Otago looking more average than Miss Amamzimtoti. Running in quicksand. :(

Fiji have named their A team against Tonga, I’m unsure if Fiji will go -16.5? Any thoughts?
Tonga has made 8 changes from the team that beat the western force 19-15.

Any thoughts on Georgia v Scotland game? The line opened at +7 and has now moved out to +11.5. Scots have made 10 changes to the side that beat France. Scotland become the first tier one side to play in Georgia. Georgia just beat the Southern Kings by 4 points.

I’m on the opposite side tonight, France playing basically Toulouse backline, last game at home, but I hate big handicaps. Have gone France over 33 points.

Same here even on Brisbane ML @2.50 for me there should be favorite. 8 players in the Reds SR squad including brillant youngsters and a classy 9-10 pairing. The Drua have lost a large number of players from last year and they have 4 U20 starting (their U20 are not AUS U20 level) + Drua are in general not best travelers. I may read it wrong but on paper there is much more class and a better pack for Brisbane

Italy concede a try with a 2 men advantage, led 5-7 at that point, could have been up more probably.

full game swing and its 33-7 now. Well done

As a punter when u see those moments you know it’s going to haunt you by end of game. Massive swing with the yellow as well.

Can’t decide if Italy poor or French good but a poor result on the + cap nonetheless.

Bounce back tomorrow.

Fiji half time -7.5

Fiji team very similar to team that beat France!
Tonga full of NZ born Tongans that were never quite good enough.
Fiji threats all over the park.
Coach McKee v Coach Kefu - No contest!
Confidence 8 of 10

Ireland v Wales, over 4 penalties 1/1. Both teams need a win for different reasons, suspect this may be tight.

Auckland's inability to capitalise on a completely dominant set piece was just outstanding.

Scotland : Blair Kinghorn (Edinburgh); Darcy Graham (Edinburgh), Rory Hutchinson (Northampton Saints), Sam Johnson (Glasgow Warriors), Sean Maitland (Saracens); Finn Russell (Racing 92), Greig Laidlaw VICE CAPTAIN (Clermont Auvergne); Allan Dell (London Irish), Stuart McInally CAPTAIN (Edinburgh), Willem Nel (Edinburgh), Ben Toolis (Edinburgh), Grant Gilchrist (Edinburgh), John Barclay VICE CAPTAIN (Edinburgh), Hamish Watson (Edinburgh), Matt Fagerson (Glasgow Warriors). Subs: Grant Stewart (Glasgow Warriors), Jamie Bhatti (Edinburgh), Zander Fagerson (Glasgow Warriors), Scott Cummings (Glasgow Warriors), Josh Strauss (Blue Bulls), Ali Price (Glasgow Warriors), Adam Hastings (Glasgow Warriors), Huw Jones (Glasgow Warriors).

I see a strong Scottish Team, particularly the backline.

Georgia Team list doesn't mean much to me, but did see their ordinary performances out here in the Pacific.

Tier One v Tier Two.

Betting Scotland -11.5. Looks like money for jam, Maximum Bet.

Scotland over 28.5 points. Although Kings played probably the lesser players of the Georgia squad they still scored freely when they gave it some air.

Getting more confident as the match approaches that Griquas lost their final last week.

Nibble on Griquas/Lions HT/FT @ 11/2
But for my main bet I reckon Lions will finish strong. Lions -4.5 second half cap

Up next I think the gap between the 2 nations is big in terms of rugby quality, Scotland to do the job.

Scotland win both halves 17/20

Going back to the well for a second time. Reckon George will be pumped up for this one early doors infront of charged up home fans but Scots to weather the storm in the 2nd and pull away.
Scotland -6.5 second half cap

Taranaki under 21.5 points

This would have won in 10 of last 11 Tasman games. Thoughts?

At last I've had a decent weekend. Currie Cup let me down again, ho hum, so glad it's nearly finished, what a yuch tournament 33% correct on Superbru.
But Mitre 10, now that's better.
And if the Mako had got past the -12.5, I'd have cleaned up. I had them as my banker all week in about 5 accumulators - boy, that could've been a brilliant payday.
Roll on next week. And the WC.
Thanks 3P, Dave, Hanrick, Brent, Couch, and the others for the great tips, much appreciated.

Nice one Kirky. Must say CC hasn't treated me that well but a fair weekend overall. Thanks to all the Mitre 10 Cup lads that is indeed going pretty nicely and keeping me trucking along as we head to the World Cup.

Talking of the World Cup I'm really starting to move my focus to that. If I'm not mistaken we might even start chatting tryscorers and point scorers on Use It or Lose It tomorrow so its full-on World Cup mode for me from here on in (with a bit of Mitre10 in between of course). I'll also be shouting Hanrick's early Free State play home on Saturday.
