    I'm going for under 42.5.

    Think it will be a tight game.

    As usual I went my own way, ignored some of the great suggestions in this thread and instead put the evil eye on Mike Phillips to score a try - result, he had one of his poorest performances in ages. Lions more than 11.5 points in the 1st half meant that I'm only 50% down on the start of play. The remains of this weekend's stake has gone on the Springboks more than 15.5 in the 1st half against Samoa. :D

    32-9 at the break and I'm in profit at last but my finger nails are in tatters. 5/6 were the odds so it wasn't a great bet but what the hell. Next week I'm going to go back over this thread carefully before placing any bets. :D

    I presume you mean +6? Or else you're mad....the spread will be about 3 or 4 points, Lions favourites I would think!

    Yeah your right, my bad, should have been +6

    They were +3 today, so I can see then being plus six next week with lions returning and aussies losing out injury wise

    Loads of handy little bets that I'm looking at the moment.

    Lions penalty to be first score of the match @ 2.60
    First try to be converted @ 1.33
    Leigh Halfpenny to covert 100% placed kicks @ 1.83.
    Under 4.5 tries to be scored @ 1.46
    Folau to score a try @ 3.60
    Croft to score a try @ 5.0
    Lions to win by 1-12 points 2.37
    Lions to score last @ 1.80
    Second half highest scoring half @ 1.67
    Halfpenny to score more points than JOC @ 1.57
    One team will win both halves @ 2.10

    I got 7 out of 11.

    Stupidily I put that bet on Halfpenny to score 100% of kicks. Terrible odds. I didn't think that bet through.

    I was expecting Oz to start strong and then the Lions bench to come on and finish strong. Hence the Lions to score last + 2nd half highest scoring half.

    Still made a profit.

    Lions penalty wasn't the first score of the match right?

    Well done. I was looking at that but I didnt think he would get his hands on the ball as much as he did given that he was playing 7. if he was playing 6
