Blue Bulls, needs to pull something out of the bag if he wants to remain friends with the fans.

Betting On Individual Premiership Rugby Games

Betting in this tournament is perhaps best confined to individual matches at the moment. It’s a tough call to predict the season outcome with so many teams capable of anything on the day. Online Betting sites now offer a very wide range of betting opportunities for rugby fans and you’re no longer limited to simple win betting. These days you can bet on

  • First scoring play
  • Number of points scored by team A or B
  • Total tries
  • Total match points
  • Winning margin
  • Half time/full time position

    • And a whole lot more. The advent of Sports Betting has put pressure on the bookies to come up with an ever more entertaining and comprehensive range of options and it’s well worth checking out a few sites to see which best suits your needs. Free bets are on offer to new customers as well and you should seek out the most generous ones available at the time. The advent of live betting has hugely transformed the entertainment you get from betting because you can now stay with a game right to the end and place your bet at any time.

    Guinness Premiership Rugby Takes Place In November 2008

    The Heineken Cup is also in full swing and this means that Round 6 of the Guinness Premiership is four weeks away in the middle of November. R6 matches are Bath hosting bookies favourite, Leicester which should prove to be a thoroughly absorbing encounter to see. Harlequins take on the Wasps at Twickenham while Sale Sharks are at home to Worcester and Newcastle welcome the London Irish. The rapidly improving Saracens take on underachieving Gloucester while floundering Bristol provide the tea and buns for Northampton whose away record this season leaves much to be desired.

    Harlequins are noted for their attractive play while Wasps are struggling to get out of first gear this season. Sale won their first four games and then blew it big time with the consistent London Irish by allowing the hosts to get four tries. Probably just a hiccup. Although Worcester celebrated their win over the Wasps they are struggling defensively and need to remedy this.

    It’s going to be a fascinating season for Guinness Premiership betting fans and it will get more and more absorbing as it progresses. After the amazing efforts of the England team in the last Rugby World Cup, there’s something in the air with English rugby and now everyone and their mother is going all out to win.
