Think you know who’ll win the 6 Nations? Will there be a Grand Slam winner? Who’ll be top try scorer? If you fancy a bit of a dabble, check some of the odds here!

Outright Winner
France 5/6

England 7/4

Wales 7/1

Ireland 12/1

Scotland 40/1

Italy 1000/1

Ac’s Verdict: Not worth a risk for me, France and England hot favourites, but hard to split them apart and not enough money to be made on either.

Grand Slam Winner

France 5/4

England 7/2

Wales 33/1

Ireland 33/1

Scotland 110/1

Italy 1000/1

No Winner 11/8

Ac’s Verdict: I don’t think there’ll be a winner. Personally I can’t see England beating France away, or France beating Wales in the Millennium Stadium. Ireland and Wales may be worth a cheeky pound at 33’s but very unlikely all the same.

Triple Crown:

England 4/7

Ireland 6/1

Wales 10/1

Scotland 33/1

No Winner 3/1

Ac’s Verdict: I fancy England to take the Triple Crown, but again the odds aren’t great. No winner may be worth a try, but for me England are overwhelming favourites.

Top Try Scorer (Top 10):

Dominici 9/1

Cueto 9/1

Heymans 9/1

Cohen 10/1

Lewsey 12/1

O’Driscoll 14/1

Bowe 16/1

Rougerie 16/1

Jouzion 16/1

Voyce 16/1

Ac’s Verdict: Out of those 10, I perticulalry fancy O’Driscoll and Tommy Bowe. At 14 and 16 respectively, it’s a big win, and both have been on great from with clubs. Cohen’s odds seem very pro-England, and Lewsey’s credibility’s have to be doubted, but Cueto and Dominici can always guarantee trys.

Top Try Scorer (Ac’s Tip’s):

Shane Williams 16/1

Mark Jones 33/1

D’Arcy 40/1

Yachvilli 66/1

Chris Cusiter 150/1

Ac’s Tips: Shane’s been out of form for the Ospreys lately, but he is a class act and always performs in a red jersey. Mark Jones is my hot tip, back from injury and in great form, at 33/1 there’s a lot of money to be made there. D’Arcy is a great player, and anyone playing next to O’Drsicoll will find space. Yachvilli and Custister have high odds and may be worth thinking about for the more daring gambler.
