Missing du Preez twins badly and need to get ball to Esterhuizen this 2nd half, hardly been mentioned and was strong last few games.
Join the club, I am currently tearing up my Sharks to qualify ticket, and throwing it in the bin

How bad is the wet weather. Was lining up an unders play on Wolves points, but after getting burned last week in Durban I'm weary.
I was planning to fire Lioms 1st half over 26.5 but it's cold and quite wet here and I prefer Sunwolves under 20.5 points - can't watch Blues game as will be watching my son okay and having a strike on this one
I am actually hoping the Lions don't get too far ahead too early

Slightly off topic - anyone still spread betting? BetX / WorldofSport have stopped, not sure about SportsBet, they seem to be scaling down. Would be great to have a better offering in SA.

Agree 100%. I've watched thousands of rugby games in my time - never have I seen a team butcher so many opportunities. Absolute disgrace!!

I know I WOULD run if I played (I'm at the stadium).
I took over 53.5 points and team totals over 27.5 and over 25.5.
Good luck!

Ridiculous how quickly it all changed, complete capitulation from the Rebels too

Nicely played , a little bit of sweat early on and then trotted in as Brent said. (B)

Taken over 51.5 pts @ 5/6.
weekend recovered, just wish i'd added match shirts.
Was hard work yesterday after Blues smack, England in-running pts literally landed deep into overtime (sorry coil!), and thankfully skipped Lions and Jags games, both shock results.

Today , I back Waratahs plus 2.5 in running after the Rebels go 0-5 up. Looks correct , leave the bet and watch the Waratahs romp home .
Result , I see it's posted as a loser .
It's flipping a HT plus 2.5 .
Result , it's a loser .
Been in this game over 30 years and still make mistakes .
Fed up .
It would have put me slightly up for the weekend now solidly down .
Anyone else been caught or fooled by either too many markets or just not checking .?

Yes I have coil, but every mistake I have made I never cancel, I either take another one or die with it, I have had more mistakes go my way than against. But I do check my bet every time, I have never cancelled a bet ever
Absolutely never, ever worry about the stuff you cannot control!!

I did not see capitulation, I saw Waratahs believe and play like it was their last game on earth, sure the Rebel's made a couple fo mistakes, but the waratahs played unbelievably, this was game was Great Waratahs and good Rebels

No doubt the Waratahs were clinical in the second half, they flicked the switch and turned it on, but you could see the Rebels were shell shocked after a couple quick tries and couldn't hold it together. They turned over possession at every chance for a good 20-25mins there and the Waratahs just kept capitalising
Regardless, good to see some quality and entertaining rugby in an Aussie derby for a change. More afternoon games perhaps!
