Rugby Union Rules

• Unless otherwise stated, all rugby union bets are settled on 80 minutes play.
• For Rugby 7s tournaments, all bets are settled on the result at the end of Normal/Regular Time (except halftime, first half, overtime and penalty shootout markets).
• If a match is postponed, bets will stand until 48 hours from the original kick off time, after which time they will be void.
• If the scheduled venue is changed after a bet is placed, all bets will stand provided the match is not postponed by more than 48 hours from the original kick off time.
• Any multiple bet reduced by an abandoned, postponed or re-arranged match will stand on the remaining selections.
• If a match starts but is abandoned before its completion, all bets will be void unless an official result is declared by the applicable governing body. Where an official result has been declared by the official governing body, that official result will govern match and handicap market settlement but all other markets will be void unless their result has already been determined at the point of abandonment (i.e. at the point of abandonment, it would not have been possible for the outcome of the bet to change had the match continued to its natural conclusion). By way of example, if 37 points have been scored at the time a match is abandoned: (i) a bet placed on 35 points or more to be scored would be settled as a winning bet, (ii) a bet placed on 30-35 points to be scored would be settled as a losing bet and (iii) a bet placed on 40-45 points to be scored would be void. In such circumstances, bets on last tryscorer / team to score last / team to score last try / last scoring play would all be void.
  
  
  
• Outright Bets: all bets placed on outright markets will be settled on official tournament results. For betting purposes, any team which has points deducted due to breaches of rules and regulations will be deemed a starter. If, at the time a deduction of points is announced, the loss of points means that only one eventuality can occur then all bets on that competitor are void and monies will be returned. Any bets placed after a points deduction may have prices adjusted accordingly.
• All outright markets which state "Regular Season" (or similar) are deemed to mean the official standings of teams after all matches of the predetermined season are played and before any playoff matches have commenced.
• Tournament Tries/Points: Bets will apply to all playing time, including any extra time in any match where an official result is declared.
• To Miss Top 2 / Top 4 / Top 8: For betting purposes, any team which has points deducted due to breaches of rules and regulations will be deemed a starter. If, at the time a deduction of points is announced, the loss of points means that only one eventuality can occur, then all bets on that competitor are void.
• Tryscorers: All bets will be refunded if they were placed on players not included the official match day 22 or 23 (depending on the competition). If a substitute is not on the field before the first try is scored then bets on that player will be void in the First Tryscorer, First Team Tryscorer and First Tryscorer Insurebet markets. If a substitute comes on at any stage during the game, they will be considered All In for all other tryscorer markets. If they do not take any part in the game, they will be void in all tryscorer markets. All bets placed in this market on the selection 'No Tryscorer' should be win only. If any Each Way bets are placed on this selection, all place parts of the bet will be made VOID.
• First/Last/Xth Try Scorer: In the event of a penalty try being scored, we will pay out on the penalty try option if we have offered it as a selection (whether in first try scorer, last try scorer or Xth try scorer markets). If the penalty try option is not offered then we will: (i) (for first try scorer markets), pay out on the basis of the second try where the first try is in fact a penalty try and (ii) (for last try scorer markets), pay out on the basis of the penultimate try where the last try is in fact a penalty try. For 'Xth try scorer' markets, if the penalty try option is not offered, we will void any bets placed on the Xth try to be scored by a particular player if that try is in fact a penalty try.
• First 2nd Half Tryscorer: Bets placed on substitutes will be void if the first 2nd half try is scored before they come on.
• First Tryscorer Insurebet: If the player fails to score the first try but does score a try in the match then the bet stake will be returned. If a substitute is not on the field before the first try is scored then bets on that player will be void.
• Position to Score First Try: In the event of a penalty try being the first try scored, we will pay out on the position of the next tryscorer for "Position to Score First Try" markets. For "Position to score xth Try" markets, in the event of a penalty try, we will pay out on the position which scores the next try (e.g. if the first try scored in a match is a penalty try and the second try is scored by a forward, then a "forward" will be deemed to have scored both the first and second tries). If there is no try scored after the penalty try then this market will be void.
• To win in Extra Time: If there is no winner following extra time, dead heat rules will apply to bets on this market.
• Tryscorer Matchbets / Kicker Matchbets / To Score the Most Points Matchbets: Both players must be in the starting 15 for bets to stand. If there is no "Tie" or "Draw" selection offered and the result is a tie then all bets will be void.
• Best Kicking Percentage Matchbets / Kicker Matchbets / To Score the Most Points Matchbets: Bets will be void if both players do not attempt at least 1 placed kick at goal.
• Player Total Points / Perfect Kicking record: Bets will be void if the selected player does not attempt at least 1 placed kick at goal.
• Top Tryscorer / Top Team Tryscorer / Top Points Scorer: dead heat rules apply.
• Regular Season Team Matchbets: dead heat rules apply.
• Head to Head: This market will settled based on the outcome of extra time. In the result of a draw where no extra time is played, this market will be settled according to dead heat rules.
• For Rugby World Cup Man of the Match markets, the market will be settled based on the official 'Man of the Match' as determined by the Rugby World Cup official site. If the Rugby World Cup official site fails to declare an official Man of the Match for any reason, all bets will be void.
• To 'Make the Lions Squad' markets will be settled based on the initial squad announcement regardless of whether or not the Tour is then postponed for any reason. Any subsequent call-ups after the initial squad announcement will not apply towards settlement of this market. For the 2021 tour only, if an initial squad is not announced in 2021 for any reason, all bets will be void.
• In some tournaments, a "foul play review system" will operate. Under this system, when a yellow card is shown on-field, a, off-field bunker then reviews the incident and decide whether a yellow card is sufficient, or whether it should be upgraded to a red card. If an on-field yellow card is upgraded to a red card via this review system, only the red card will count for settlement purposes. Any subsequent corrections or amendments made by a disciplinary panel at a later date will not affect settlement.

