Rugby Union Coverage

The biggest events in the rugby union calendar draw most attention from a betting point of view, and this is where we put our focus. The Six Nations is the biggest yearly tournament for us, with coverage of the international games in the early part of the year.

Of course, on a bigger scale, once every four years we have the Rugby World Cup, bringing together teams from around the globe, with weeks of action for fans to enjoy. Both events are covered well by bookmakers, and that results in a number of rugby free bets being available for you to use, while placing your bets on these big games.

Away from those two, if you are looking at the domestic scene then there is the Premiership in England, Top 14 in France and the United Rugby Championship, holding clubs from Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Italy & South Africa.

Rugby League Coverage

When it comes to club rugby league, the Super League is certainly the place of interest for fans in the UK. This summer competition brings together some of the biggest names in world rugby, who all compete with the hope of reaching the Super League Grand Final.

Internationally, England have work to do to catch up with the likes of New Zealand and Australia, but are improving, and World Cup’s allow them to show off their progress on a bigger stage. One-off international events add further flavour to the calendar, to keep fans interested for the whole calendar year.
