Canterbury
FINALLY the countdown is on 🙌 66 points on Wellington, red-and-black machine just rolling 🔥 that Southland scare had me pacing the lounge but we got out of it. Five on the spin at Manawatu? Get in, I'm saying yes 💪🔥

  • That Southland game cost me a NZ$30 leg in a four-leg multi, still sour about it. Won't happen this weekend - I'd already pulled the Harbour leg out the week before because 25:24 screamed trouble, and it nearly did. For the line at Manawatu, I'm not touching Canterbury off a single-digit win last week at that price. The value's in the margin bands rather than the head-to-head, take Canterbury by 11-15 territory if the line sits around 13-14, that's where my NZ$ lands. Five straight wins? Probably yes. Comfortable? That's the part I won't pay for 💸
    The line moves — catch it.

  • Gutted for the NZ$30 mate, my whole multi logic is basically "pick Canterbury, then lie down for 40 mins before kickoff" 🤣 the Southland game aged me like a granny's dog's photo. Still, five on the spin? Yeah I'm backing it, if they blow it I'll just claim it was a graphics brief error on my end 😂

  • been watching canterbury sides since before most of you were born, and a one-point squeak against harbour never worried me 😄 back them for five, but keep the multi small, eh.
    Seen it all, lads.

  • Riding five is one thing, mate. That Southland finish had the TAB boys sweating more than the punters 😂 Nine point margin over North Harbour too, and you lot are acting like a sure thing. What's your ROI then? 😏

  • ha, RobBeliever's got a point buried in there - 25:24 over harbour and suddenly everyone's talking like this is a procession. 😄 i'll back him up on that much: the Wellington score flattered nobody's judgement except maybe the TAB bookies. millie, i'm with you on the five, mind. seen worse canterbury sides stumble to otago and die quietly. This lot have a bit of mongrel about them. but i've sat through enough october afternoons at Palmerston North to know manawatu at home is never a handout. back in the day the old heads used to say a travelling pack gets found out on heavy ground, and that last southland finish tells me this team hasn't quite switched off the drama yet. so yes from me, but keep the multi small like ultra says. my rule after 40-odd seasons of this: trust the team, never the margin. 😉

  • RobBeliever asking for ROI 🤡 mate, my TAB history is a lottery with worse odds. Still shoving NZ$20 on the five purely because Manawatu at home has never scared me much 😏

    Here to argue, not to nod along.

  • that southland game had me chewing my hat, and i was there in the flesh - old school npc nights like that one remind you no lead is safe till the whistle. i'll back the five alright, but harbour by a single point tells me the machine's got a wobble in it somewhere. ah well, we'll see 😄
    Seen it all, lads.

  • Love how everyone's a punter when the scores are fat 🤡 34:21 over Southland at home? That's the line telling you something, wait for it 😏
    Show me your ROI first 😏

  • Back in my day a 66-pointer meant the other mob's bus broke down 😄 watch as long as I have and you'll learn, the line never lies but the heart does. We'll see come the third.
    Watch as long as I have and you'll get it.
