I am back from the UK and looking to end the year in style
The punting break has been good although I snuck a few losing punts in on the European Cup early in my holiday before shutting up shop
URC and Gallagher Prem this weekend
Being a a bit out of touch I am not going to have a go at the handicapping this week.
Look forward to your views

Leicester +4 @2 365
Bath -5 @1.9 365
Have taken these plays, the lines have moved on other bookies to 7, 3, and 7 so there's some value to be taken here

Yup, and if they rotate the bookies will adjust, to be sure..southpaw wrote: if Stormers pick full strength side the -15 vs Lions looks a goodie. Lions will not be able to stop the constant attacks. Just a bit wary to fire now as think there is a chance of some rotation.

Montpellier with some rotations (Mercer, Forletta, Carbonel, Darmon and Verhaeghe out) but stays solid up front and pretty good backline. Bordeaux with some absences as well (Poirot, Tameifuna, Petti, Diaby, Douglas, Roussel, Tambwe, Cros) and doesn´t look monstruous so I expect Montpellier to stay tight. For me is a one scoring match.
Scottish derby will be played at Murrayfield, not too humid and nice pitch. Strong wind canceled due to play at Murrayfield and even at a derby I think line is a little bit low.

Anything to sway me towards your over?

Weather forecast for Edinburgh is for he main rain to clear early afternoon followed by showers so things a bit slippery maybe .....

Rain will stop 4 hours before kick off and for Murrayfield pitch is more than enough to stay dry at Kick off.
75 % of relative humidity is not too high. For me o43 is just for one unit, small confidence.
Big confidence in Montpellier+10.5 though.

Will also look at points lines when out, seems to be rain about and we know what that means in Durban

Usap at Aime Giral usually make its games tight and I think they can cope with SR powder.

Unfortunately all the game are off pretty much the same time grrrr .
Medium strike Leicester plus 4.5 , Sale should bounce back but the Tigers should make them fight all the way .
All over Montpellier as well but have only managed plus 8.5 points , hope they don't disappoint .
Lastly I do like Edinburgh but the cap looks well set , instead I have taken a small nibble at 4/5 under 44.5 points .

lol Surprising score lines all around really
Fortunately, I went over 49.5 in live play after the 2 early tries in the Jock game - that looked gone at 55mins mind.

Took a red card for this to come good!
I see that the Sharks are busy losing me cash again ......
EDIT: Its rare that after I open my gob, then my team does good

Sharks bulls overs my bigger of 2 bets today as was less confident on stormers lions being a later game. Taken under 56.5 @ 20/21 to effectively cancel out.
Happy new year to all, hope for a prosperous punting year in 2023.

Wise move - too many mistakes by the players and the officials for overs to have come good in this one ...
Happy new year!

Yeah good call - penalty count is horrendous for Cardiff.

Munster are resting several players, while Ulster have a strong team.
Conditions are very good for running rugby.
Ulster -6.5 @1.90
Total Over 43.5 points @1.84

Similar story here, as Connacht are missing several players, while Leinster have a scary squad.
Bet 1: Leinster -18.5 @1.90
Bet 2: Team Total Tries Leinster Over 4.5 @1.63
Bet 3: Team Total Points Leinster Over 34.5 @1.85

Have started the new year a little worst for wear . The red came in the pack and the Scarlets 7 still shunted the Dragons , couldn't even get a losing bonus point .
