The 99th edition or Europe’s oldest and most famous rugby tournament kicks off on the 2nd of February at Croke Park in Dublin as Ireland take on Italy in the first game of the 2008 Six Nations. The launch of the 2008 Six Nations will also spark a flurry of activity amongst online sportsbooks as 2008 Six Nations betting comes to the fore.

To kick of the Six Nations season Paddy Power has launched an irresistible Six Nations betting special. For the first weekend of the Six Nations all bets on the team leading at half-time will be refunded if that team goes on to lose the match. With unpredictable sides like Ireland, Wales and Scotland on the pitch, Paddy Power are unlikely to turn a profit during the course of the first three games!

Betfred has also launched its own special to welcome the Six Nations. Any bets on outright winners will be refunded up to the value of £200 with a free bet of the same value if the team in question finishes at the bottom of the Six Nations table. You’ll need to hurry with this one as the option is only valid until 2pm on Saturday the 2nd. A Gambling Guru hint is to bet on the team with the highest 2008 Six Nations odds – if they do end up winning the tournament you’ll collect a massive dividend, and if they do as expected you’ll get your money back.

Another interesting offer Betfred has put up is on which of Paul Sackey or Shane Williams will score the most tries at the 2008 Six Nations. With Sackey likely to have numerous opportunities coming his way as the beefy England backline mow down the opposition, Shane Williams will have to pull out the stops and rack up more of his brilliant individualistic tries. Betfred offers 5/6 2008 Six nations odds on either outcome.
