Thanks for those handicap stats RB.

Must say I think it is a tough week and I am not just saying that because I am low on confidence 

Going to get cracking on the previews now!

First previews are up:

Chiefs v Crusaders, leaning towards the home team on the handicap http://www.goodforthegame.co.za/rugby/c … eview.html

Waratahs v Lions, some incredible history here with the Tah's 6 from 6 at home and an average victory margin of 29 points. Missed the early value with Mbet though and will wait for closer to kickoff before making a call http://www.goodforthegame.co.za/rugby/w … eview.html

Bulls -18.5

Cowan out, Thompson and Hobbs banned for coming home late.
Bulls all the way!

I also got on the Bulls -19.5 a little earlier. With no Thompson and Hobbs your score could be right on RuggaBugga.

Also starting to like the Reds -8.5 over the Force. Just waiting to see the starting line-ups and will then place a bet.

Just some info from down under for you guys:  The Tahs have been mashed in the media this week for playing "boring" rugby v the Sharks, in the 2nd half of the game the crowd was booing every time they kicked the ball.  The rugby leaghue season kicks off this weekend and, the Tahs are desperate to keep the crowds in and play an attractive brand.  even CEO John O'Neill has spoken to the coach saying run the ball.  So expect them to run the ball from all areas of the park tonight.  Of course that doesn't mean it will be a high scoring game, especially as the weather is not great here today although its expected to be okay tonight the field may be wet. (weather http://www.bom.gov.au/weather/nsw/forec … dney.shtml)  Bookies have the total points spread at 50 which is quite high.  Tough one to call. 

Expect the Force to ignore O'Neill and kick plenty with ex-Chief flyhalf David Smith (Mitchell's ex player).  They will be desperate to beat the reds and I think they may cover the cap.  Its an afternoon game in Brisbane so wil be intersting to see how many points are scored compared to a night game which we are so used to now.

Tahs 13+

Chiefs +3.5 and Tah's -15 my bets for today.

Nice one RB 

Have left the total points and gone with the Tahs to beat the handicap

There goes that Half time handicap run for the Lions

Still a good morning though thanks to them Saders!

How embarrasing it is to be a Lions supporter.

Just one S14 bet for me today, Bulls -21.5

Get an account with Sporting Index - stop loss on shirts is one gundred

I think Sportsspread were the same and it did work in my favour but can also go against you. One of the things I found was that if I could close for a 40 unit profit at half time I never did because of the possibility of winning 100 units. I let bet ride and the often the game turned and what could have been a big win was suddenly a small one so the big stop loss can go for or against you.

Go the Sharks this morning - at a kids party but should be a tv and may look to play spreads in running.

Sharks deliver on the cap, well done lads, away from punting another narrow defeat on the back of what happeed last week must be very frustrating for the team.

Come on you Bulls!

When you consider the Bulls games this season have all had 80 points plus the 9/10 more than 57.5 looks a good bet at WSB

3 units over 57.5 at 9/10

Have a feeling there could be a few tries in this one but spreads fairly high. Have gone for the Force +8.5 and Force shirts high at 26 - small stakes and will relook at the break

sat with the sportspicks selection open for about 20 min thinking about swapping for Reds but in end left it on Force. Regretting it now, Reds far too good for Force.
