Rugby; H-Cup & Challenge Cup semi finals

[Snodser]

Bath v Sale;

fairly sure bath can take this so......................

Bath -3 10/11 5 pts & win 8/13 10pts boyle sports

[Snodser]

Right Munster are 2/5 for the win.

( & they will win on the basis of the irrefutable scientific data...... ie: I have them down to win the whole thing )


Seriously, with a view to getting a few pence for the meter I'm toying with a + h/cap for Sarries.

Any thoughts ............................... anyone anyone ?.

[redroar]

OK if we're working off the basis that munster will win where do you see sarries getting the points from?

Jackson is a fine kicker but munsters discipline in heineken cup this season has been excellent so not too many penalty opportunities there.

Sarries score a try? Not in the forwards from structured play anyway. The backline while a decent defense unit have hardly set the world on fire with their creativity this year.

Are sarries a better home team then gloucester?

I can see sarries been shut out of the game completely.

Munster -8 @ 10/11 7pts

yep. Munster for me. Sarries do have good pace through Leonelli and Houghton, so a long range score isn't impossible. They also have plenty of power in the cement mixers with the likes of Johnson and Visagie, so short range tries aren't out of the question either.

Munster have too much class though

Munster -7
London Irish +7
Worcester -3
Bath -3

Moment of Madness:

Bath / Munster / Worcs / Ospreys

15 = 24.8 return ( +9.8)

9.8(ERC)+1.4 (T14) = +11.2, Bit of a cushion for the WE
