The money goes on NZ
As if there was not enough pressure on the All Blacks already to win the World Cup, one punter has heaped plenty more on them with a huge bet.
An anonymous person has placed a colossal A$5 million ($4.2m) bet on New Zealand to win the World Cup, although the bookmakers he has placed the bet with are unable to disclose his identity.
"We can't discuss his identity. Unfortunately I can't disclose his country of origin," Hugh Taggart told
"This is an enormous bet. It's certainly one of the biggest individual bets we've seen and one that would normally have bookies running for cover."
With the tournament nearing the quarter final stages New Zealand are yet to be tested on the field, and are likely to face either France or Argentina in the quarter finals.
