Why are there more draws in Rugby Union than Rugby League? by Stuart McIntyre

Why are there more draws in Rugby Union than  Rugby  League?

 

Backing the draw in Rugby Union can be lucrative for those who have plenty of patience, my three personal highlights being the 2005 Heineken Cup final, Lions v  Argentina in Cardiff and London Irish v Gloucester in last season’s Euro Challenge Cup final.However, Rugby League draw backers would be paupers in comparison it seems, a draw in that code being rarer than Andy Robinson talking sense at England selection meetings.

The Assassin thought to himself -if only he had turned that Pro 40 Cricket off.The next screen shot is for the month of Sept (first 4 weeks) the cricket has been the problem.Lost twice heavily at cricket -this then affected Everything else -trying to Chase.

 

Rolling Average (Week 37) 2006

Rolling Average.I am only starting to mention my 'Rolling Average' figures now (middle Sept) because it is only now that these figures become of any importance.Rolling Average is a 52 week guide to how well or badly the Smiling Assassin is getting on.As I mentioned in an earlier post -my Rolling Average for Week1 of this year was -1200,therefore anything in positive territory is very welcome.The best that I have achieved was a few weeks ago when my RA was +60 but unfortunately after a few rough weeks-it languishes at +10.This means that after all commisions my Weekly profits for 2006 is exactly a 10 spot  every week -hardly worth bothering with.

Anyone who knows anything about gambling will tell you how difficult the Summer Months can be.No Premiership,No Champions League -so be cautious.Stay away from Womens Football and late nite Pool.So therefore how pleased I was to post significant and continuous profits on almost every week through June July & Aug 06
