Canterbury will win but not by 20 points. I thought the spread would be around 11-13 and not 19.5. wtf?

Taranaki were down 33-0 before scoring late garbage points against Wellington, same happened in the Auckland game and they were hammered by Waikato, Canterbury don't give up late garbage points. Think the spread is fair and Canty could cover it, but they are such a clinical side where they'll take 3 points instead of going for tries all game which would be the only reservation I have.

Two plays this weekend -

Wellington -6.5 over Auckland for 4 units

Can't deny wellingtons tremendous form right now, plus last time they played auckland wellington gave a half pie effort and in a playoff no team would do such thing.

Otago -6.5 over Tasman for 4 Units

Was slightly leaning otago last weekend, but with the injuries apparent tasman has NO CHANCE!

Few other picks i cant pull the trigger on but these seem to be the best plays of the weekend.

thanks for the picks.

otago -7.5 still good?

davopnz · 10-19-12, 02:23 AM

great game but otago don't look flash on defense, at the breakdown and scrumaging

benandjerry · 10-19-12, 02:56 AM

enjoyable game for sure, had written Otago -6.5 off for sure too, got some life now.

RLF · 10-19-12, 03:10 AM

You beauty.

rzr · 10-19-12, 03:10 AM

Another amazing cover! Well done eveyone that got on Otago -6.5!

TBsp75 · 10-19-12, 03:12 AM

wow couldn't stop drinking to calm myself down.

should cover easily if it wasn't for 2 intersect tries. great win ppl!

easysaid · 10-19-12, 03:13 AM

BACKDOOR + HOOK!!! Guys this has to be one of the best rugby games ive seen all year, how often do you get 75 points scored in a game that isint a blowout, I did get lucky here tasman threw there guts at this game could have gone either way.

davopnz · 10-19-12, 03:24 AM

epic, just epic

easysaid · 10-19-12, 03:31 AM

Over $2k in profit this season, looking to continue this thread up untill the ITM Cup finals then ill close it untill the AB's end of year tour or the start of the super 15 season

therealdealau · 10-19-12, 04:24 AM

easy, incredible season and well documented. what was your average unit sized bet do you think?

easysaid · 10-19-12, 04:52 AM

1 unit play = $50

obviously you could change that based on your bankroll..

Vinnie Paz · 10-19-12, 08:58 AM

Haven't checke in here for a whole now
Anything today or the weekend?

RLF · 10-20-12, 12:16 AM

You got the ML too?

I had to jump on after reading some of your posts.

What's the deal with extra time? Not golden goal?

RLF · 10-20-12, 12:27 AM

I pussied out on the ML and went small, went big on the cap though.

hawley · 10-20-12, 12:49 AM

hmmm extra time is brutal.

davopnz · 10-20-12, 12:53 AM

another canterbury cover

RLF · 10-20-12, 12:53 AM

That's ******.

easysaid · 10-20-12, 01:03 AM

OMFG!??! my friend in real life just middled this game big time, he got the cover on taranaki +22 that didnt offer overtime for rugby and at the tab he got canterbury -19 wish i followed him..

hawley · 10-20-12, 01:09 AM

Bet365 graded Taranaki a winner. Guess their rules don't include OT

2-way or 3-way?

easysaid · 10-20-12, 01:16 AM

Had them in 2-way, so pissed if they call it a loss.

RLF · 10-20-12, 01:19 AM

The straight or line?

Push at worst but can't see how it isn't graded a winner.

MexicanStallion · 10-20-12, 01:24 AM

I had Canterbury in a parlay as well and they counted it as push at 5Dimes.

benandjerry · 10-20-12, 01:57 AM

Skimmed through b365 rules real quickly, seems that most plays doesnt include extra time (unless otherwise stated I think they said), and apparently all 2-way handicaps would be counted a push if game finished tied. I think most books count only regular time, but not sure what is the norm when it comes to push on tied games.

Mase of Base · 10-20-12, 02:13 AM

Wow terrible call to award that Auckland try, huge error.

yeah, along with Wellington's sloppiness might screw this cover...

davopnz · 10-20-12, 02:42 AM

auckland beat up wellington again

Shifty107 · 10-20-12, 02:53 AM

Bet365 graded my over 58 a winner. I think they grade finals rugby games to include overtime

they have a special thing for rugby called extra time, extra chance under promotions

Was that for the Canterbury game?
