Although it's a hemisphere away, Jake Norton is keen to see the outcome of Round 3 of the RBS Six Nations tournament this weekend.

The northern hemisphere's annual fiesta of international rugby - the Six Nations Championship - continues into its third cluster of matches this weekend.

As it stands, England and France are the only two unbeaten teams after two rounds, and the pair dominate overall-winner betting accordingly.

The Poms are just $1.70 to win their first Six Nations title since 2003, and Les Bleus $2.70 to defend their crown. To demonstrate their dominance in punters' minds, Ireland is third in betting, but way out at $34.

In Betfair's Six Nations 'Grand Slam' market, England is considered a $2.86 chance to go through the tournament undefeated, France is $3.80 and $2.58 can be taken on neither side winning all of their fixtures.

At least one of these results will be removed from the market this weekend though, with the huge cross-Canal clash at Twickenham. Here England is $1.52 and France $3.15 to carry on their winning ways.

In the other matches, both Wales and Ireland are firm favourites to win their weekend encounters, with Italy and Scotland respectively.
