Re: Rugby Uion - French Top 14 - 5th Round

Sport	Rugby Union
Event	Biarritz - Stade Francais
Selection	Under 51.5
Strength	9/10
Date	04/09/2010
Bookmaker/Price	Pinnacle Sports @ 1.80
Reasoning	Early bet i agree but clearly value IMO.Still a big opposition of this top14 who could easly turn on underscoring scenario for many reason. Biarritz is clearly in bad situation in this top14.With only 1 win in 4 match play last finalist of H Cup must react tonight with a win vs Stade Francais who are actually with 140 point score in 4 match the best offence of this top14.A win of Biarritz must pass by a strng match defencivly and Biarritz is able to make this kiond of match and close the game when is necesser. Concerning Stade Francais even if like i say score lot of point conceded lot of one too (106 in 4 match).Last match vs Castres at home show Stade francais limit in defence : lead 40-17 at 50th min for finally win 40-34 with a last min vide referee try for Castres). See both team approch this match defensivly and pinnacle is only book at the moment to open under/over bet expected it around 42.5 and think will be suprise when other book will open it

Re: Rugby Uion - French Top 14 - 5th Round

Sport	Rugby Union
Event	Clermont - Montpellier
Selection	Clermont -9.5
Strength	9/10
Date	04/09/2010
Bookmaker/Price	Pinnacle Sports @ 1.84
Reasoning	After a loose without defencive bonus point at Racing Metro Wednsday Clermont come back at home to play a team in great form at this start of season Montpellier. After winning at Perpignan and vs Toulouse ,Montpellier will try to keep this seri alive at last year Champion Clermont.But clearly think that will not happen ... Montpellier play 2 hard & strong match in 6 day vs big team of this top14 :Perpignan & Toulouse .Actually 3rd of top14 with 3win and 1 loose ,objective for start of season is more than they expected and we could see a large turnover to this game at Clermont.Montpellier use almost same group for last two match: player are tired and rotation with some young player could start at Clermont tomorrow. Concerning Clermont prepare this game since 1 week,accepted to make a large turnover at Racing : Nalga,Malzieu &Bonnaire was not in group ;James, Parra,Ledesma,Rougerie & Vermulen on bench (enter in 2nd half). Think Clermont will approach this game seriously refuse to underestimate this team of Montpellier specially after their start of season and in this kind of match Clermont is irresistible at home show what happen vs Birve and expect a same scenario here .A win by +15 is expected IMO Gl

Sport	Rugby Union
Event	Bourgoin - Bayonne
Selection	Bourgoin by 1-10
Strength	7/10
Date	04/09/2010
Bookmaker/Price	Ladbrokes @ 3.00
Reasoning	After take his first win in top14 Wednsday vs Agen at home Bourgoin will try to make the same vs Bayonne this sunday. Close match like each time Bourgoin play at home is expected once again.Manage to make a great 70 min match vs Clermont where leading by 6 and finally conceded 3 try in last min . Bayonne manage to win by 1 vs Brive Wednsday and actually 2nd of top14 will want to make a possitive result too but home advantage will make a big difference IMO that's why bookie place Bourgoin little favorit and that's why a close win is most probable result .
