Ireland v All Blacks, Scotland v Boks, Eng v Aus + other rugby 8-10 No

Hang on, Scotland put Fiji to the sword scoring over 50 pts against them and Wales are 'only' -5.5 ??

I just don't buy that Wales are that inferior to Scotland and I'll be filling my boots ....

Fiji french-based players will be available this week, much stronger lineup expected.

But if Muntz plays at 10 value will be on Wales, I'd put Armstrong-Ravula there closed eyes.

Ahhh right, of course. But still!

I'm also a little surprised that Ireland are -6.5 against the Darkness? They wont be as bad as they were against England - as long as they sort their line out .....

Agree with BG that Aus can push England

Found Aus +12.5 @ 1.9 with Quinnbet, so have taken that

The more I look at the matchup, the more I like Argentina to cover the - handicap against Benetton.

They've more than held their own against the other three rugby championship teams, and i rank them a tier or more higher as a rugby nation than Italy.

RE: Wales v Fiji

Gatland would be a complete fool if he picked anything other than the strongest team possible for Sunday. This is a must win game for Wales and should they lose he's toast. So I'm on the -, and the straight win.

Have I lost my marbles? A distinct possibility as I've just put a biggish bet on Kamala to be the next president @7/5 .......

Anyone seen any points lines for Ireland Nz on Friday. I’m thinking unders here would love to see a high points total but expecting about 45.5

Gatland suerly will pick his best team because as you said its a bit of a must win game as Wales & him are on that loosing streak of 8 losses in a row barring the Reds 1pt win.
But even if he looses these 3 autumn games i cant see the WRU sacking him, because they'l have to pay off his big contract which is up to the 2027 world cup , plus some or most of his staff whilst also having to fork out on a new head coach. WRU have no money to waste.

Thank God that you lost. The Golden age of America starts now.

That God of yours saved Trump for a reason - he just said .....

The planet is screwed dude.

My BOTW
NZ win
Arg - 3.5
Fiji win

this multi will get u 18.46

Nothing goes according to script
If NZ doesn't win with all the Practice they got recently then they got serious issues.
Fiji will break the Welsh and i have to go with Oracles Los Pumas who definitely will come hungry on Sat.

NZ over 10.5 1st half pts @ 11/10

Thank you for having me Brent.

My english level is a little bit rusty but I enjoyed the show.

you were very good

The last three meetings between Ireland and All Blacks have been decided by no more than 12 points.

Ireland have won three of their last four home meetings with the All Blacks and all three were by less than 12 points.

Bet: Ireland 1-12 @2.50

While at some bookies the handicap is still at -6.5, I found -5.5 at Unibet at odds 1.88.

Definitely agree that tries overs appeals more than points for France, will join you once more bookies pricing up.

And great to put a face and voice to the brilliant insight from pablo. Well done on your show debut sir.

ENG AUS over 50,5 @ 5/6

Expecting an open game at Twickers.

Yes man, Pablo. Great to see you out there. Fantastic debut!

Pablo coming in HOT - Well done on popping that GFTG cherry!

This weekend has a few tempting spots -

1. GREAT spot on France -16.5 HT Brent - I was eyeing that out all week and with the pack France have picked, rolling maul tries should be smoother than jam on a scone

2. Mauvaka ATS @ 1.72 is a mistake and far too low. He is a threat in open play as an added bonus, but France will score at least 3 rolling maul tries in the first half. Mauvaka 2+ is worth a nibble @ 4.5

3. NZ over 9.5 HT looks the goods.

4. Arg +3.5 & Aus +15.5 @ 2.28

5. France over 3.5 Tries first half @2 - Gold

Lets get the brooms out and SWEEP boys!

Nice show yesterday Brent, Oracle and Pablo. Feels like finding a nice GFTG acca this weekend is not too difficult (on paper lol), so looking forward to that Newsletter.

Taking a double for Saturday:
Argentina DNB into France over 7.5 tries @ 26/10

Bet against Wales at your peril! You lot (except Pablo) are going to have egg on your faces! You know what Fiji are going to do, they'll be carrying and passing the ball one handed, making mistakes and giving away loads of penalties. Sure they'll score a couple of fantastic tries but Wales will contain them playing proper test rugby. Wales by 10+

Thanks, mates. It was very nice to be in The Show.

France o24.5 HT @1.83 2u

As was commented yesterday in the show, I see France far stronger than Japan. I prefer this line because I expect them to start fast and eventually put the foot of the gas in the second half. France don't have any problem to kick penalties and keep the scoreboard ticking. Good weather.

Over 3.5 tries first half @2 offers a bit better value imho - They definitely wont be taking 3's

Provence -20.5 @1.90 2u

There isn't team points lines here (around 36.5 is for 2.5u the overs) so I take the hándicap. Provence going strong, also the bench, while Aurillac makes plenty of rotation.

hello agree with you Pablo for aix -20

im going to aix race 35pts

over 46.5 pts oyonnax grenoble 1.83

@ Pablo - well done on the show last night.
Your English is a helluva lot better than my Spanish!

Fiji have their big players back but I like Wales +5.5pts.
Scarlets and Cardiff have shown some decent form in the URC and sit in 6th and 8th place.
I really rate the massive 2nd row pairing of Beard and Rowlands. I expect Dewi Lake @ hooker to tour with the Lions.
Anyhow- won't be popular here but Wales +5.5pts for me

Wales + PLUS 5.5? I see -7.5 now.

My Apologies - -5.5pts - Boylesports a couple of hours ago.

There's been some rain in Dublin

There is some light rain showing on the radar - oh no, I hate an unders .....

couldn't find the 9.5 so topped up a bit on over 10.5 @ evens.

added Both teams get a yellow @ 5/2

Gone NZ +5.5. Slippery conditions and it seems NZ front row may have the edge ....

I took u49 ha in Dublin @1.84 for just 1u

Also went over 36.5 in live play - could do with a couple of early scores to calm nerves!

Honestly, I hate Nic Berry. The man is clueless. Slow, inept, indecisive, doesn’t know the basic rules about line outs, how is this guy in a job?

Rassie needs to do another 1hr long video on this performance.

Also Ireland don’t look great, but definitely world number 1 right fellas? Lollll

Did you not give up punting on rugby Chiefie? Thought you said that on this forum

What I noticed with the Irish is they rusty.
I expect the same for the Welsh
Fiji had alot more game time of late compared to the Welsh, Fiji should do the Job against Wales

Not nice to watch but cleaned up on the unders. Onto tomorrow

Honestly, I'm sick and tired of being on the receiving end of tight ones. Missed conversion should have allowed another score in 10 mins and also the penalty hitting the post. Hopeless ...

Nope - that's a decent Welsh side and should be more than good enough.

I’m back. But in moderation. Did you miss me? Xx

Quite right, Irish proper rusty, but Berry didn’t help. He was the stand out eye sore in the game for me.

Not sure what the Irish guys on the forum think of James Lowe celebrating a 50:22 on 72min, 10 points down - felt a little odd?
