Let's not forget that the bookmakers have to actually offer a market first. Some of these scenarios are just daft. The most obvious one has to be the first scoring play.

Remember Tommy Martyn mention something at a Sportsman Meal, how him and Long had put money on the first point coming from a Drop Goal at Leeds a few years back (which apparently nearly came off, had it not for a charge down, IIRC, and Leeds running around to the other end to score a try).