Rugby League Rules

• Except for bets placed via "Regular Time Match Odds" and "Match Handicap" markets, all bets on Super League and NRL markets will be settled on the basis of the official result (including any extra time). NRL/Super League bets placed via "Regular Time Match Odds" and "Match Handicap" markets, and any rugby league bets placed in relation competitions other than Super League or NRL, will be settled on the basis of 80 minutes' play.
• If the result of a Super League or NRL match after extra time is a draw, then our normal dead heat rules will apply. For the avoidance of doubt, in such circumstances, all winning margin bets (including bets placed on "Dozen Winning Margins"), will be deemed unsuccessful (given that neither team will, in fact, have won the relevant match).
• All bets on NRL matches will be settled on the official declared result including any extra time, except "Match Betting", "Handicap Betting", 'Will There Be Extra Time?', 'Highest Scoring Half' and 'Half With Most Tries' markets (which will be settled on the basis of 80 minutes' play). In Handicap/Line and Totals betting where the value selected is a whole number (e.g. 6.0), and the result lands on that number, then all wagers related to that line number will be refunded, and any such bet will be deemed an excluded leg for the purpose of any applicable MultiBet, which will be recalculated excluding that leg. The same rules apply for State of Origin and any other Australian Rugby League match where extra time is played.
• If the result of an NRL match after extra time is a draw, then the Dead Heat Rule will apply to all bets where a winner has not been officially declared. All winning margin bets, including Dozen Winning Margins, will be deemed unsuccessful bets as neither team has won the match.
• If a match is postponed, bets will stand until 48 hours from the original kick off time, after which time they will be void.
• If the venue is changed from the one advertised, all bets on that match are void.
• Any multiple bet reduced by an abandoned, postponed or re-arranged match will stand on the remaining selections.
• If a match starts but is abandoned before its completion, all bets will be void unless an official result is declared by the applicable governing body. Where an official result has been declared by the official governing body, that official result will govern match and handicap market settlement but all other markets will be void unless their result has already been determined at the point of abandonment (i.e. at the point of abandonment, it would not have been possible for the outcome of the bet to change had the match continued to its natural conclusion). By way of example, if 37 points have been scored at the time a match is abandoned: (i) a bet placed on 35 points or more to be scored would be settled as a winning bet, (ii) a bet placed on 30-35 points to be scored would be settled as a losing bet and (iii) a bet placed on 40-45 points to be scored would be void. In such circumstances, bets on last tryscorer / team to score last / team to score last try / last scoring play would all be void.
• Outright Bets: all bets placed on outright markets will be settled on official tournament results. For betting purposes, any team which has points deducted due to breaches of rules and regulations will be deemed a starter. If, at the time a deduction of points is announced, the loss of points means that only one eventuality can occur then all bets on that competitor are void and monies will be returned. Any bets placed after a points deduction may have prices adjusted accordingly.
• NRL & Super League Outright / Regular Season Outright / Top 2 / 4 / 8 Finish: All In Betting. Any Team which has points deducted due to breaches of rules and regulations will be deemed a starter for resulting purposes. Any loss of titles after the completion of the Grand Final will be deemed null and void and all bets will stand. All outright markets which state "Regular Season" (or similar) are deemed to mean the official standings of teams after all matches of the predetermined season are played and before any playoff matches have commenced.
• NRL & Super League Wooden Spoon: This market is settled on the team which has the least wins for the season. A draw is considered as half a win. In the event of more than one team having the same number of wins, the outcome will be determined by the worst 'for and against' points total. Points deducted because of breaches of rules and regulations are excluded for resulting purposes. All In. Win Only.
• To Miss Top 2 / 4 / 8: For betting purposes, any team which has points deducted due to breaches of rules and regulations will be deemed a starter. If, at the time a deduction of points is announced, the loss of points means that only one eventuality can occur, then all bets on that competitor will be void.
• Tournament Tries/Points: Bets will apply to all playing time (including any extra time) in any match where an official result is declared.
• Tryscorers: All bets will be refunded if they were placed on players not included in the official match day 17. All players that are named in the match day 17 will be considered "All In" for all tryscorer markets (including "First Tryscorer" and "First Team Tryscorer" markets).
• First/Last Tryscorer: In the event of a penalty try being the first / last try scored, we will pay out on the penalty try option if offered. If the penalty try option is NOT offered, the player who would (in our reasonable discretion) have scored the try (i.e. had foul play not occurred) will be deemed to have scored the try for resulting purposes.
• First 2nd Half Tryscorer: If a player is included in his team's matchday 17 man squad, all bets on that player will stand regardless of whether the player is on the field for the first 2nd half try or not.
• To win in Extra Time: If there is no winner following extra time, dead heat rules will apply to bets on this market.

