New Zealand -30 v Italy

The All Blacks should be far too strong

Australia v France +12.5

I think France will be competitive

South Africa v British Lions +12.5

Lions gave South Africa a bit of a fright - game 1
Lions have made 5 changes since - hopefully for the better

Penrith v Manly -32.5

Cellar dweller V Competition leader

Eastwood V Eastern Suburbs

Going for the home ground advantage in what should be a close tussle

Sydney University V Parramatta +37

Sydney University will win but hopefully not a complete landslide

Hi Sands will you explain the 12.5 please.
Yeah me too, I hope the lions will do better, I lost a couple of quid on the first test. Which I made up on the Storm game, I'll be backing the Storm again tomorrow.
Cheers,
Mike.

Hi Mike
I've taken the lions with 12.5 points start

Morning Sands,
Thats what I thought, but how do you get half a point in rugby?
I haven't watched the game yet, I'll do that this afternoon with a couple of quiet cold ones.

All Blacks only won 27-6
Their overall game not really up to standard
5 All Blacks made their Test debuts
Perhaps a factor
