Managed to fit some betting in and it was another Best Bet arrival for the newsletter after the hooter - the acca was nowhere though
Made a few rand overall but nothing to write home about
A similar looking weekend ahead with the NPC finals, Gallagher Prem, Toyota Champs and URC - note we have a separate thread for the Women's Rugby World Cup where the round 2 handicaps are being discussed - click here for RWC betting thread
Not sure if the URC caps are out but here are my predictions
Ospreys +7.5 v Stormers
Connacht +12.5 v Leinster
Lions -1.5 v Ulster
Sharks -9.5 v Glasgow
Cardiff -5.5 v Dragons
Edinburgh -10.5 v Benetton
Scarlets -7.5 v Zebre
Munster -5.5 v Bulls
Have a good punting week

Only thing I like initially is London Irish +10.
I may wait for team news this week before jumping on anything too early.
Small play on Wasps +12 (Umaga is out injured however so will re-assess later) and Northampton -14.

Standout for me is Dragons +11 @ evens away to Cardiff
Dragons, who appear to have improved this term so far, rested players last week in prep for this game.
Cardiff have won all recent league matches between these 2 by the following margins: 1, 2, 1, 1, 4, 3, & 8 points.
BG capped at +5.5, which I'd probably still take.
(+11 is outstanding value for me)

Early fancy on the Exeter minus. Wasps with quite a few injury concerns.

Really like this. Especially if the Sharks throw their Boks back in the mix.

Just gone back for more of this, as Cardiff have a number of injury outs and doubts
Its since dropped to +9, but I'm sure it will keep coming in

Feels incredibly high for a Zebre game where the weather could be a bit windy and wet.

It's due to be wet in Swansea but the Stormers pack have proved more than capable and with Kitshoff and Dweba off the bench, I think the Ospreys will struggle at scrum time. Taking Stormers on the board and Stormers -2.5
Its not wet in Swansea - the odd light shower but that's it. I've gone Stormers -2 ......

Very apt analogy.
