Titans get absolutely shit on by the refs, I can't get my head around it lol

[kingsr]

Its the Dragons, they get all the calls! All the 50/50s goes their way! That sideline ref has a bet on Dragons!

[hawley]

have you seen the Dragons team this week - I think I may hammer the Titans although they have been so bad lately they could possible struggle to beat their own u20's team


Dragons: Jason Nightingale, Ratu Peni Tagive, Alex McKinnon, Matt Prior, Reece Simmonds, Nathan Fien, Ben Hornby (c), Dan Hunt, Dean Young, Michael Weyman, Jack Bosden, Michael Greenfield, Adam Cuthbertson. Interchange (from): Jon Green, David Gower, Daniel Penese, Jake Marketo, Mitch Rein.

Titans: William Zillman, Steve Michaels, Clinton Toopi, Joseph Tomane, David Mead, Preston Campbell, Scott Prince (c), Luke Bailey, Matt Srama, Michael Henderson, Anthony Laffranchi, Mark Minichiello, Luke O'Dwyer. Interchange (from): Matt White, Ryan James, Bodene Thompson, Ben Ridge, Brenton Lawrence.


Couple of names I don't even recognize in that team, although I must admit I don't watch much of the u20's so they could be young guns.

The Dragons do still have Nightingale, Fien, Hornby, Hunt, Young, Weyman so I guess they still have a decent core.

I think I will take a risk on the Titans despite their terribly poor form.

Also think I will take the Roosters as small dogs against the Storm and the Tigers spread and h2h


Great value in some of these games but its a huge risk playing them during SOO times.

Other big play coming up with Roosters on monday night. Line already shifting slightly so may have to lock it in soon.

Titans ML WIN


I'll be staying off the chooks I think.

[compass]

nice picks as usual.

[Beniphone]

Adding another play for tonight, keeping it small as it's gonna be freezing in timaru tonight, it's only stayed under 47 once while being played down south

Crusaders/blues over 47.5

[Beniphone]

Highlanders/tahs over 42 also

[Duff85]

The favourites tonight:
Waratahs-7.5
Crusaders-7.5

[Beniphone]

Tahs highlanders will be a good game, both teams playing for their season, I would play the tahs if it wasn't over a converterd try

[Beniphone]

Blues +8.5
Half time hedge bet

[hawley]

Few tries butchered so far Beni that would of cashed that over easily

[Beniphone]

Yea lol, about 21 points butcherd so far, grrr

[hawley]

Couple of deadest tries missed as well

[rjc]

The force worth a crack do you think Benny? Reds -4.5 seems a bit suspect.

[Beniphone]

Yea I think that lines abit strange, I think it's cause the 2 they have played over there have been 20+ point hidings. not keen to play it

[Beniphone]

Crusaders half/fulltime WIN
Blues +8.5 WIN
Blues/saders over 47 LOSS

Pitty about the over, game pace was fast, should of been 60+, shocking finishers lol

[PickApprentice]

Tahs highlanders will be a good game, both teams playing for their season, I would play the tahs if it wasn't over a converterd try

Tahs line moving by a lot. Now it's -4.5 @ 1.8 from my bookie. Don't know if it worth the chase after my massive loss with Chiefs, but putting a few units on it definitely.

Good luck all!

[Beniphone]

Highlanders/tahs over LOSS

[Beniphone]

Bulls +4.5 WIN

[Duff85]

Playing the Tigers today.
Wests Tigers+5.5
Wests Tigers h2h $2.48

[hawley]

Playing the Tigers today.
Wests Tigers+5.5
Wests Tigers h2h $2.48

Think I will be on it as well at 4.5 / $2.45

[kingsr]

Tigers have a very bad record in NZ. Not sure if they've ever won there? The travel there can be daunting for some especially if it's raining and gloomy. Everyone is waiting for tigers to shine, I'm not sure why? Until they can play a game without dropping the ball 100 times I'm laying off!

[Beniphone]

Warriors -4.5 LOSS
Broncos ML WIN

Warriors blow a 20 point lead in the last 20 mins? lol,

[Duff85]

Yeah thought my Tigers bets were dead... but apparently they were not.

[Brian891]

not knowing the sport well, how big of a choke job is that? 22-4 lead at home and u lose. pretty bad im guessin right? fun to watch though i bet.

[Greekster]

Cant believe my Tigers wager won..thought it was dead

[hawley]

Yeah thought my Tigers bets were dead... but apparently they were not.

Dam bro we had no place winning that bet, although with Marshall the Tigers are always alive

Im pretty torn really, spewing the Warriors blew that but i had Tigers +4.5 / +6.5 at HT and H2H so cashed big

What an epic chokejob. Benji was unreal thoughh

[Beniphone]

Yea shocking, bad beat. There's gonna be some sore wives in south Auckland tonight lol

[dRavidC]

LOL what the heck

broncos up 24-0 with 15 to go. raiders put up 24 points in last 15 to tie it up. broncos with with field goal

warriors up 22-4 with 15 to go. tigers put up 22 in the last 15 to win it.

[Beniphone]

So glad the broncos held on lol

[kingsr]

Wow 2 amazing comebacks!!!

[kingsr]

It's a HUGE lead with 15 minutes to go in the game!

Kevin locke is going to blow up over the next 3 years, kid has got balls, he returns it with speed each time, none of this jogging shit u see half the fullbacks doing. 1/5 times he's busting the line aswell

Came out of the u20s with massive raps on him at the back, two seasons ago when he debuted he had a fantastic season


Last season moving to the wing exposed him pretty badly, he is too little and his defense is pretty bad out there - gets caught coming off the wing far to often.

Fullback is his position and with Hohaia going its just a two horse race with him and fisiahi

[Beniphone]

Yea his defense and covering kicks has improved this year, getting so much more confident aswell

I think we are going to eventually loose lock or fish to another club, $$$
