Madibaz -11.5 v Ikeys - no feel on this one
Maties -12.5 v Shimlas - leaning Maties and should be an entertaining game
UJ -25.5 v CUT - leaning UJ
Wits +10.5 v Tuks - no feel yet

Maties Shimlas - Maties look a quality outfit this year and think they'll be revved up in front of the home crowd tonight. Tuks were awful against Shimlas and really should've won comfortably and I can't see maties making as many errors.
UJ CUT - Still don't know how bad CUT are so not really too interested in this one. UJ should win comfortably but CUT showed last season they put up a fight every now and then.
Wits Tuks - I expect Tuks to bounce back this week but Wits are no pushovers these days and will be decent at home. I would lean to the minus but I the bookies capped it pretty similar to how I would've had it so sitting out.
For the above reasons, only one bet.
Maties -12.5

Quite surprised this Wits team didn't win more comfortably against UCT last week though, still trying to work out if Tuks are just that bad or UCT aren't too bad. Maties miles ahead of everyone this year, Pukke only team that is still unknown quality wise.
e=why did they use their powerplay fff

Madibaz calling a power play on their 5m line while their scrum is getting dominated takes the cake for me as worst call of the day. UCT scrummed it over for 9 points. Any team that doesn't take the power play from a restart has no idea what they doing

But the rule also says the powerplay can only be taken in your own half. So who knows what will happen if you're in the opponent's half at the 60th minute. These new gimmicks...
