BRUMBIES V LIONS BET
Posted 08 July 23h45
The handicap appears to have stabilised at Lions -32.5 but my eye is drawn to the points line of 62.5. It looks like conditions will be ok and I think we will get points with the Brumbies contributing a few as well.
BET: 3 units over 62.5 points at 10/11 at Sportingbet

There is still some -28.5 on offer at WSB but it won't last as I see -32.5 at Betxchange and Pokerbet, points is stable at 62.5

BRUMBIES V B&I LIONS PREVIEW AND EARLY BETTING
Posted 07 July 08h33
The Lions continued their unbeaten run with a hard fought 21-10 win over the Waratahs in Sydney on Saturday. They were a well backed 39.5 point favourite with the bookmakers and having beaten the Force by 47 points and the Reds by 40, it was their least impressive hit out to date.
The Brumbies qualified for the playoffs in the recently completed Super Rugby Pacific season and they beat the Hurricanes 35-28 in Canberra to book a semi-final spot where they lost 37-17 to the Chiefs in Hamilton.
