Is France to win every game still a ridiculous bet at 66/1?

France could beat anyone on any given day if the right team turns up. Where have you seen that bet? |

pretty awesome start from the all blacks this first half. there could be a shit load of tries this world cup due to directives given to the refs about giving advantage to attacking play.

Are the group stages of the RWC a bigger waste of time than the group stages of the Cricket World Cup?
Minnows can spring an upset in the CWC due to the short format and the fact that one slogger getting lucky can win a game on his own, but in the RWC they just seem to get pulverised with zero chance of winning.

Sigh if NZ had a 9 they could take the trophy home now. Was it just me or was that an obvious try the video ref just got wrong?

def not a try, his hand was under the ball when he first crossed the line, by the time it had rolled over his hand and contacted the ground his foot was in touch. watched with a kiwi and he agrees I'd have 100% given it at full speed though |

Ball carrying arm touching the ground is fine isn't it? Didn't think ball actually had to touch. At that point his foot was over the line and looked like it was touching but as it played forward you could tell it was still in the air as it then went down and hit the ground and bounced.

Quick google suggests I was wrong. Does anyone remember this ever being a rule/initiative?
I've been reffed like this for as long as I can remember.

always been the rule but at any level of the game without a video ref today's try would've been wrongly given as it def looked fine at full speed
