URC Rd 17, Super Rugby Rd 13, U20 Championship, + other rugby 8-10 May

Moana over 15.5 pts @ 10/11

Wet but sort of conditions that might suit them disrupting Canes a bit. 

Heading out for most of the day and a bit pushed for time 

All remaining bets up in the blogs - URC blog here - I have gone Zebre over 3.5 tries but was really hoping for lower lines

Closed out bet on under 16.5 @ 10/11 just after moana conversion missed. Not a game I’m going to waste any more time watching!

Bulls over 53.5 pts @ evens

line is massive but hoping zebre been taking this as a safari holiday with nothing to play for.

I was on over 13.5 in live play which looked extremely unlikely for most of the 2nd half. Phew!

Brent limps home .....
 

I'm withdrawing from Super Rugby for the rest of the season. Just can't catch anything. 

URC Fancies today:

Bulls -33.5 
Bulls First Try Scorer - Marco van Staden @ 11/1

Benetton +10.5
Lions +13.5
Connacht -3.5
Dragons +1.5

 

As good as the Baby Boks have been I can’t believe the handicap’s gone out all the way to 24.5

NZ u20 +24.5 for me here

When Zebra cant hook their own ball in a 5M scrum and Bulls pass into touch then you know the overs is unlikely. Short by 3 pts ffs.

With you - was looking great on 20mins! :-o
 

France women over 40.5 pts @ 10/11

they have been kind to me this tournament so will stick with. 

So I was doing great yesterday until I started betting overs on the URC Welsh games. What dire skill levels. The number of reset scrums seems to be much higher in these games. I thought there had been a directive years ago to speed these things up? I blame the refs - no urgency to get things moving and resetting the scrum instead of free kicking. One side will be at fault and if you dont know then take a guess and free kick or penalty. FFS!

Anyway, there are 2 games I can watch today, Ebbw Vale v Llandovery ( ) and Racing v La Rochelle. There is also Newcastle v Harlequins to consider. Any thoughts? These Sunday evening French games tend to be high scoring??

What's happened to Pablo btw??

Great call on the Baby Blacks there guys - I totlaly missed the game but had expected a line of 15.5 so like to think I would have followed on the plus 

An up and down weekend for me with more downs than ups but fortunatly couldn't watch alot and kep stakes small 

 

Good point on Pablo I know his contributions are missed and I hope he is well

Gone Exeter v Bath, Exeter +6.5. They dont get beat at home much soooooo

I've been wondering about Pablo too. His tips were so good. Can we find him

Hoping to not undo a good Saturday but expecting a response from Bath after a painful defeat last week

Bath over 32.5 @ 10/11

Bet dead already. 20 min red and Bath look still hungover from Bordeaux match, while Exeter locals swaying the officials their way.

+1.

Loved to read his insights on Rugby overall, especially french.

Sunday night french rugby and nothing to follow 🥲. Might have to come up with some bet, or rather leave the game alone

Racing -7.5. Their home ground has been a bit of a fortress recently.

Last bet of what's been a good weekend - so far!
