Six Nations Betting

The rivalries between France, England, Ireland, Italy, Scotland and Wales will back once again in 2011 in the annual international rugby union competition starting in February.

The Six Nations Championship is the successor to the Five Nations and the Home Nations Championship, and the winners of the Six Nations Championship are also known as the European Champions.

Wales enjoyed some success in the competition in 2008 with a Grand Slam win and if you fancy the Dragons to breath some fire into this tournament, then you can get odds of 5/1 at William Hill on them lifting the silverware.

You could use part of the £200 in free bets in stages on offer at Bet365 to back Wales, while Scotland, who have never won the Six Nations, are out at 10/1 to win at Blue Square.

Poor Italy, who are also without a single Six Nations title, have some huge blokes in their pack, but are huge outsiders at 200/1 at Bet365.

However, with Bet365s bumper £200 in free bets on offer, you could chance a daft little flutter on the long odds of them pulling off a major surprise.
