5:05pm Chiefs vs. Highlanders @ FMG StadiumBetting Tip: Highlanders +16.5 @ $1.90
We thought the Highlanders played well to beat the Waratahs last week, so we’re surprised by the +16.5 line against the Chiefs.
There is no doubt that the Chiefs are the testing material, but it’s an all-New Zealand game, and they’re usually competitive. Therefore, we’re jumping on the line and hoping for a close game in Hamilton on Friday night.
Money could come for the Highlanders, so jump on the line.

2:35pm Fijian Drua vs. Waratahs @ HFC Bank StadiumBetting Tip: Waratahs +8.5 @ $1.90
As bad as the Waratahs have been at times this season, we’re backing them to cover the spread against the Drua.
They were beaten by the Highlanders in a tight contest last week, and although the Drua come off a bye week, having beaten the Highlanders at home in the week prior, it should be a tight contest against teams needing a victory.
Punters should expect both teams to do a lot up front before spreading the ball wide. That should suit the Waratahs, so snap up the +8.5 line from bookmakers.

5:05pm Blues vs. Hurricanes @ Eden ParkBetting Tip: Hurricanes –4.5 @ $1.90
We didn’t like what we saw from the Blues last week against the Crusaders, and they could struggle to keep the Hurricanes from scoring a big total on Saturday afternoon.
The Hurricanes continued their winning run with an easy win over Moana Pasifika, and although beating the Blues is a harder task, they are well-equipped to score a comfortable win in Auckland, and the conditions should be ideal for running rugby.
The –4.5 line is better than expected, and the ‘Canes -4.5 is one of our best Super Rugby bets of the week.

7:35pm Force vs. Reds @ HBF ParkBetting Tip: Force –2.5 @ $1.90
There isn’t much between the Force and Reds with Super Rugby odds, but there has been late money come for the Force to bounce back from a loss to the Brumbies.
We gave them a good chance last week but not much went their way. However, against a Reds team that has struggled over the last few weeks, they could capitalise with home field advantage.
Being the favourites is encouraging, and it could come down to a late penalty, which should be enough to secure the –2.5 win.
