Rugby and league 2011

[Gee]

for the HT lead.

hope they hold on.

on my way home now to watch on fox...

[Beniphone]

Yea, so many chances blown for aucks, Southland with the majority of position but not making the most if it, aucks could hold on

[RLF]

Hey Auckland where was this form in the last 3 matches..

[Beniphone]

At the bookies maby

Good to see Joe rock getting over the line

[Beniphone]

Is it a come back?! Lol

[Gee]

Lol. The form is back. Auckland defence is so ****** here..

[Gee]

Nice. Glad those of you on 6.5 covered as well! !

Edit: crap loss for you though alt :/

[Beniphone]

Cash Auckland

[showtiime]

ahhh!

had auckland 1-12.

Well my luck or lack there of continues.

[TwoWays]

Auckland backers won this easy. First they're winning, then losing, then losing by more, then losing by not so much, then losing, then covering, then covering by more, then covering by whole lot, then covering, then losing the cover, then covering before game over.

What an emotional rollercoaster for a few bucks!

[Meyhem]

Good work on otago + auckland tonight i see

Northland v BOP tomorrow, surely the bay are due for a loss/non cover

[Alt75]

haha damn yet another game I get screwed by .5/1 point

[showtiime]

I feel your pain

[RLF]

That's tough. On form Bay should win 20+ but yeah, this round most teams are turning around poor form. 8.5 line I think

[Beniphone]

Bop 1-12 or NL +8.5 or stay away imo. Too tough

[Meyhem]

1-12 @ 2.75, hmmm

Lines moved to 9.5 also, I think i heard on the radio that Ranger is out for the rest of the season with a cut kidney

[SaffaCappa]

Boom Auckland Jaysus, what a game! Anscombe is a very good number 10 for the future.

Roll on the weekend.

[Meyhem]

Decent team, good depth, I would like to see Hore/Thompson come on quite early in the 2nd. I really hope Wepu dosent start his kicking game "aka giving the wallabies ball to run at us"

I wonder if Henry has a plan for Cooper running off to the wing when it comes time to defend, Id like to see Sivi/Gear run him the **** over out there

[RLF]

Cooper defends at fullback. Beale defends on the wing.

NZ 1-12 and Wallabies +11 for me.

[Meyhem]

Cooper defends at fullback. Beale defends on the wing.

NZ 1-12 and Wallabies +11 for me.

"THE WALLABIES will persevere with Digby Ioane as their frontline defender and hide Quade Cooper near the wing during Saturday night's Bledisloe Cup Test."


This is why i'm worried about Wepu's kicking

[RLF]

BoP 1-12 looks the best bet tonight

[showtiime]

BoP 1-12 looks the best bet tonight

I was thinking the same thing, but I've been burned a lot lately on 1-12 margin so I'm afraid to pull the trigger.

[Meyhem]

Agreed for value. They have to get bumped soon tho?, a team like BOP are not suppose to go on 4 game winning streaks. Two players that i think should be AB's once they sort afew things - Taniela Moa, This guy is like Wepu more powerful, i hope he doesn't get sold overseas. Masanga also, once he works on his kicking game he could be great.

[RLF]

Luke Braid will be there in no time either

[SaffaCappa]

SA Books have BoP -6.5 at 9/10. Thats where I am headed!

[showtiime]

not looking good.

[RLF]

Yep. This round is where teams turnaround poor form. Should've known

[Beniphone]

They have the attack to come back, they will have a better 2nd half

[Meyhem]

ah well, at least we didn't pick BOP 13+

[PickApprentice]

Anyone thinking about going big on NZ straight this weekend?

[RLF]

Big @ 1.25? Not very smart imo. Rather put it in a multi

I like Canterbury 13+

Tasman gave everything in that game against HB and haven't made that many changes. Canterbury hit some form last week, should have too much fire power.

[showtiime]

RLF - any lean on the HB wellington game?

[RLF]

I'm thinking Wellington, books have it spot one with either side even. I can't really split them.

[Beniphone]

Line started at bay 1.75 wellie 2.00, now even

Only now looking at games

[RLF]

Dragons 1-12 looks good too