Supercoach markets will be paid at the completion of each round in accordance with the Daily Telegraph (Australia) results.
• Top Tryscorer / Top Points Scorer: dead heat rules apply.
• Regular Season Team Matchbets: dead heat rules apply.

#Oddsonthat - Rugby Union & Rugby League Rules

• The rules in this sub-section apply specifically to the settlement of any Rugby Union or Rugby League bets which are placed via #oddsonthat ("OOT"). All other settlement rules which are included in this "Rugby Union/League Rules" section (or elsewhere on this website) will also apply to the settlement of OOT bets unless they contradict, or conflict with, those included in this sub-section (in which case, the rules in this sub-section shall take precedence).
• All OOT bets are settled on the basis of 80 minutes play unless otherwise stated. Overtime/Extra Time/Sudden Death will not count except when the phrases 'To Qualify', 'Lift The Trophy', 'Win The Tie' or similar are quoted. For all multiple OOT bets which involve one or more bets including such phrases, the remaining bets (i.e. which do not include such phrases) will be settled on the basis of 80 minutes play unless stated otherwise.
• If any player who forms part of an OOT bet does not take any part in the relevant match (or does not fulfil the conditions of the bet), then the whole OOT bet shall be voided. This will apply in all cases regardless if any/all of the remaining components win or lose.
• For any OOT bets which involve players being shown yellow or red cards (for example, total match cards), only cards awarded once the player is active in the match will count. Any cards shown before the starting whistle or after the final whistle will not count.
• For any obvious wording errors, we reserve the right to cancel any OOT bets placed on the relevant selection (and, in such circumstances, we will offer the OOT bet to be re-placed with the correct wording).
• The Maximum payout for an OOT rugby bet shall be 25,000 euro/pounds. For the avoidance of doubt, this maximum applies to all elements off your OOT bet when taken together (i.e. it does not apply separately to each element of your OOT bet).
