This weekend Ireland take on Australia and here is my projected handicap
Ireland -8.5 v Australia
I think the Aussies look tired and could be there for the taking
The Premiership and URC also return - I have no feel for the teams so not going to attempt capping
There are some big games to look forward to incl:
Ulster v Leinster
Sharks v Stormers
Connacht v Bulls
Munster v Lions
There is also Top 14 action
Have a cracking week everyone and if you are not on the newsletter list you can sign up in seconds at this link bit.ly/gftgnewsletter

They are getting murked next week and -8.5 seems generous especially since half the irish team was put to rest this weekend.
I think the handicap will be higher ( -10.5 to -12.5 ) but we'll see

What made you go with SF here? I'd looked at this game and read that Racing had a great record away to SF so when SF scored their 1st try I went in on Racing +12.5. They then went on to concede 5 tries on the trot ffs ........

I looked at team compositions and noted Racing were more affected by international matches. Fickou, Le Garrec. No Farrell and Tuisova was on duty for Fiji in Dublin

Strong sarries lineup despite international absences, very balanced. I cannot see Newcastle coping with the Saracens, for me line should be around 3 scores difference for the away side.

Kinda surprised not to see Skelton even if his performance was meh last week.
Is he injured ? Or back to club duties ..?
ps : Still think this should be a comfortable win for Ireland, like -10+
The handicap could be high though, this Aussie team isn't FIji

Didn't manage to put 3u but Benetton rotates heavily while Edinburgh goes strong. For me 3 scores difference.
EDIT: surprisingly orbit let me put another unit so 3u

Along the same lines here, happy I didn't punt it already as it moved out ,always a little cautious when the majority opinion is against you

Arg -9.5
GB and Ireland played an cracker first game with both teams knackered after 7+min of sudden death.
Team GB managed the win, and I believe they might target their last game against Uruguay to qualify to the cup phase.
2 of the last 3 H2H included a 50-0 and 31-5

They play in Creteil, no La Defense. Actually I had a predicted line around 40 points so no overs for me just ST +3

Chalking it as a loss to hopefully reverse jinx the 2nd half

I guess the reverse jinx worked. The line came out at 7.5 and I was too slow to take it. Same as the Aussie line came out at 20.5, jumped to 31.5 real quick.
By the way the overs have probably hit at 90% clip so far in both men and women games

Fancies for today include
I'm leaning towards the Stormers on the plus 9.5 , the unders also interest me a little and have taken some under 49.5 .
The other bet I like is the Wallabies on the plus , disappointing last week and well beaten but they may be able to pick themselves this week and have taken plus 14.5 at 4/5 .

if was at normal indoor arena would be all over it, but this other ground pitch was ripped up to a mess when Racing hosted Toulon last month, and weather has been worse since. It's a 3rd tier football team ground.

Over 56.5 la rochelle-vannes @1.87 2u
I have both matches above 60's and with this lineups I think there's value in the overs (even with Iribaren at 9 for la rochelle, but very strong backline). Good weather both matches despite high humidity.

Hardly a nightmare? Looks like Pablo went 1-2
