Its a pity that The Panthers are facing Storm next week, I have both backed to win the title and if they were both in the final I would be very very happy!

In the other "semi final" next weekend its Rabbitohs v Sea Eagles, I think the outright winner will come from the other semi!

I'm expecting the Sea Eagles will move to the Grand final as their game play has come together over the last six weeks whereas the Rabbitohs have had some unforced errors and might loose their nerve.

The Storm Vs Panthers game is going to be close.I'm hoping the Panthers win (that's where my money is for that game - (last time I looked) you can still get 5.0 for the Panthers to win the series)

Rugby Union

Both the Australians and New Zealander's had convincing wins in their games over the weekend:

I managed to catch the last twenty minutes of the League game on the radio - It was definately a tough match and could have gone either way. Fortunately, I had money on the Panthers and the Australians to win their respective games.

The Eels were definitely in with a chance and the commentators were ready to call it for the Eels until about 90 seconds before ful time when the Eels player dropped the bal and enabled the Panthers to take possession and hold on to it for the last minute.

Next week see the Storm and Panthers face-off in a replay (a week early) of their Grand Final match from last year where the Storm won.

Well the local media got it right, I on the other hand believed what Sportsbet were
showing me regarding odds. Australia did great to take a second win, here is a
headline

https://www.breakingnews.ie/sport/update-3-rugby-wallabies-hand-springboks-another-reality-check-with-30-17-win-1186185.html

and by doing so have toppled SA from the their #1 world ranking.

Australia are still in 3rd spot on the table with 9 points behind SA on 10 and NZ on 20.

League

That was a tough battle between The Eels and Panthers and a very low scoring game,
I too had The Panthers to win which was good because I also had The Roosters and
South Africa too. Final score 8 - 6.

Rugby Union (let's not talk about the Roosters being roasted over in league)

The Aussie's are favoured by the local media to win over South Africa tonight at Lang Park.

Rugby League

My money is on the Panthers winning tonight, but the Eels may just have a boil over like last night's game.

Next week, the Rabbitohs face-off against the Sea Eagles (I'm leaning towards the Sea Eagles for that game) while The Storm will face off against whoever wins tonight.

OMG, we were waaay too optimistic, it was a slaughter house today, Roosters only
scoring 6 points and the Sea Eagles running riot with 42 points.

even with full strength against a weakened team it just goes to show that squad
depth is important, replacements need to be really close to 1st choice players.

Union

Australia v South Africa again this weekend in the Rugby Championship, after their
hammering last weekend its interesting to see SA favourites again, I have
them to win (this time)

Oh F-it, I see their odds are gone out to 4.10, stranger things have been known to
happen, lets hope this game is one of those stranger things....

I try and follow this at work, obviously we want the Roosters to do the business
but if its not going well I might opt for a cash out.

Both the Roosters and Eels are expected to crash out of the 2021 season this weekend if the betting is anything to go by:

I'm sticking with the Roosters tonight and the Panthers tomorrow night which will liven up the semi finals next weekend.

Just 2:30:00 on the clock before kick off in Mackay.

(There's a Union game on at Lang Park this weekend too Wink

The local media are calling tonight's clash between the Sea Eagles and Roosters given the Sea Eagles will be fielding a full strength team while the Roosters will have an understrength team with one player suspended for two games plus other players who have missed half the seasons games.

I can't put money on New Zealand even if I wanted to - nitrogensports.eu has a great big padlock on their odds. I can get nearly 13:1 for the other side, but all the pundants agree New Zealand is the team to beat (and are unbackable at this point in time)

Panthers are favourites obviously to beat The Eels at 1.22, lets hope they got a right
wake up call last week after been beaten by The Rabbitohs.

I'm going with The Roosters also, they are a very good price ATM probably because
of that news of Sam Berryl - 3.65, hopefully they too can do the job.

Union

Australia v New Zealand already met Timelord, Week 1 and 2 with a lot of trouncing!

Week 1 - New Zealand 57 - 22 Australia
Week 2 - Australia 21 - 38 New Zealand

For this weeks round I'm going with South Africa again, and there is no point in backing
NZ, they are 1.01

I've just heard Rooster's Sam Berryl is out for this week's game due to his dangerous high tackle in last week's game.

I've put money on both the Roosters and Panthers, but feel the Sea Eagles are going to put up a fight (as will the Eels, but am not sure their late season surge will be enough given the Panthers scare loss last weekend)

Rugby Union.

I expect South Africa and New Zealand to make mince meat of Australia and Argentina respectively, but would like to see the Aussies trounce the Kiwi's whenever they meet-up next.

Australia won. Argentina didn't. When I get home tomorrow I'll check out which fixtures are coming up. Nitrogensports.eu hasn't been showing many Union games, just the internationals (and their Olympics coverage was patchy to say the least)

Yea saw that, I had South Africa backed, the world champions and world #1.
After the Bledisloe Cup been beaten 3-0 I thought they would be there for the taking.

Next games are on the 18th, Australia v South Africa again and Argentina v New Zealand again

Ah right, well im happy The Panthers are still in. Big game coming up against The Eels,
one they should win....

Storm and Rabbitohs will have both one les game to play and have a rest week, will
that help or hinder them? at this stage in the tournament I would say help.

@Timelord2067 I have SA to win this one.

That's OK, I've done a tiny Parlay for Australia & Argentina to win. (Probably won't happen though).

Three of my four bets in the last seven days have come up:

Still cant believe it though, Panthers who have been oretty much rock solid through
the season are finished.

Eels are up ATM 16-10, lets see how this plays out, but I have a feeling The Eels have
found a bit of form again...

I did hear the Eels were wanting to land in fourth place in the regular season of the series - perhaps their strategy worked regardless of who they came up against?

With the Rabbitohs having won over the Panthers, I'm going to say they will win over the Eels in week two but loose to the Storm in week three. As I said a couple of days ago: In the above scenario, I'm going to call the Storm over the Knights in the Grand Final. The Knights making it to the Grand Final is dependent on them winning their game this week.

Quote from: aoluain on September 11, 2021, 06:06:19 PM

So...

so far in the first weekend of the finals we have had the inevitable [Storm big win over The Eagles],
the just about [Roosters 1 point win over Titans] and the unpredictable [Panthers losing to the Rabbitohs]

The Eels are favourite to beat The Knights, we are thinking The Knights will do a job in them.

The Roosters game could have gone either way for much of the game, but the Titans had some unnecessary errors that ultimately caused them the match. The Panthers could have won with some decisions not going their way. But, the Rabbitohs have had some solid wins this year and last night was one of them.

As I show above, I think the Knights will end up at the grand-final. Like the Rabbitohs, they could pull off an upset win both tonight and in a couple of weeks time.

Yes indeed the Storm continue to dominate with their solid win over the Manly Sea Eagles 40 - 12 tonight on the Sunshine Coast.

Next up will be the Roosters who I expect will show the Titans the door to the locker room by half time and then the Panthers will also show the Rabbitohs out the side door before halftime.

Quote

erm how did you manage to put all the bets on and still make a profit if one wins?

If the shortest price is five to one I only bet on three or four so I'm ahead. I'll also do a small wager on four or five teams, then towards the end of the season just bump one or two so it evens out.
