There were 2 things that saved me from a break enforcing loss
Firstly 2 of my bigger plays being unders in the Blues game and the Newsletter Best Bet ( Click here to join the battle against the bookmakers) Bulls over 3.5 1st half tries arrived but I also had big losses on The Rebels and then pretty much lost on each game bar the Crusaders half time cap which was a small play
Secondly I tweeted that when things started going wrong I didn't do what I would have done years back and that was chase my losses. Had I done so it would have been terminal and I will take that as a positive out of the weekend. It was a bad one make no mistake but I showed discipline amongst the carnage and am ready to fight another day
Playoff rugby returns this weekend with the Super Rugby Quarters and we also have the final round of Currie Cup action - here are my predicted caps and I see some Super Rugby up already so will compare straight away
Super Rugby - bookie in brackets quoted on home team
Blues -19.5 v Waratahs (_18.5)
Chiefs -19.5 v Reds (-18.5)
Crusaders -21.5 v Drua (-17.5)
Brumbies -2.5 v Hurricanes (+0.5)
Main difference in the Crusaders cap and I had Brumbies slight favs in Canberra
Currie Cup
Griffons +22.5 v Lions - a dead rubber basically although Lions could go 4th for a while (assuming points diff is the tiebreaker)
Griquas -6.5 v Pumas - Griquas must win, Pumas could yet miss out
Bulls -9.5 v Free State - a win sees Bulls through but FS need win to go top and put pressure on Sharks
WP +6.5 v Sharks - WP may have nothing to play for, Sharks may also if Cheetahs lose so be careful with this one
Cheers and have a good week

Blues no -17 from -18

Crusaders now -21 where I had them from -17

Griffons +22.5 v Lions (+23.5)
Griquas -6.5 v Pumas (-4.5)
Bulls -9.5 v Free State (-7.5)
WP +6.5 v Sharks (+2.5)
Only significant difference is Sharks game

the bookies only take a 5 to 7% handling charge - to pay the fella that won in Ekurhuleni or wherever
If you pay more than 5% you should change your bookie

Was counting my money after 4 tries in first half.
Then they start kicking penalties?
FFS!
There may be value in early Currie Cup matches but I cannot get a read on form.

This will make or break my weekend - considering a small hedge to ensure a profit but man it is not in my nature - going to let her ride (for now) and hope for a tight match
Regards previous gme when Drua got that intercept gift I feared the worst - Crusaders D was brilliant though

14 points in 10 minutes. This super touch isn’t going well.

Also Nic Berry is a disgrace of a ref. Can’t believe he will be at the World Cup.

60m runaway try. Like, fuck off. Disgraceful.
Nic Berry is clueless at the break down.

They showed it a few times, and the final view looked like the ball was clearly down with no hand under it.
Jesus, like huge call, take a few minutes to make sure.
