interested to see how lions v lyon game gets priced up. from what i can gather lyon have travelled with most first choice players, so hoping to get a decent plus on them, they will be loving the weather compared to back home right now.

Back in the mix I hope everybody had a nice start of the year.

O64.5 bulls-bristol @1.80 2u
O57.5 saracens-st @1.80 2u
Leicester -29.5 @1.80 2u

Both scream overs, my expected line in Pretoria is about 72 points and 61 in London so value in the overs.
Leicester going strong while AB travels with a young squad, Leicester should put the gas, expected line around 35 points advantage for the home team.

Waiting for points in Bordeaux as well.

Just Oyonnax -22.5 @1.90 2u

Carca with heavy rotation and Oyo going strong, weather looks to be bad but synthetic pitch.

Guys just a heads up 

Loads of rain in Joburg and Pretoria the last 2 weeks. 

Forecast ok for tomorrow when I last looked but conditions can look ok only for a massive storm 30 minutes later

bulls v bristol over 63.5 @ 5/6

lyon + 15 @ 10/11
lions v lyon over 56.5 @ 5/6 (might hold out a bit for lyon points line on this one, think they have come to play a bit).

Bath over 26.5 @ 10/11

rain is light but this pitch is in great condition for NH, must be a hybrid of sorts.

Geez lads I am not feeling this Champions Cup at all 

Only good thing about last night was that I took a double and never got too involved - I didn't watch the games but neither of my unders plays was a runner. 
The bookies must have cleaned up on Edinburgh game as they were well backed 

Will have a look at todays games but not sure how involved I will get

South I like the way you are leaning on Lyon points. 

Have woken up to clear skies and weather looks decent for this evening. My one concern is how the pitch has held up from recent heavy rains but hopefully the sun bakes it hard throughout the day. 

I don't know this Lyon team but from what I have read they are taking this seriously 

BET: 2 units Lyon over 21.5 at 0.82/1 at Betx

cancelled out my lyon + cap bet to keep focus purely on lyon overs. a lions win by 14 would be an amazing middle on cap.
