Who Picks MOTM?

[R-Dog]

Any idea how to find out who is picking Man of the Match for the 6 Nations games?

[Logorrhea]

Always sits with the local broadcaster doesn't it? Not sure myself, but I always thought that's how it worked.

[R-Dog]

Yea think thats right eg RTE for our home games BBC for games in the UK.

Really want to know the exact person, eg Tony Ward or Jerry Guscott etc.

You can bet on this so knowing who is picking can be very usefull

Donal 'Tremenjous' Linehan picked it for the Wales match. You could tell he had selected CJ Stander after the first 10 minutes. Would have been a nice bet (I think Stander was 10/1 before the match)

[R-Dog]

Yea had him backed at 10/1.

Won a good few euros on these bets over the last few years. Depending on who is picking and who we are playing you can narrow things down quite a bit

Numbers 6-10 seam to get the majority

Outhalf most likely to get it in a tight kicking Duel.

Any match that is a real battle up front then look at a backrow or a Forward Leader like O'Connell or Al Wynn Jones.

Big wins are a bit trickier as anyone who gets 2 tries while doing F-all else is in with a good shot. Scrum Halves tend to nick it a few times here.

Also the emotional factor also help, 1st/last cap (Stander/Drico x2 Home and Away)


This week you would expect SOB to come back with a point to prove and be in with a shou

If it's Frankie Sheahan you can bet it'll be a player he's the agent of.
