Macaw gone for the Crusaders, huge loss imo, gonna be tough for the Crusaders missing both Macaw and Carter. Highlanders have drifted out to $2.20 in betting markets. Still no idea why, their starting line up looks good apart from missing Brown. Highlanders is still the bet of the round. I might also go a few quiet $ on Force +7.5.

Good start from the Highlanders but they were drawing dead in the second half. Looks like the bookies have been spot on with the highish odds on the Highlanders this week and the Reds last week (loss v Canes)

I only caught the last 20 mins of the 1st game. Highlanders were playing pretty badly compared to how they have played earlier this season. Looks more as though they lost it rather than the Chiefs winning it.

It seemed like a bizarre line the bookies had before the game having the Chiefs as favorites. The next time the bookies come up with another seemingly bizarre line I might just go with the bookies choice on it haha.

I can understand the Waratahs inducing a lot of tilt. They were pretty bad, and then booting it out at the end instead of taking a shot, it saved my Saturday night from being all bad, but I would imagine you being close to launching something at the TV.

Winning nationality - New Zealand at $1.60 looks a near lock. Crusaders look very tough to beat from here out, and I think the only team capable of beating them is the Blues.

TAB has Hurricanes at 1.87, higher than others this weekend. I'm not sure about this game.. I was leaning Canes but am worried that the Highlanders forwards will have their way with them at the breakdown.

What I really like this week is Stormers to beat the Chiefs. The Chiefs backs finally got to cut loose last weekend vs the Highlanders, but they wont have that luxury vs a very good Stormers defence. Also I think there's a big chance of the Stormers forwards having total domination, like the Bulls enjoyed against the Chiefs recently. It's just not a good matchup for the Chiefs, who would prefer to play a fast, expansive game with their backs, but will instead run in to a Stormers team that will just grind them down. Peter Grant is also back for the Stormers

I'm with you on the Stormers 100%. Very important game for them. I think their strong forward pack and good defense will be far too much for the Chiefs.

I quite like the Highlanders myself. Canes have Nonu and Wepu back which is obv a big boost for them, but I think the Highlanders will be able to grind out another close home win. Best value is Highlanders 1-12 imo, it will be close either way.

I was loving the Blues before I saw Kaino isn't playing which is a huge loss, Toeava is out for a while too, I still think the blues _3 and Blues to win outright offer value.

Longshot of the week... Multi with Highlanders 1-12, Blues to win, Stormers to win, Crusaders 1-12 paying $32.

Don't like Crusaders 1-12, especially as the last leg of the multi. Should be a LOT of points in this game, which means more chance of a blowout
