Well the championship is now here and have had a pretty good time of it over the past few seasons so why not give it another go and see if can not make up for the poor super 15 season i had. There tends to be a lot of value in some games with odds makers over valuing the super franchise name sake teams.
Not to mention my beloved Mooloo's have the Shield, so how good is life right now for the might RED BLACK and YELLOW's.
Picks:
Counties +6.5 5 units @ $1.90
Last season they were one of the absolute form teams of the Championship and now they get their chance to play a long side the big boys. For much of last year they were under valued and yet again i believe we have that situation. They have 5 players part of the Chiefs Super rugby team and that experience can not be bought. Wellington are down a ton of players through being unavailable with the All Blacks and that could really hamper their season. Counties are missing a couple also through injury, but really at home getting some good value, can not look past Counties in this one to open the season.
Counties Su 3 units @ $3.00
They got up last year in the capital, so why can they not do it all over again at home this time. I thought this game would have been a lot closer in terms of the money line, so for me i am getting positive value, so why not have a crack.

Yes i did have a little look at the total and decided to lay off. Not to sure on the weather tonight as of yet. Very over cast in Auckland today. I live about 15 mins up the road from Growers Stadium in Pukekohe.
I do like the Over as ITM Cup tends to be high scoring with little focus on D, but may give it a week and see how it all pans out before start playing totals.
Like the over though as from memory the counties games tended to be very high scoring with them tending to throw the ball around a lot and enjoy their footy.
Hope that helps bud

Well that was not the start to the new season that i had hoped for, but guess these things happen. Counties just did not show up last night and it was really hard to watch.
Well now to get straight back on the horse and see if cant turn around that record.
Still waiting on some lines to come out. SO many changes in both teams from last year through injury and personal leaving. Could make for an interesting game.
The Naki have shown good pre season form so getting 11 points could be worth a good shot.

Have had a little look over the game and going with one play for the game tonight.
Pick:
Taranaki +11.5 5 units @ $1.90
Both teams have had a lot of changes from the ones the fielded last year and for that reason they may struggle early on for consistency. The naki have showed some good pre season form and for that reason i give them the nod tonight with the points in a game that should be one hell of a forwards battle.
