Thinking along the same lines South. Struggling to enjoy watching and given how time consuming this competition is. The payoff is precious little when it goes horribly wrong! Balancing family time and rugga can be tricky as well. No longer appeals to me as much as it didsouthpaw wrote: Braindead stuff from Brumbies and a terrible result for me. May need to step away for a while, lost focus of late and no longer actually enjoying watching rugby as a result.

Agreed mate - Brumbies used to be so dogged on defence and were bloody hard to score against.
Some woeful defending today, schoolboy error stuff from them. Awful.
Re Racing v Munster, I too like Racing but not sure I'll get too involved. I have some 35/1 on Racing to win the cup, so that will (probably ) be enough interest for me.
Although irrespective of who wins today I'd expect Leinster to be short priced favourite for the final - they were outstanding yesterday and look a class above.

I think the Austrailian Conference has been a weird one this year. Reds, Rebels and Tahs started out really well but Reds and Rebels have faded badly in recent weeks. Reds cannot score points and Rebels look like they've just run out of gas but put up a spirited performance in the 2nd half against the Bulls yesterday. As for the Brumbies? Well they've just been garbage all season.
Definitely agree with you regarding Leinster. They have been thoroughly impressive all season long and are the likely winners of the competition. I think Racing will be pumped for today's game as i know much has been made on Dan Carter going out on a high note and what with home advantage i think they'll be too strong for Munster. Munster however have the prospect of an all Irish final so they won't need much motivation at all

Missed -17.5 but taken -21.5 at wsb - assuming Elephants without their Pro 14 players (team news is hard to come by)

Been a good afternoon and going to push my luck a bit and going Racing over 31.5 points at 17/20 WSB
Have 24 already and think they will take 3 when they can and if that man Thomas gets a gap perhaps he can get his hatrick

Imagine being on shirts, Thomas in 14 giving it to 9 when over line. That's sort of thing that would have happened to me based on some stiff luck this weekend.
i'm on Racing 25/1 tournament outright so will shout home the French side here.

Reading posts looks like Brumbies cost most punters so don't think i was alone, but i'd doubled up at HT so it was a costly Sunday morning rugby.

Brent, with your knowledge of the bookies, can't you convince BetX and/or World of Sport to look at spreads again. Offerings in South Africa are really poor.
Spread betting is virtually extinct in SA which is a shame, I have approached one of the big overseas companies (Spreadex) to come over with no joy and am busy looking at other options.
Sportsbet stopped me placing spreads a couple of years back.

But would also seem there is opportunity for the other companies. Surely fixed odds is getting really crowded now? Other guys could choose key markets (say rugby/soccer/cricket) and then copy international prices. I am guessing SportBet doesn't make its own markets either.

It is interesting that very few firms overseas offer a spreads and fixed odds offering (Spreadex the exception) so I think what is needed is a specialist offer - I guess the question is whether the SA market is big enough?
