I am back from a great holiday and it is time to get stuck into rugby betting again.
I dipped my toes in this week backing Exeter so have put myself under some early pressure.
The Heineken Champions Cup and Challenge Cup continue this weekend and all thoughts, bets and information appreciated. Edit: The Currie Cup also starts, that is a nice surprise

Toulouse are a world class team with a top coach versus a wasps side with 16 players still missing. Toulouse have also had a good rest period due to covid interruptions. Wasps scrum is very weak and they scraped a win vs a Tigers side that were awful in the 2nd half.
The state of the pitch is my only concern as it looked like it was cutting up in the last game but expect the big Toulouse pack to dominate.

So tonight I made Castres plus 8.5 my best bet pf the weekend , to my horror there is now plus 11.5 available, so I have taken out the mortgage and am lumping on.
Interest nibble on Cardiff plus 7.5.
Onto Saturday, the Tigers plus 2.5 at 4/5. I cannot stand Connacht and it's a team that continues to frustrate me. No egg on my face please. The betting has shifted a little probably due Leicester resting a few players.
Bath on the biggest plus is also worth an interest.
meanwhile in AFCON unders on 2.5 goals has been an early Easter present , it's beautiful to watch and should continue for a few more games at least I'd say.

In the Cape Town game I also like overs even though it's a coastal game. Quote is just too low for a Currie Cup game ayed in good conditions. The ref a bit of a concern for overs though. Apart from overs on total points I like Lions overs aswell. Hoping to get over 23.5, but if I don't get that I'm happy to take over 24.5 aswell.
Over 50.5 points at 17/20 in Bloem and over 55.5 points at 17/20 in Cape Town. Also on the double and will still take Lions overs.

Treble live onto Cheetahs -7.5 and WP win.
Taking Cheetahs over 29.5 @ 10/11. Just seen pictures and commentator said ideal rugby conditions - hope he’s got it right!

Yep Hanrick it’s looking dire so far for any overs punts. Not a good opening 15min.

Went unders on Wasps for an interest in the end at 50.5 and sweating bullets
Still going for Leicester plus 2.5 , cannot stand Connacht .
Ospreys looking like they're worth a reasonable wager now with cap at plus 11.5

Covered treble stake on Lions +6.5 @ 17/20. A narrow WP win would be nice.

Exactly James, couldn't believe they never went for 4th try , instead we were royally rogered.

Yes Feck it. Clermont missing the -7.5 blew me out of a 7 leg acca that was big bucks. Damn damn and another damn.Jameson wrote: Unlucky on Clermont there. I just lost again on the useless Scarlets to cap off an awful weekend. Its going to take me a long time to get over that Wasps result though Phewwww !
So a modest win weekend for me, mostly on h/caps, and my curry cup acca the only one of 4 accas coming home. 3 others missed by a single score of less than 3 points in each. Would have quadrupled my outlay instead of returning just 40%.
But a win's a win
