Bet on the 2017 Super Rugby season

Major rugby events to bet on

  • World Rugby Sevens Series
  • 2017 Rugby World Cup
Some upcoming matches you can bet on right now are between the Queensland Reds vs. Southern Kings, and the Melbourne Rebels vs. The Brumbies. The Reds are one of the lowest ranked teams in the Australasian Group, but are still the massive betting favorites against the Kings, who have one of the worst records in the South African Groups this year. At the moment, the Reds odds to win are set at 1/9, while the Kings odds sit at 19/4.

The Melbourne Rebels have an even worse record than the Reds at 0-0-5. They’ll be taking on the 2nd ranked team in the Australasian Group, and as a result, they’re the considerable underdogs with odds of 27/10. The Brumbies have been massively successful this year, and are a great rugby betting option with odds of 20/73.

Bet on the World Rugby Sevens Series


If you’re looking to bet on rugby in the UK, one of the best options available at NetBet Sportsbook is wagering on the World Rugby Sevens Series. This amazing rugby tournament pits 20 of the best international teams in the world against each other, and is one of the best events to bet on through online sportsbooks in the UK.

There are only three more series remaining in the tournament, the next of which takes place in Singapore. There are a number of bets available right now. One of the best you can make is one the game between Argentina vs. Kenya. Neither of these teams are in the top 5 rankings, but some rugby betting experts feel it will be an exciting matchup. At the moment, Argentina is the favorite with odds of 5/12. Kenya is the slight rugby betting underdog with odds of 43/20.

Another great Sevens Series bet you can make is one the winner of the game between England and France. England is coming off a victory in the Six Nations, and is the massive betting favorite with odds of 2/15. France is understandably the betting underdog here at 5/1.

Bet on the 2019 Rugby World Cup


The 2019 Rugby World Cup is scheduled to be held in Japan, and members of NetBet Sportsbook are already able to bet on the tournaments winner. Of course, rankings and odds can change in the future, but there are some fantastic options to make money betting on rugby here.

At the top of the betting odds is New Zealand, at 11/10. The All Blacks are number one in the world rugby rankings, and are the reigning champions of the World Cup, with 8 victories over all. If you’re looking to bet on rugby in the UK, New Zealand may be your safest option on the 2019 World Cup.
