CHEETAHS V BULLS
Posted 2 August 08h35
I handicapped this game Bulls 3.5 and after opening -5.5 the bookies are now in agreement with me.
I was on the Bulls when they started underdogs in Pretoria and looking at the team sheets I think they will prove too strong for the Cheetahs.
There are no points lines out yet and I expect the line to be around 58.5.
BET: 3 units Bulls -3.5 at 10/11 at 0.92/1 at Betxchange
PUMAS V SHARKS
The current handicap for this game is Pumas -9.5 and this is close to where I handicapped it at -7.5
I am not seeing any obvious value and will be watching with interest to see if the Sharks can build on last weeks strong showing against the Lions.
Bet to follow when points lines are out
Bet Posted 03 August 08h48
Pokerbet are out with points lines and go 60.5 and I think overs is the play.
There have been 2 matches in Nelspruit this season and they have had 92 (Griquas) and 96 (Lions) points respectively.
I expect this line to edge up to 63.5 come kickoff.
BET: 6 units over 60.5 points at 87/100 at Pokerbet*

WESTERN PROVINCE V GRIFFONS
Bet Posted 3 August, 08h38
WP beat the Griffons by 49 points in Welkom and although the Griffons almost beat the Cheetahs at home last week that was a Cheetahs side with plenty of changes and I am a bit surprised to be getting -40.5 here.
At the same time I don’t enjoy backing big minus handicaps (and already took some of this early in the week) but having capped this 12 points higher I will stick with my initial instinct.
I see Pokerbet are out with points lines and this one is set at 71.5. The weather looks ok but there are showers forecast for later in the night so I am going to stick with the handicap for now.
BET: 4 units WP -40.5 at 10/11 at Sportingbet*

GRIQUAS V LIONS
I have not forgotten about this one and will be back around lunch time Sunday with my bet.
Bet Posted 4 August 13h14
This handicap opened +8.5 Griquas but money has come for the home team.
The points line is 64.5 and i like the overs but will focus on the Lions points.
BET: 4 units Lions over 34.5 points at 0.92/1 at Boyles
