I gave away Friday profits in Super Rugby after a fast start but overall a good weekend for me hitting profit in all 3 6 Nations games with the 4/1 Ireland win the highlight - although Wales so nearly delivered at 9/1 

Six Nations takes a break but we have a full house of URC, the 3rd round of Super Rugby, Top 14 and some Varsity Cup which we can cover in this thread 

The Super Rugby blog is up and running and here are my projected handicaps 

Moana Pasifika -3.5 v Western Force
Queensland Reds -4.5 v Highlanders
Fijian Drua +10.5 v Hurricanes
Chiefs -8.5 v Crusaders
Brumbies -2.5 v Blues

The URC blog is also on the go and early betting should follow tomorrow

SRP Blog Updated with opening handicaps - in brackets next to mine 

Moana Pasifika -3.5 (-1.5) v Western Force
Queensland Reds -4.5 (+0.5) v Highlanders
Fijian Drua +10.5 (+14.5) v Hurricanes
Chiefs -8.5 (-8.5) v Crusaders
Brumbies -2.5 (-7.5) v Blues


 A 5 point difference in the Reds and Brumbies games and 4 in the Drua. I would be surprised if the line in the Reds and Blues games did not move closer to mine during the week.

1st Varsity Cup match priced up. I don't know where the books got 19 from. This can easily be 50.

Flying into Pukke -19.5 @ 17/20

Pukke by 71 points or more @ 55/1. Crazy price

I think Sunbet are pretty decent with VC, likewise the bookies I am funded with at the moment didn't have it - those that did took a right, royal pounding

Early thoughts ahead of tomorrows Super Rugby team announcements:

Moana should beat the Force, reckon strongest XV will be back this weekend. Moana -2.5 cap the play. 

Half unit on Drua win @ 11/2 Churchill Park not an easy place to visit and NZ teams have been rolled here before.

Reds v Highlanders. Highlanders look to have improved from last season, but their form away from home has been shocking the last few seasons. Not getting involved.

Chiefs v Crusaders. Chiefs all the way, reckon 8.5 is still value. Might end up 13+. McKenzie also rumored to start this weekend. Chiefs -12.5 @29/20    

Brumbies v Blues. I've also got this around 7.5/8.5 so no play at this moment.

An early opportunity to throw cash away tonight on the Pro D2 anyone?

The game (Soyaux v Valence)  is on youtube for free.

Weather looks good in the Bordeaux region so I'm on over 51.5.

EDIT: Another bad start and already playing catch up weekend rugby on a Thursday lol

I'd have expected much more from a player like G. Bridge, than being so relaxed on his way to scoring what looked like an easy try, only to allow himself be tackled by a Moana player and knock the ball on.

Watching the game and seeing that Force player walking in right beside the posts...all alone, and the losing the ball.

Just makes every Force points or win bettor losing their minds. 

I mean just finish the play.

So even after converting a try the TMO can rule it out.
I thought once converted, the try was valid on the scoreboard.

Bridge's try earlier was converted and then ruled out after TMO saw it was knocked on in the tackle.

Haha, I say the replay and thought "oh my god ..how" but then I saw the conversion and was happy as I thought it would count or they don't have any TMO today 😂😂...

Only to see the REF checking it after the conversion.
