Six Nations Bets

Most Six Nation bets are the same types of bets you would see for any rugby union competition. However, there are some Six Nations bets that are unique, such as Grand Slam bets.

A Six Nations Grand Slam is when one team beats all other competing nations in the same year's play. This has actually happened quite often in recent years, so you will very likely see Six Nations Grand Slam bets in the early rounds or if one team looks to be making a good run for the crown.

Another opportunity for Six Nations bets is the Triple Crown Trophy. As the various nations of the British Isles have a more or less friendly rivalry, the Triple Crown Trophy is awarded to any of these sides that manages to beat all of the others. This has similar betting opportunities to the Grand Slam, except the odds on this outcome should be much shorter. It has only recently been an official award, so do not be too surprised if your bookie has yet to start offering Six Nations Triple Crown bets.

There are a number of other minor trophies that teams play for during the Six Nations competition, but you are far less likely to find a bookie offering Six Nations bets on them. The recent Giuseppe Garibaldi Trophy might start to get some action, as bookies will want to give the French and Italian punters something to bet on, but the same is really achieved simply by offering odds in the France vs Italy game.
