My Super Rugby projected handicaps
Hurricanes -6.5 v Highlanders
Blues -4.5 v Chiefs (interesting this one as I understand Chiefs have qualified and Blues cannot due to Chiefs having more wins)
Brumbies -14.5 v Force (playoff)
HCC semi's current handicaps at WSB
La Rochelle +6.5 v Leinster
Toulouse -10.5 v Bordeaux

This has to be one of the most satisfying bets you've posted. Outstanding work S.O.A.P!

Wits need win badly and have gone with a semi strong team, while madibaz have completely rotated and are clearly targeting the next match.

McMillan will certainly rest a few, but wouldn't surprise if the Blues did too.
Coupled with their injuries, lack of leadership and poor recent form - I find it hard to see them running away with it

Then Blues are in general good on that type of nothing to play for match, should be a good entertaining running rugby. If Chiefs is resting players H will drop around 10+ quickly so locking a lot of -5.5 at the moment
After initially moving to -10.5 line now Blues -15.5 after teams announced

CUT +27.5 looks like a big overreaction
UWC win @ 31/20 looks good value
Shimlas -5.5 should cruise in?

+16.5 here now I will cover a bit and hope for a 6 - 16 victory margin which is a decent gap.
Taking Canes on Board as well Ioane ruled out.
Hope to get back on the show one day!

Can anyone help? Is it a mugs bet, can’t find rules.
WSB were offering a market I have not seen before. Bulls game vs Lions.
Now I can’t find it. Something to do with passes. Morne Steyn vs ..
Excuse the lack of detail, but it has now disappeared.

I saw that but also wasn't sure what it was, believe it was live on Facebook and related to their sponsorship of the Blue Bulls - also curious
Enjoyed the show and here is the podcast version

NOLA Gold vs Toronto Arrows
The team from Toronto has won two in a row and are coming from a big win away in New York, 53-12.
They have several Argentinian internationals in their squad, which makes a big difference in their league. NOLA doesn't have players of similar calibre, so Toronto should win this comfortably.
Two weeks ago Toronto beat Seattle 52-7. They have scored the biggest number of points in their conference.
Bet 1: Toronto -4.5 @1.81, sportsbet.com.au
Bet 2: Team Total points - Toronto over 32.5 @1.80, bet365
