Great minds think alike. I've also put a small wager on the Panthers for tonight's game.  If the Broncos are going to falter it's right about now.




I saw the first half of tonight's game on TV - very tough and thrilling, nevertheless the Panthers led at half time and Nathan Cleary kicked a one point field goal at full time to win 15 - 4 😁

The first round 12 game in NRL Australia is on today. The second placed Broncos face the
third placed Panthers in a few hours.

Really hard to bet on this one. The Broncos who in the last few seasons would be seen in the
bottom half of the ladder at this stage are massive underdogs at 3.3 while the Panthers
who have had a mixed bag of results so far are 1.37. I think I will try a $1 bet on the outsiders
with the hopes they can make the day really difficult for the Panthers and beat them.

United Rugby Championship

The two semi finals have come and gone with one predictable win and one shock win!

As most expected the DHL Stormers won their semi against the visiting Connacht 43-25.
I have given Connacht a half chance of winning but my $1 bet didnt materialise.

Second semi final on Saturday brought the upset, home side Leinster were looking to setup
a second final and win the double with the Heineken Champions Cup but the visiting Munster
were able to stay with them and win with a 77th minute drop goal. Leinster had prioritised the
Heineken Cup by resting some key players for the coming final on Saturday.

Grand Final

Yea massive win by the Panthers 48 - 4, I dont get it though, they win from the Warriors
last week in a low scoring game and the week before they they get beaten by the Wests Tigers,
real mixed bag of performances but they are second on the ladder all the same.

The Roosters to only score once, an unconverted try is really abysmal. TBH its a mixed
bag of performances by nearly all except for the Broncos.

It will be interesting to see how they go with their next 3 games against top 8 sides,
Panthers, Warriors and Sharks!

This is what's know as taking a bet each way:

I'm getting in early with bets on the "underdogs of round eleven"

Penrith Panthers - Sydney Roosters 12 May 2023 20:00 Money Line Sydney Roosters @ 2.46 Taken Amount: 0.05 mBTC Possible Payout: 0.123 mBTC

I'm going with the Panthers for tonight's game but the two teams are evenly matched, so the Rooster's could well keep the faltering Panthers from winning. The Panthers need this morale booster win.

Canterbury Bulldogs - New Zealand Warriors 12 May 2023 18:00 Money Line New Zealand Warriors @ 1.68 Taken Amount: 0.05 mBTC Possible Payout: 0.084 mBTC

Kick off is in a few minutes.  The money is on the Panthers, however, my money from last week is on the Roosters.  I guess we'll find out in a couple of hours who is right.

In the earlier game, Auckland won comfortably 24 - 12 against the lackluster Bulldogs.




Now Nathan Cleary knows how to kick a ball:



It isn't looking to good for the Roosters:

Rabbitohs for the title this year? yea possibly, they seem to be the strongest of last years
finalists, at this stage with almost half of the regular season played to date.
Looking at the ladder there seems to be a pattern emerging, last years top 8 seem
to be slowly floating back into that half, apart from the Eels and Cowboys that is.



Union URC

Semi Final weekend and both games are on tomorrow.

My home team Connacht play away to the Stormers and are big underdogs. After their
terrible start to the season I havent really backed them much. Their last semi final
appearance was 2016, a game I was at against the Glasgow Warriors and being
underdogs then they won and went on to take the title that year.

I'm trying to find out the team sheets for tomorrow, if Connacht have a full first team
squad with the international players I will back them @ 5.8

The Star Casino(s) Group are the major sponsor of the Broncos with a Casino in both Brisbane and on the Gold Coast as well as Sydney. The sports bar on the Gold Coast had the game on the main screen yet the numbers watching weren't very large.  All high tables were full, but there wasn't anyone standing watching the game which I've seen in the past.

As to the game, the Storm have won the previous thirteen games on home soil against the Broncos so they had the statistical advantage and backed it up with a tough nearly sixty minutes of game play keeping the score to ten points a side.  From the start the Storm's attack and defence edged out compared to the Broncos having a no try early on while both teams kicker missed critical conversions.

The Broncos fell to ten points behind then it became a matter of stalling with multiple scuffles burning down the final ten minutes.

If the Tigers win this weekend then their price will drop considerably for next week-ends game against the Rabbitohs (who are firming as a solid top four finishers this year)

I'm going with the Panthers for tonight's game but the two teams are evenly matched, so the Rooster's could well keep the faltering Panthers from winning. The Panthers need this morale booster win.

Canterbury Bulldogs - New Zealand Warriors 12 May 2023 18:00 Money Line New Zealand Warriors @ 1.68 Taken Amount: 0.05 mBTC Possible Payout: 0.084 mBTC

At the start of round eleven, for the first time the Rabbitohs are firm favourites to win with the most money being placed on them at TAB.com.au

Ouch, Broncos falter and the Storm is rising!

Currently 5 teams with 5 wins each and both the Panthers and the Roosters are in that group.
I really dont know which way to bet on this one, the Panthers have let me and a lot of
others down a lot this season so far. I'll probably go with the Panthers, their points for and
against are better.

Other considerations are Eels who are underdogs against the Raiders, they are $2.25.

