Two teams that have cost me plenty in the form of Jags and Blues. Have added some higher plusses on the Jags into a few plays but still looking for something solid.

Know conditions are not that good in Auckland, but based on quotes I am happy to go overs. Blues over 23.5 points at 17/20 and Blues to win and over 40.5 match points at 1.36/1
Let the battle begin www.twitter.com/hanrickswart

Onto the rugby, SportingBet at under 46.5 points in the Blues/Jaguars game gets my vote.
Tempted to go for a Jaguars win, but will watch the first few minutes and get a feel for the game.

I am not entirely convinced the Jags can win in NZ but it would be a big statement (albeit against the Blues) if they actually could. Genuinely seems like they play better away from Argentina which is extremely strange as you think it would be the other way around but if would appear that they play with a bit more freedom on the road.
Managed to catch the end of the Lions game and i woke up shocked with the result

Totally agree with you it should have been a penalty try.

No I think the Sunwolves win last year over the Blues even though it was in Tokyo.

I don't think it will rank as one of the top 50 upsets - single digit favourites the Blues - still good job to those who backed them outright an on the cap - pleased I stayed out of that one

Definitely not the biggest upset - not even of the season! Bulls beating Canes in week 2. Even Blues beating Lions at Ellis started at a higher cap if I'm not mistaken...

Take over 8.5 tries 13/10 Sportingbet at the break - not convinced this game will open up but there is a good chance

Good point and on reflection i can see where you are coming from. I was looking at it more of a case of an Argentine team going to NZ and winning (even though it is against the Blues)

Agreed, really thought they'd pile on the points in the 2nd half. Cost me a packet. Brumbies are just awful though.
Would really like Ospreys +3 and also Scarlets -12 to come in now

I thought the Crusader's defence was really good, however, the Brumbies were hopeless in the fact that they couldn't get across the line when 15 on 13. Those games are frustrating when the team "camps" themselves in the opposition 22 for long periods of the game and basically end up killing the game. The Crusaders will be gutted that they didn't get the bonus point try right at the end.

Found a very good value bet
John Muldoon Man of the Match @ 13/5 with PaddyPower
This is Muldoons last home game with Connaught after 15 years of wonderful service to his province, All week this has been talked about in the papers radio etc as his Farewell game and with this game being broadcast here on Irish television the commentators will be doing everything in their power to hand it to him,
Great value IMO

I reckon that once the Cheetahs get their 4th try they could switch off a bit and I am hoping for a big Kings plus in running.
I also see loads of tries in this game, quote is over 8.5 at 15/20 and I am going to have a strike on this.

Over 3.5 tries HT kings vs Cheetahs - should be an open game
On the Agen v Clermont game - there is a risk of thunderstorms but cut are low compared to French bookies
Over 41.5 @ 1.83
Over 3.5 tries @ 1.61
Over 4.5 tries @ 2.37

He's up against Ntabeni Dukisa who's not keen on tackling.

Nicely up for weekend, going to skip cheetahs game and focus on highlanders. I’m still not sure weather to stick with gut on highlanders cap or just go for points. Someone convince me!

Kings twitter been very focal the last week about their last weekend in the competition etc etc so I don't think we will see a weakened team and the Cheetahs will look to build momentum. Agree with the sentiments on SWD and saw now EP cancelled a warm-up game against them so things aren't well there.
Additionally, looking to the Griffons, they smacked the Leopards away last week and play at home against the Cheetahs. WP was the only one of the "big teams" to win last week when they put 50 past EP away.
Have taken
Cheetahs -17.5
SWD 13/10 for the win
Griffons +7.5
and into an acca for 7/1.
Finally a result on Twitter. EP 20-34 SWD.
Thanks Cettas - 1/3 in!
