Some of those odds are remarkably flattering IMO.
Caveat: Not a bookmaker nor a professional punter.
I dont mind a bit of a bet, The Drua look good for me for an upset.
Havent spent alot of time watching Welly, are they 30.5 points better than Moana Pasifika?I wouldn't think so. But then you only have to look at my tipping record to qualify that advice.
(agree on the Drua)

@crucial too many debutants and players returning from injury to win by that much.

They should be
Pasifika have lost by 21 points when the Crusaders had a bit of a shocker & by 47 points against the Chiefs
Also remember Pasifika has to play a game on Tuesday so they'll be managing their resources

The MPs have three debutants in their lineup as well plus a lot of guys that are realistically NPC players so 30.5 points looks a touch low if anything.

@higgins I’ve got a weird feeling about this one, I hope we win by 30+ but I think it will be closer than that.

Tom Banks issued warning as Dane Zander receives suspension for high tackle
Couldn't find a clip of Zander's tackle.

It's difficult to escape the perception that the Australian judiciary is outright cheating at times. There's no mitigating circumstances in Banks' tackle except his own incompetence.
All this will do is further confuse the application of the laws in the eyes of the viewing public who will rightly deduce this process is an arbitrary joke.

For a second there I thought you were talking about the NRL judiciary

The brain damaged work there. They aren't clever enough to actively cheat. And the dumbest work in the bunker...

@antipodean
The Aussie judiciary consisting of someone from Australia, New Zealand and South Africa? There’s only so many things you can pin on us 😂 -

That is a terrible decision when taking into account the purpose of the law.
So the QC has found a shot that when slowed frame by frame shows some contact with the shoulder milliseconds before the head clash. The fact that the head clash was going to happen anyway makes this very different to 'riding up'
Banks was looking to make an upright tackle at speed. Extremely high risk whether there was minimal shoulder contact first or Pulu cut down the space slightly. Banks was simply out of control.
Lawyers eh?It's like claiming that it wasn't really a kick to the head because the boot grazed an arm on the way or a punch deflected off the shoulder on the way to a KO.
Just dumb.
