URC Week 5, Gallagher Prem Week 5, NPC Final + other rugby

Add at halftime :


'-Canterbury to win, includes extra time, 1.82, 5 units

Nice half time play sportsbettor and South what a middle - I had not seen that post until now and also missed the game as had a bit of a rough night. 
The -8.5 blog pick sneaks in and I am going to start looking at the days matches now. 

The newsletter was meant to be out yesterday evening but a late Friday meeting (yes really) and an 18th birthday foiled my plans and it will be out later this morning. 

No score in the last quarter of the Japan game f@@cks my half time overs bet. Man this is getting extremely tedious - I'm thinking  I should just walk out into the street and hand my spare cash out to passers by ffs.

NPC rugby was back to the good old days today.

Near full crowd, much of NZ into it.

Sad it was for only one game this season.

Wouldn't have it enjoyed it much if Canterbury had lost as backed them heavily.

But fair play to Otago, great season for them. After doing very little for a long time. Congrats to all involved with them. They played an attacking brand of rugby with a solid defense and a strong effort from the players....... the way the game is supposed to be played.

Nice win on the overs in Lions game and I am suddenly feeling confident and firing Sharks over 5.5 tries at 10/11

Clermont -13.5 ha @1.90 2u

Some important returns for Clermont (Lanen, Ratuva, Sowakula, Delguy and Plummer at 10) while Castres with some rotation (Colonna, Zarantonello, Collier, Nakarawa, Maravat, Delaporte, Staniforth, Babillot, Ardron, Arata, Goodhue, Hulleu, Ambadiang and Chabouni rested or injured). Line to me in the low 20´s with this news so value in the home side.

Clermont put on the gas in the second half to make us 2/2 in France this weekend. Also Exeter reach the line.

If Benetton delivers this'd be a fantastic weekend.

Main bet of weekend Exeter - cruises home but then cursing myself for another play on Sharks, gave back some winnings there but a good weekend so far. Praying to wake up to some news in coming days that Plumtree has finally been given the axe.

next week I’m looking at the best All Blacks  minus, but probably hold out a bit for NZ points overs. 

With URC done for a few weeks I put the bet review in the current blog 

It was a pretty good weekend but the fact that I lost on the Sharks again leaves a sour taste and of course I ended up betting more on that game than any other

Looking forward to the Internationals and seems like there has been some movement both ways in the Ireland v All Blacks game 

Toulouse o44.5 @1.80 2u

Big big lineup ST with some fresh returns (argentinians Mallia and Chocobares, Roumat, Willis and also starting Flament, Ntamack and Kinghorn at 15) only weak point to me is Teddy Thomas ( it's a pity to see hin in this team, he's below their team mates by far). Bench is mounstrous.

Toulon with a much expected rotation (no Gigashvili, Ribbans, Halagahu, Abadie, Serían, White, Garbisi, Frisch, Brex, Drean, Tuicuvu rested or injured). Strong in the first row but third row is below Toulouse one, half pair is Pro D2 level, also in the centers (Sinzelle was a top performer last season but not this one), wingers are Pro D2 level as well. Not a bad bench but only Le Bail as the only 9 in the group, no replacement in the bench.

Weather ok, humidity in the 70% is low for a night match. Toulouse should put the gas tonight like the did against UBB and Castres.
