Springboks Favoured To Beat Lions
The TAB believes that the Springboks will beat the British and Irish Lions in their upcoming 3 - match series in South Africa.
Odds released today have the South Africans as the $1.35 favourites and the Lions at $3.25. A drawn series is paying $25.00.
TAB punters can also bet on the "Exact Series Result" and which player will be the Lions top try scorer in the series. The current favourite is Welshman Shane Williams at $4.00.
Meanwhile the All Blacks have been installed as the $2.00 favourites to win the Tri - Nations despite having to play the Springboks twice in South Africa. The Springboks are the $3.00 second favourites with the Wallabies at $4.00.
There is also an opportunity to bet on which player will score the first try for the All Blacks this season. The opening test is against France in Dunedin on June 13th and the joint favourites to get that first touchdown are Joe Rokocoko and Ma'a Nonu, both at $8.00.
