Rebels scored 46 and Blues 40 so can't see why Canes will not score as much as those 2
Thank you West for the easy conversion missed

I originally fancied the Blues chances in this, took some +12 earlier in the week, plus a small go at the win @ 5
They're on a great winning streak and I think the score in the recent reverse fixture flattered the Cheetahs a bit (2 tries from charge downs).
Connacht pushed the Cheetahs all the way recently & you'd have to say the Blues are a better outfit than them.
Clearly the above travel issues will have a big impact on them and their prep. On top of this bit surprised to see Anscombe at Flyhalf over Jarrod Evans, who has been superb.
So have probably done my dough!!

I'm with you on the Blue's plus , not sure all this messing around should affect them so much , talking from the pocket of course , Cheetahs have been very hot and cold and still believe this Blues side will push them all the way .

Nevertheless I'm finding this week very hard to call and initially really fancied the Waratahs on the minus , no Israel though has me a little worried as he normally creates the spark and momentum if the Tah's show their bad side. The Wolves though appear to play their worst rugby at home and I'll end up sticking with the Tah's.
Looking to take them on the ht and ft cap's.
I loved the Oracle's chuckling over the Chiefs handicap whilst watching his video snips and do understand his thinking, however this Blue's side is such a brass. I'll be looking to go against the logic and sound thinking and feel the Blues will go close against their fellow kin.
The Brumbies are awful and the Reds have shown some ball's this year. A really tough game to call and I made it a choice game , the plus would obviously be the value you would think but I have a feeling the Brumbies will win this one .
The Stormers for me are the best bet of the weekend and I hope the discipline will remain intact until kick off as this will be a maximum bet .
Finally the Jag's get a chance to play for some consistency , it does point to a high scoring match and that's prob where I'll be aiming .

2 attacking team, 2 good squads and a very good weather in Manchester - loads of bet but small stake on each
Over 45.5 @ 1.91
Over 4.5 tries @ 1.50

No news at the moment but gutted I missed the -9 early this week
Botia is injured for La Rochelle which is a big blow and still without a proper 10 (Sinzelle doing OK but clearly he is not a Fly Half) .
On top of that Montpellier rested last week end while LR played the CCup and Montpellier at home have been so far, apart from Bordeaux, destroying any team coming there so I would suggest to take the -12 but not a huge stake

Edinburgh -5 / Cardiff +11 / Benetton -8 @ 6.85
Second leg looks shaky now but you never know. Pretty confident on the other 2 legs.

I think their energy has to be totally sapped.....I liked the Blues going into this (without the shit) but I think they will just throw the towel in a bit here...

it was decided to push back kick-off time to 18:15 on Saturday, 7 April in Toyota Stadium, Bloemfontein. The match will be broadcast live on SuperSport 8.
15:00 Gates open
16:00 Curtain Raiser – SuperSport Rugby Challenge warm-up match
18:15 Toyota Cheetahs vs Cardiff Blues
So I guess there will be a bit of channel surfing happening tomorrow

Damian went off the field on 30 mins

Ah well there you go then. Probably explains why the wheels have fallen off

I went with the same. Not feeling very confident though.
