United Rugby Championship Top Try Scorer
The top try scorer market is the URC's headline player bet — one outright on who scores the most tries across the whole season. Here is how to play it.
How the market works
You back a player to finish the season as the URC's leading try scorer, at odds set before the campaign. It runs the full season, so it is a long, rewarding hold. Wings, outside backs and the occasional rampaging fullback or centre dominate the market — forwards rarely feature. The biggest edge is backing a prolific finisher from a team expected to go deep into the play-offs, because more matches means more chances to score.
Finding value
Heavy favourites can pile up tries in the league phase, but missed games or a quarter-final exit ends their run — so a finisher from a side with a strong, deep campaign can pip them. Pair the market with the United Rugby Championship outright odds to see who is expected to last, and the United Rugby Championship predictions page for form. See the URC guide for all the markets.
Frequently asked questions
What is the URC top try scorer bet?
An outright bet on which player scores the most tries across the entire season. It is set before the campaign and settles after the Grand Final.
Which players win the top try scorer market?
Almost always wings and outside backs from teams that reach the play-offs, since more matches mean more try-scoring chances. Forwards rarely win it.
