It’s a big round of Super Rugby this weekend and punters have not been shy.
Please see below the CrownBet prices for each match and some commentary around the betting.
Head to Head Line
Chiefs $1.42 (out from $1.28) 1.92 (-5.5) (in from -8.5)
Bulls $2.95 (in from $3.65) 1.92 (+5.5)
At the start of the week we opened the Chiefs at $1.28 and 8.5 point favourites – since then the Chiefs have named a side with a host of injury-forced changes. The betting is now $1.42 Chiefs vs $2.95 Bulls with the line into 5.5 points. One punter has bet $1600 on the Bulls at the line (–8.5).
Head to Head Line
Reds $1.80 (in from $1.85) 1.92 (-1.5) (out from -1.0)
Sharks $2.05 (out from $1.95) 1.92 (+1.5)
Not much action here to date – the Reds opened $1.85 and are now into $1.80. There has been no bets of significance thus far, indicating punters are not yet prepared to trust the home side despite a convincing win last week.
Head to Head Line
Blues $3.25 (out from $2.75) 1.92 (+7.0)
Hurricanes $1.36 (in from $1.45) 1.92 (-7.0) (out from -5.5)
Money for the top of the table Hurricanes has seen the favourites backed from $1.45 into $1.36. The Blues have received no support despite their last-start triumph against the Bulls.
Head to Head Line
Waratahs $1.70 (out from $1.65) 1.92 (-2.5) (in from -3.0)
Crusaders $2.20 (in from $2.25) 1.92 (+2.5)
There has been minimal action in this one and we are not expecting much until game day. The Tahs are out from $1.65 to $1.70, with the Crusaders in from $2.25 to $2.20.
Head to Head Line
Western Force $2.65 (steady) 1.92 (+5.0) (steady)
Highlanders $1.50 (steady) 1.92 (-5.0)
There has been very little movement in the market all week, but despite this the punters are clearly in favour of the Highlanders. One punter has had $1000 on the Highlanders at the line and another has had $1200 on the Highlanders H2H.
Head to Head Line
Cheetahs $2.25 (in from $2.30) 1.92 (+3.0)
Lions $1.67 (out from $1.60) 1.92 (-3.0) (out from -2.0)
Lions have drifted slightly since opening at $1.60, they are out to $1.67. The Cheetahs have made four changes to the squad that hosted a one point loss last week. No significant betting action as yet.
Head to Head Line
Stormers $1.21 (steady) 1.92 (-10.5) (out from -10.0)
Rebels $4.60 (steady) 1.92 (+10.5)
The line has moved half a point to 10.5, but we won’t see much money here until late Saturday night.
