Super Rugby Week 9 and Other Rugby

On the same.run. -18 and Over 50.5 not sure how i lost both after that 1st half. Just freaks you out over the time.

Over 4.5 penalties at WSB.

With Pollard there and it being humid I'm thinking the teams won't go for tries but will kick penalties.

Try before 14:30 in sharks game
Looking for in play

Someone forgot to tell the Bulls that it's humid and wet.

really this joke is old

Stayed away from the Sharks v Bulls and by the looks of things on here it seems like it was the right call.

Gonna stick a unit on Southern Kings +17.5 v Cardiff Blues at 10/11 Bet 365

they should close down ep kings rugby @ get a emerging springboks team to play

Your probably right there. They look absolutely clueless and particularly terrible in defence. They've had an awful season in the Pro 14. I've officially given up watching this game as it's just painful. 0-40 with 42 minutes on the clock

Toulon -13 @ 10/11
Toulon tries over 3.5 @ 11/10
Total tries over 4.5 @ evens

Trymarkets came off, handicap grinded home in the 2nd... the good form (minus Rieko Ioane) continues!

Any tips for Toulouse v Racie Bradie and co? Surely a comfortable home win considering Racing are rotating plenty in the build in the big game with Munster? Is the handicap too low? Thinking of doing decent strike on the minus.

Its a tricky game - Must win for Toulouse but looking at the results last night, Racing would need a bonus point (at least) to stay at their actual place and have a good chance to avoid a quarter final.
On top of that, Racing is a painful team to play and the squad is not as bad as we can imagine as there is almost 2 strong squad within the Racing Squad.
Toulouse 1-12 would be my move but I am not taking anything (yet) on this game

Exeter played really well last week, and London Irish haven’t been on great form lately in my opinion, so backing Exeter today

Exeter -11 @ 10/11
Exeter over 30.5 points @ 10/11

@ Northerner and other Betfair users

I am restricted to £11 so will wait and hope to have the same on other bookies but the under 6.5 tries @ ST v RM is Golden imo
Racing is a painful team to play with a strong defensive approach and this is too high - not a huge stake on it but that deserves something as i m predicting a cut of 4,5 or 5,5 on other books

bit of a disparity on points total for la rochelle game
bet365 45.5 1.83
befair 52.5 1.9
the 45.5 seems fair to me and taking a medium strike on it

Adding Exeter -16 @ 8/5 and -21 @ 7/2, both at William Hill

Not really looked into this game too much but had a scroll through Castres' recent games away from home. Scored 7, 17, 7, 3, 3, 31 and 7.

Not hugely promising, but like I say don't know too much about this game in particular

I agree about the squads, it's still a quality line up. Carter at 10, who has looked very sharp in his last 2 appearances off the bench.
I like the way Racing are playing at the moment. They should be high on confidence with recent run of 4 wins, including away at Clermont (CC QF) and Lyon.

Ladbrokes have cap at +13, which I have taken a chunk of.

Bradie, on a separate matter, where is the best place to source Top 14 lineups when they are released? (Preferably in English )
I understand they are announced at 12 noon on Fridays, is this right?
Cheers (B)

I personally use that link : www.allrugby.com/news/top-14-2018-j24-compos-69.html
You have all the squads but they are not announced at 12 like in the Aviva and the Guinness competition but later during the day except for the Sunday games (announced normally on saturday early afternoon)

I'm also backing Saracens to get a big win today. Getting to the point of the season where the big teams want big results, and with Saracens out of Europe their full focus on getting a good playoff place in the Prem.

Saracens -17 @ evens
Saracens -22 @ 8/5
Saracens -27 @ 3/1

Scaling down the plays in line with the odds

Exeter -11 @ 10/11
Exeter over 30.5 points @ 10/11
Adding Exeter -16 @ 8/5 and -21 @ 7/2, both at William Hill
Saracens -17 @ evens
Saracens -22 @ 8/5
Saracens -27 @ 3/1

Full house!

Now to watch the golf, anyone on the golf forum might have seen I backed Si Woo Kim E/W @ 100/1 for the RBC Heritage, he's now 4/6 at the start of the back nine...

8 tries - apologies to anybody who followed me on that one, I got this game totally wrong

I too got this wrong, Racing never at the races. (Pun intended)
