A TAB punter has bet $150,000 on Wellington to beat Southland in their national championship rugby match tomorrow, after a number of All Blacks returned to the team.

At $1.36 the bet has a possible return of $204,000 and a profit of $54,000.

All Blacks Cory Jane, Hosea Gear and Rodney So'oialo return to the Wellington side this week, while Southland All Black Jimmy Cowan was unavailable.
