I’m sure Wales just want to play and focus on the rugby after the scandal. Looking forward to this.

Hear hear

Wales odds on favourites?

@chimoaus what was the scandal? (I've obviously missed something here)

Assistant coach Rob Howley was sent home from the tournament over a possible breach of betting rules.

Ahh yes! Of course. I forgot about that.

always amusing really, if he has bet for Wales to win, I cant see the issue, obviously if he bets for them to lose, that is a different story.

Like the last “friendly” vs Ireland? I just wonder how much financial drama he is in or if he has a gambling addiction. Surely he gets looked after at Wales and has been a pro coach for years. I wouldn’t have thought the reward would ever be big enough to negate the risk.

Or he's betting on the first try/ points scorer? Considering it's his game plan and ultimately his plays, he'll have a clear advantage.

MiketheSnow

Word is he got a series of free bets when he signed up with an online betting company.

Did an accumulator which included rugby.

Wonder what odds you can get on that?

I've heard from a couple of Welsh Rugby friends that he is seriously into betting. Just hope this is a simple mistake.

WRU seems to have handled this quite well so far.

Heard that too.

But never on rugby in the past. No conflict.

But fucked up on this one.

Also the accumulator had already lost before a rugby ball was kicked.

MiketheSnow

COME ON WALES

MiketheSnow

FUCKING BRILLIANT

MiketheSnow

Two solid scrums

Quick ball from the base.

Superb pass from Gareth Davies and Jonathan Davies goes under the sticks untouched.

Biggar hits the woodwork.

Wales 5 - 0 Georgia

African Monkey

That was embarrassing from Biggar haha.

@MiketheSnow unless Rob H had a bet on the first conversion hitting the post...

Rapido

Why on earth has the TMO came in for this.

MiketheSnow

Sanity prevails. Good reffing.

MiketheSnow

Penalty to Wales

Biggar tried this time 😉

Fuck guys.

It is really much better if you land kicks in the field of play.

MiketheSnow

Georgia settling in to this

booboo

This could hit a hundy.

kiwiinmelb