After that they are difficult draws.

I'm just out and about, but I'm going to put some bets down for those games

In the NRL tonight's game between the Melbourne Storm and Brisbane Broncos should be a fairly close point scoring game. The pundants are favouring Melbourne, however, I'm going with the Broncos on $2.20

Tomorrow night's early game sees the Bulldogs and Warriors prices near identical and I'm going with the Warriors in $1.85 (Bulldogs are $1.95 so there's not much in it)

The later game tomorrow between the Panthers in $1.45 starring down the Sydney Roosters who are far less favoured on $2.65 (I'm going with the Panthers this round)

Results from the weekends quarter finals sees 3 irish teams and one South African
progress to the semi's, goes to show the strength of the Irish sides following on from
the great Six Nations Campaign.

I think Connacht have the tougher draw, they are away to the Stormers and defending
champions in South Africa.

Leinster and Munster at least are playing at home.

I fancy a Leinster v Stormers final but would love if it was Connacht v Munster.

I think the Eels are now in a rut whereas the Titans had a slump. This year has had many surprises with the Dolphins shaking things up.

I'm not surprised the Dolphins won. (Now six wins and four losses) the Broncos are eight and two with a long way to go before September.

The Tigers likewise had a morale booster with their win last week against the Grand finalist Panthers and now this week's win. Very reminiscent of last year they won two in a row after six or seven losses.

The dragons are now 2501:1 to win the minor premiership compared to the Tigers 1000:1

Rugby League NRL Australia

Last 3 games of Round 10 played today with IMO 3 unlikely winners.

Wests Tigers 18 - 16 Dragons (ok so they are both bottom of the ladder)

Roosters 6 - 20 Cowboys (really fancied the Roosters for this draw and for
the Cowboys to be mediocre this round, thats my bet gone.)

Titans 26 - 24 (Titans continue their hold on the top half of the ladder, I was going
to go with the Eels thinking they have to start making a move to the top half...
not this round.)

Thanks for the link Timelord, I will check that out over the weekend!



NRL

I have to say the Broncos are a different team to last year, thats a great win against
another top team.



Union - URC

Big big win this evening by the underdogs Connacht playing away to Ulster, the #2 team
on the table. I actually didnt get my bet placed, when I listened to some Rugby
pundits today they all fancied Ulster but that Connacht would run them close,
so I had decided to go with Connacht but the game was t listed 🤷

I'm not looking that far ahead in the NRL.

I have 3 bets on this round, all favourites, and they better start winning...and keep winning!

Broncos to beat the Sea Eagles (thats playing now)
Panthers to beat the Warriors (that should be safe, but yea look at the previous rounds???)
Sharks to beat the Dolphins

I might do the Roosters to beat the Cowboys who have been shocking so far, thats
for Sunday.

It's the so called "Magic Round" - Round ten of the 2023 NRL Season kicks off in Brisbane tonight with all eight games being played at Lang Park here in Brisbane.

The Wests Tigers are even with the Dragons at $1.88 each (a far cry from last week when they paid out nearly $7)  Saint George are languishing near the bottom of the ladder, so I'm going with the Tigers who are riding high after their first win last week.

The only two "upsets" will be if the Warriors and Dolphins win their matches.  I feel confident they will.

I wasn't paying attention when I put a small wager on England to win last weekend. They did and it was a Rugby League game too! (Plus it was by 30+ points!)

All for $1.90 odds. I don't usually bet on spreads - they're very unpredictable like parlays - one loss and the whole lot goes up in smoke.

Hopefully Sunday I'll be able to play catch up with the various games that are on? 🤔

Was that the 64-0 win over France in the mid season internationals? That is some
hammering. Is France that bad and are England that good? I dont know anything
about international Rugby League.



Union United Rugby Championship.

The Quarter Finals get under was on Friday with two Irish teams facing off Ulster
v Connacht. Tis is a home game for Ulster and they are big favourites for this at 1.22
against Connacht 4.1. I would love to see Connacht win this but I think its a big ask.

The other quarter finals are:

Stormers v Bulls
Leinster v Sharks
Warriors v Munster

Leinster are unbackable at 1.07.
I think I'll bet on Ulster, Stormers and Munster.

European Champions Cup Rugby (Heineken Cup)

Second semi final went with the game favourites La Rochelle, they beat Exeter
Chiefs 47-28 to set up a replay of 2022 final with Leinster.

That final went the way of the French side, 21-24. That final was played in France, this
the final will take place in Ireland, this year should be Leinsters. I have them to win
this title.

The West's Tigers won 12 - 8 AND I MISSED IT!

OMG - what a messed up season this has proven to be this year! My two bets are
totally lost, Titans beating the Sea Eagles and Wests Tigers beating the Panthers.

Looking at the ladder and looking at the season so far its really open, no one team are
absolutely definitively booking their place in the finals, different to last year really.



Union Heineken Cup

First semi final took place today and as I suspected and hoped and backed Leinster
overcame Toulouse 44-21. There was talk before the game that it could have been closer
due to some key players for Leinster out with injury. This result shows the depth of talent in
the squad.
