THE home nations are all in Autumn Test rugby action today and Wales look poised to pile on the misery for struggling South Africa in Cardiff.
The Springboks are in disarray and there for the taking after already being thumped by England, Argentina and Italy to leave them one loss away from a record-breaking eight defeats in a year.
Wales have recovered from a heavy defeat to Australia by beating the Argies and Japan and are 4-7 at Stan James for a third straight victory today while the Boks are 93-50 at Marathonbet.
Elsewhere, Ireland v Australia has the makings of a cracker and bookies are struggling to separate them, with the hosts evens at Paddy Power and the Wallabies 15-13 at Bet Bright.
England should cruise to victory over Argentina at Twickenham and likewise Scotland when Georgia pitch up at Rugby Park.
Elsewhere today, the third Test between India and England gets under way in the early hours and there's the likes of UK Championship snooker and Davis Cup tennis worth a flutter in a packed Saturday of sport.
Good luck with your bets and let's hear all your tips and chat.
3rd test India v England
Kohli 1st innings o39.5 – 5/6 WH
Root 1st innings o32.5 – 9/10 Coral
Probably the two best and most consistent batsmen in the world. Kohli has scored 40+ in his 4 innings in this series so far. Root has scored 40+ in his last 4 1st innings knocks. Lets hope the runs continue. Pun intended.
UK Snooker Championship Saturday Round 2 bets:
Holt -1.5 – v Yuelong – 17/20 SportingBet
Mann +1.5 – v Baird – 19/20 BetStars
Have backed Yuelong a lot recently with a lot of success but I expect Holt to get it done here after an impressive first round performance. Mann put in a good performance to beat last week’s semi finalist, Kyren Wilson, in the first round and whilst Baird also won well, he has been patchy of late.

Northampton down to 14 players at half time did not help. They were up by 5 in the second half at one point. Connacht/Cardiff lacked points in the second half. Disappointing!
Saturday International Singles
After last night’s double disappointment I’ve decided to stick to singles today.
Fiji v Japan
Under 56.5 total points
1.90 @ bet365
Both teams are playing away at a neutral ground and it should be a close game. Can’t see eithr team running away with it.
Scotland v Georgia
Scotland under 38.5 team points
1.83 @ bet365
Scotland have performed admirably recently and deserved their win over Argentina. However, Georgia are no mugs and always give a good account of themselves. They only lost to NZ away by 33 points last year.
Wales v South Africa
Wales -5 point spread
2.10 @ bet365
As @gunner said, SA are in a bit of a mess. Wales improved in their last game whereas SA stooped to a new low against Italy.

Looks solid. Good luck mate!

Detroit Pistons Over 99.5 Team Points @ 47/50 @ Marathon Bet – 2.5 points (4/5 @ Skybet)
Not sure why the Spurs are being so disrespected by Washington. They’ve won their last 8, with 5 of those being road victories. Their biggest margin of victory in that spell is 9 points but they are still perhaps the best coached team in the NBA and should eek out the Wizards who have lost half of their eight home games. Spurs have three days off after tonight so should have all eyes on the Wizards.
San Antonio Spurs ML
Detroit Pistons Over 93.5 Team Points @ 43/50 @ Skybet – 2.5 points
Are betting spurs to win by 7pts or more…?
Main bets were up yesterday and I don’t have much time so a quick few bets I fancy as well (Small stakes):
Treble of Italy ML, Japan +10.5 and over 36.5 points Aus/Ireland game at 6/5 (bet365).
Australia ML (evens)
Wales over 2.5 tries (5/6)
NZ -10.5 and England over 30.5 points (5/6)
Over 54.5 points NZ/France game (evens)
Was thinking the opposite on points for the NZ game!
A lot better on the darts today thankfully. Bets for Round 3 this evening:
Chisnall most 180’s – v Klassen – 8/11 Betway
Kist win – v Pipe – Evs general
Norris -1.5 – v Webster – 8/11 bet365
Huybrechts -2.5 – v Dolan – 8/11 general

☆☆☆WINNER☆☆☆
BLOODY FRUSTRATING!! A try in the last few mins by Scotland and Japan turn a full house to just one winner. Oh well. Disappointed for Georgia. They’re on the cusp of breaking into the six nations at the expense of Italy and blew it today. Japan were not prepared according to their coach. What a knob. Wales did the job as expected.
France v New Zealand
Under 54.5 total points
1.80 @ bet365
New Zealand are coming to the end of a long year and a tough tour. French will be defending hard with the World Cup whooping still ringing in their ears. Will NZ succumb to the charms of gay Paris as Australia did several years ago?
GL if you follow
Great call. Well done mate
Thanks, was close in the end though. France almost got them in the second half.
Evening lads – 2 player prop singles for me tonight ..
Draymond green (gsw) over 9.0 rebounds evens
Westbrook (okc) over 10.0 assists evens
Good luck everyone
