NZ -10.5 @ 9/10
NZ outright RC @ 5/2
added NZ -5.5 2nd half cap @ 9/10
Clear dry conditions expected at a sell out. New ground, not sure a great home advantage for Aussies. Expecting this game to be played at a very fast pace.

They've changed that now. Option 3 is a draw or either side to win by 4 or less points.

1. All Blacks -19.5 at 2to1 (WSB). The death of Brian Lahore couldn't have come on a worst time for the Aussies.
2. All Blacks -10.5 onto WP -13.5 (first currie cup bet for me) comes to 5to2 (WSB).
Will take a bigger handicap on WP if WSB offers it closer to game time. I predict them to win by 25 and more. Undecided on the SA vs ARG game (will go SA on the handicap if pressed for a prediction). Not interested in the other Currie Cup games.

Have to vent first, I see from SuperSport’s schedule for the next two weeks we will only get two games a week. In the past we had the early Saturday and Sunday matches at least. Hopefully it changes later on.
Southland v Northland, for me always the two worst sides, rainy weather in Invercargill and an interesting stat from last years first round - first round last year averaged 42 points. Only after that it picked-up.
As this is probably Southland’s best shot at a win and at home I’ve had a solid strike at under 49 points with WSB.
First week is always tricky but I think I’ll be going unders on everything 49 and over this weekend.

Hi Pierre,
Rugby Park Stadium, Invercargill covered in snow a week from hosting the first Mitre 10 Cup game. Photo / Facebook. You can find on nzherald.com
Points option not offered on tab nz yet. Take all you can get under 49 on this game. Snow is severe and more to come.
Cheers 3P

Like 3Peats Tasman call, have also jumped on them to win the Premiership @ 4.5
They have a powerful squad and think their price is too big.
Lastly also on the ABs -10, expecting them to unleash
Edit: Just seen Dave's post on other thread re Mitre 10 outright - his reasoning is rather more considered than mine, lol
Up the Mako!!
And just seen likely Aus team with no Genia, O'Connor at 13 and Latu at hooker.
Can see the cap going out to -14 or -15

Have taken this and Hanrick's advice for my first ever unders bet, with a few all on's too.
But, no game coverage on supersport this morning !
Does anyone know where we can find live coverage over the internet ? Sunbet do cover the game live, but no visuals.
This is my final straw to cancel our DSTV subscription. It was only SuperRugby and Mitre 10 that's kept me spending R900/month on the absolute rubbish that they dish us every night. Netflix here we come.
But please guys, if you have anywhere on the net that provides live coverage, much appreciated.
cheers and good betting.

Under 24.5 HT @ 1.85
Under 49 @ Evens

Pumas +15.5 / Lions -7.5
- People must have been watching other Pumas games than me, they have really impressed, apart from lineouts last week, and can count themselves very unlucky against TMO's who clearly have a drinking problem. WP does look good as well but that margin is way too massive.
- Less certain on this one but Lions look good....after the halftime whistle. Basing this one also more on how absolutely terrible Bulls have been looking. You'd think they would want to rally after a loss, but they never seem to.
Good luck all!

Thanks Hanrick, I tried but the site started to install all sorts of stuff on my PC, and because my whole life is on the PC with no backups, I chickened out and aborted.
But then I thought: wonder if I can find the site on the smart TV, and viola, in business
So, big screen sport, and I'm cancelling DSTV.
Thanks again , Cheers.

Yes, all Mitre10 Cup games and Currie Cup games and other rugby on there. Cost nothing and no need to sign up. Couldn't get the Pacific Nations cup on there last weekend, but with a bit of searching I eventually found another stream for the Pacific Nations Cup.

Love Harbour +8.5 v Auckland. No Tuipolutu, Scrafton, Papali'i, Ioane, Manu and Trainor has shifted my line a heap.

Over and above the fact that Richie is too valuable a player to have off-field, every 4-5 years the All Blacks step the game up a notch, which puts them in a category above all other teams. This is why they've been the worlds best rugby team for the past 20 - 30 - 40 - more years, THE team to beat.
This having 2 X-factor play-makers on-field simultaneously is them doing exactly that again, just before WC. It multiplies their available tactical plays, which they've had 20 of for the past 5-6 years by double, just as everyone else thought they were finally getting on parity with the ABs: BANG - they double their play options.
IMHO they're going to walk the WC. They'll arrive there in another league, just like they do every time.
Just an opinion.
Good betting guys, cheers.

Awful isn't it? first 5 or 6 minutes i wasn't feeling too bad and then a blitz of points in about 10 minutes and agreed.
Both these sides have no interest in the defence game. Who cares if it is raining lets play like it's the NBA
