The latest Goodforthegame newsletter penned by @BrentGraham with best bets for the weekend 14th to 15th February including Six Nations Rugby and the T20 Cricket World Cup
The opening weekend of Six Nations was one I would like to forget with neither the overs in Rome nor the Wales handicap looking like runners.
We have plenty of great rugby to look forward to this weekend with 3 Six Nations fixtures and 2 Super Rugby Pacific fixtures remaining by the time this hits inboxes.
South Africa v Afghanistan – the greatest T20 ever?
There is also T20 World Cup cricket on the go and that T20 with Afghanistan in midweek was incredible with both teams doing their best to lose it. After Stubbs somehow forced the 2nd Super Over with a 6, I finally relaxed when Afghanistan needed 24 off 4 only for Gurbaz to hit 3 successive sixes – defeat there may well have meant an early exit for the Proteas – what a game.
Couch Critic on fire
With 3 games a day Couch Critic has been working overtime to get his blogs out and he hit some double figure winners during the week including Ngidi MOM against Canada and a full house of 3 from 3 on the West Indies against England.
I mentioned last week we were hoping to have him writing all tournament and thanks to Pokerbet coming in as sponsors he will do just that.

The Handicap
Super Rugby Pacific and Six Nations were on the agenda and what a panel we had with 2 of the finest betting minds around. I was joined by The Mossman and The Admiral and links to the key matches are listed below:
Jump to Blues v Chiefs
Jump to Ireland v Italy
Jump to Scotland v England
Jump to Wales v France
WEEKEND PLAYS
I got an early bet down on the Blues to win against the Chiefs and all Super Rugby bets will be posted in this blog – please don’t scroll too far down though – Friday morning never went well.
The Six Nations games each have their own previews
Click here for Ireland v Italy where I try my hand at a Bet Builder with WSB
Click here for Scotland v England
Click here for Wales v Scotland where the Welsh are a massive (but deserving) +31.5
England to land the Overs
Conditions look like being cold but dry tomorrow and I fancy the over 46.5 currently on offer. England are an extremely fit team and I expect them to get on top at some stage and to deliver 28 points or more.
The 19/20 has gone but you can still get 9/10
BET: 3 units (1-5) England over 27.5 points at 9/10 at Hollywoodbets
Couch’s Corner
Couch has 3 bets for us in New Zealand v South Africa and while the other 2 selections are priced at 17/2 and 16/1 respectively I am going for his pick of New Zealand to hit 9 sixes or more which has shortened from almost 11/10 when the blog went up to 0.89/1
BET: 2 units New Zealand over 8.5 sixes and 0.89/1 at Pokerbet
An 8.3/1 Rugby Treble
Just a small interest on this one
Blues win at 1.48/1
Force win at 11/10
France over 6.5 tries at 0.79/1
BET: 0.5 unit (1-5) at 8.3/1 at Pokerbet
