Yeh Edinburgh and Gloucester which paid out $1.65 🥳

I was thinking of putting something down on both Toulouse and Leinster, but didn't end up doing so. Ah well.

The BBC World service spent the entire weekend going on about "the world game" in France for the Olympics (no mention of Rugby in their broadcasts)... I'm guessing the Olympics are fast descending on us.

(And I'm glad I didn't put any wagers on the ladies at the Australian Open - apart from Coco Gough I think every pic I would have made have all been tumbled out).

Thats another parlay win with a massive $5 bet @ 1.6.

All 5 teams did the business, Glasgow Warriors,
 Racing 92, Leinster, Saracens, Toulouse.

If I had Proceeded with the original 4 picks I was thinking of before seeing the odds
it would have been a lost bet. Saracens beat Lyon 39-24 and Bayonne beat Exeter 40-17

How did you get on Timelord? did you do a favourites parlay?

ATM the fees dont seem as high as they were! I just moved $79 with a cost of $6.87

That's about nine percent!!! (my eyes are watering) I'd *consider* a fee that high if I was transferring a win of ten thousand dollars in a hurry either out of an exchange before the replay showed the ball was out of play *or* if I were wanting to put some money down fast after the opposition's key players all fell down with gastro with twenty minutes left to play and were trailing by at least as many points...



Well thats about a 60% discount on where it was about a week ago , so im happy with it.

My experience of the Parlays is not to add too many bets, so the reward isnt as great but
also the chances of a result going the wrong way is less . . . thats how I see it. Last
weekends parlay had 5 bets, this weekend I plan to do another but havent decided who
to add.

Quick peek at the matches without odds I am aiming for:

Lyon
Leinster
Stormers
Exeter

But as I said I cant see the odds yet

In the European Challenge Cup I'm going with Gloucester ($1.24) and  Edinburgh ($1.30) but something in the back of my head says the Scarlets on $3.30 might pull off a minor miracle...

Good luck with your picks - I see the former Irish coach Smiths has taken the challenge and agreed to coach the Australian team.

IMO its a bit dodgy backing the Scarlets over Edinburgh.

I have 5 picks in the pot for the weekend:

Glasgow Warriors to beat Toulon
Racing 92 to beat Cardiff
Leinster to beat Leicester
Saracens to beat Lyon
Toulouse to Bath

Total odds 1.6



Yes I heard today Joe Schmidt today, great coach, he was 9 years in Ireland with Leinster
and Ireland and was fairly successful.

Quote
He was then head coach of Ireland from 2013 to 2019. In six years under his leadership,
Ireland won three Six Nations Championships, including a Grand Slam in 2018. Ireland
were ranked number 1 in the World Rugby Rankings for the first time in their history
in 2019, and recorded their first-ever wins over New Zealand.

I'm only doing $1 parlays but can't seem to win on the favourites (one or more invariably fall by the wayside).

I'll have a look at the European games for this weekend and make some picks.




Are you having issues shifting funds with the glut of transaction fees on the block chain at the moment?  It must be eating into some online crypto gaming websites bottom dollars. 🤔

It was 'winner all right' La Rochelle romped home with a score of 45-12. I had a $5 bet on
that parlay, I think thats the first in about 8 months which I did and it worked.



An update on the other tournaments:

United Rugby Championship - resumes 16th of February

English Premiership - Round 12 of 18 starts 26th January

Top14 - Round 13 of 26 resumes on the 26th of January.

So the only Rugby this coming weekend is Round 4 of the European Champions Cup and
the European Challenge cup which I'm not following.

I've just arrived home.  I think there's still a couple of late matches to be played.  Hope you do well.

remarkably enough the bets on my parlay all won, thats Northampton, Exeter Saints, Lyon
and The Stormers. I am waiting for todays match La Rochelle v Leicester, fingers crossed.

European Rugby Champions Cup is back on this weekend starting today with:

Northampton v Bayonne - Northampton are topping that Pool 3 so they are unbackable
@ 1.06 that could be one to go into a favourites parlay.

Exeter Chiefs v Glasgow Warriors - Exeter are healthy favourites @ 1.35, another one for the parlay

Lyon v Connacht - @ 1.25 Lyon are home favourites but Connacht are libel for anything,
anyway lets add Lyon

Stormers v Sale Sharks - Have to go with the Stormers @ 1.16 at home

La Rochelle v Leicester Tigers @ 1.06 - hopefully the French side have their house in order.

total odds there of 2.28

Opps - my bad.

This weekend, I'm going with Newcastle over Benetton then the Ospreys over Perpignan.  While over in the France Pro D2  Aix-en-Provence ($1.04) Vs Dax $9.00) and Brive ($1.06) Vs Rouen ($8) seems to be the most skewered bets - I might just do all the favourites again in a parlay and see how I go.

The English Premiership Rugby wont be finalised until the middle of May. There wont be any
matches in February.

In the European Rugby Championship the group stages end at the end of January so still
a bit to go there still and then its onto the finals stage.

The Rounds of 16 take place in April
Semi finals at the start if May
and the Final at the end of May.

Following on from the last matches of the weekend...

Montpelier the favourites and bottom of the table in the French Top14 did actually beat
Toulon 27-17, to me it doesnt add up?

Over in the English Premiership Bath did beat Gloucester so I ended up close to 50/50, I
might have been better off sticking with the favourites even though some outsider odds are
very appealing


I actually got a wager down on Montpelier about an hour before the game started.  Lost on the sharks, but won on Bath and Leicester in the later games over the weekend.  Grin

The Saracens are favourites to win the cup at the end of the month on $2.50 while Sale $5 and Leicester $7 follow in second and third favourites.

Likewise Leinster $2.85, Toulouse $4.50 and La Rochelle $6 round out the top three in the Euro Champion's Cup to be decided this weekend.

50/50 for sure, A win and a loss for the favourites yesterday, Exeter losing and Leicester winning.

I think Bath are safe today, they are 5th on the table but Gloucester are second from the bottom.



I didnt do any bets on the French Top14 yesterday. Only 1 match today, Montpellier v Toulon,
odds are with Montpellier @ 1.58 v 2.55. Interestingly Montpellier are at the bottom of the table
after playing 11 matches, Toulon are 5th with +109 points difference, have to go with Toulon
regardless of popularity.

Definitely 50/50 at the moment with win/loss/win/loss etc seeming to be the order of the day. There's just the Bath game to play, so it's anyone's guess as to what the outcome is going to be. 🤔

Kick off is just around the corner. I'm going with all the favorites again :

Harlequin's, Sale, Exeter.

Leicester, Bath and the Sharks.

Good luck with your bets.

Yesterdays English Premiership was 50/50

Bristol beat Sale 14 - 22
and Harlequins beat Newcastle 4 - 24

Todays games

Exeter v Northampton - 1.3 v 3.85 thats about right, Exeter are top 3 ATM
Leicester v Saracens - 1.6 - 2.46 thats going to be a close one, this could go either way
they are 6 and 7 on the table - ill hold

and tomorrow you are right with Bath I think against Gloucester - 1.22 - 4.4
