Introduction to the 2010 Six Nations Championship

Posted on January 5, 2010 by admin

The 2010 Six Nations is poised to be the most competitive tournament in recent memory. The Irish are certain to enter the tournament as the team to beat after defeating Tri Nations champions South Africa in the wake of their historic, second grand slam. Yet there have been signs of a new dawn in English rugby, and rumblings North of the border suggest that the Scots are weary of being the tournament’s whipping boys.

Whether or not France or Wales will come to the party remains to be seen, while Italy is overdue a big performance in the tournament. Whatever happens, the tournament will receive excellent betting coverage from online bookmakers, with over 30 betting markets per match offered by top bookies, along with a selection of enticing money-back and free bet specials from the likes of William Hill and Paddy Power.

2010 Six Nations Betting

Antepost betting on the Six Nations is available 12 months of the year. With the November tests a thing of the past, France has emerged as the tournament antepost favourite. Bookies may have got it wrong with this one, as the Irish proved beyond a doubt that they are the Northern Hemisphere’s top team by drawing with Australia and beating the Boks, and their fans won’t be saying no to an antepost price of 3/1.
