Edit: Manawatu passing is awful - not even schoolboy level. I'm haemorrhaging cash like nobodies business!

Over 58 would be safe. +13 not so much.

Neither looks safe at the moment - 40 scored in the 1st half and so far 5 in the 2nd 65mins

Chiefie, mate, rectify the jinx please!

You jinxed it in the wrong way!

We can wait till Christmas and they will never score a point anymore!

The power of jinxing

Was on over 55.5 - that was way tooo tight.

We all win. Hurrah!

Maybe for a few seconds though - in my case about 2400 of them ....

The only other game I can watch here in the UK today is Benetton Rugby v Glasgow Warriors and I'm surprised that Glasgow are favourites considering Glasgow lost their last 4 matches last season and Benetton finished strongly with a few wins. Also, Benetton beat Edinburgh in a pre season friendly.

So my hard earned winnings are going on Benetton +4pts.

Perpignan will make big rotation on Saturday. Stade Rochelais -26 and team overs all day long.

Butchery on paper.

Also big confidence on Cardiff +6.5 against a mixed Munster lineup.

Benetton +5.5 as well, cannot trust Glasgow and the italians at home are not easy to defeat.

Boks over 29.5 @ 10/11

Am I missing something? The points line for the Lions vs Bulls is at 52.5...The Lions under Van Rooyen have never been known to defend well and are coming off the back of a 43 - 45 loss to Sharks in preseason. At Ellis Park, in perfect conditions for running rugby, surely this is free money?

That overs looks golden, all over it!!!

Its looking a little grey in Auckland but I don't think it will rain. Not much wind gone Canterbury Over 34.5. Even Manawatu managed to slap 33 on these guys.

Cracking bet won after 50 mins!

Over is 3/3 already this week

Auckland Tasman up next only game I'm iffy on the Total because Auckland has been misfiring a lot. But have taken Taken Tasman over 21.5.

Weathers still good for running rugby hopefully Auckland plays ball for an open game otherwise I can Tasman winning this one.

Because it's a Ranfurly Shield game, I'm giving Wellington a chance.

Bet 1: Wellington +5.5 @1.87
Bet 2: Over 55.5 points @1.83

Also had decent cash on a draw. Ffs. Shambolic.

Unjinxing squad needed desperately! Lions v Bulls is as bad as the previous game - to end the half, 5M lineout not straight ffs

Dire game, missed opportunities all over the park and yet there was a chance at the end and fluffed.

I'm changing my name to Boracic Lint !

Geez that pathetic display in joburg has soured what had been a cracking betting week up to then.

Taken a bit more of Boks over 29.5, more out of annoyance. Hoping for a fast start.

Heavily invested in over 49.5 in Argentina.

Hoping Willie and Kriel miss 20 tackles between them.

Southland over 17.5

if ever the time wasting ref or last night's TMO officiates again I sure would like a heads up - definitely a "no bet" scenario - what an sweaty last 5 mins to see -14.5 arrive when actually it never should have been in doubt

Wow, last gasp to win the cash at the end there! Unfortunately I was cleaned out by the Bulls game which is probably in itself lucky as I think I would have had a heart attack at the end of that test lol

Worcester Warriors vs Exeter Chiefs

The Warriors are about a month behind the rest of the Premiership in terms of their pre-season preparations, and that was visible last week in their 45-14 defeat at London Irish.

Worcester lost 16 games last season, 11 of them by more than 20 points, and were given a 16-point start at London Irish in round one but lost by nearly double that margin.

Exeter ran in three tries last week to beat the team who had the best defence last season, Leicester.

Worcester conceded an average of five tries per match last season, and last weekend they conceded 7 from the Irish.
They were penalised 16 times last weekend – more than any other side.

Bet: Exeter -14.5 @1.90

Agree with sentiments from Quill, exeter should be too much. But taken a price boost as don’t want to get too involved -

Exeter win both halves by 7 or more @ 11/4
