Despite huge liabilities, William Hill have decided to take on England and have pushed their price out from 14/1 to 16/1 at the World Cup. Punters think Chris Ashton will continue to be a try machine and he is 2/1 favourite ahead of Manu Tuilagi at 7/1 to be the team’s top tryscorer. England are 1/3 to win Group B and 14/1 to win the whole thing!
“We feel that England will be genuine contenders for the next World Cup rather than this one and are happy to take on million pound plus liabilities,” said Hill’s spokesman Rupert Adams.
