MOANA PASIFIKA vs FIJIAN DRUA – Click here to bet
Moana Pasifika are currently sitting in 8th position on the log after losing their opening game of the tournament by 14 points to the Highlanders.
They took on the Highlanders in round 1, last week Saturday and they managed to open the scoring with 2 penalty kicks before the Highlanders scored a try and went ahead. They then regained the lead just before half-time but in the end, they could not hold onto the lead and lost 35-21.
The Fijian Drua side are currently in 10th on the log with just 2 teams left behind them after they took on the Blues last week Saturday in their first match of the season, losing by 24 points in the end.
The Fijian Drua were behind on points straight from the get-go and they struggled to keep the Blues team from crossing the try line, resulting in a dominant win for the Blues in the end and leaving the Fijian Drua with a lot of work to do in the build-up to round 2 this weekend for when they take on Moana in Melbourne.
Suggested Bet: Fijian Drua by 7 or more at 1.90
I believe this side is filled with talent and they will work well together in this match, putting in a dominant performance and claiming the win.

CRUSADERS vs WARATAHS – Click here to bet
After lifting the trophy in last year’s season, the Crusaders did not have the start they would have wanted this year, falling a few points shy of the Chiefs in the opening round last week Friday and leaving themselves in 7th position on the log.
The Crusaders looked slack early on, allowing in 2 early Chiefs tries which left them trailing, they eventually got back into the game, closing the gap and going ahead by 2 points but in the end, they did not have enough to win the match and they had to settle for a losing bonus point.
The Waratahs are another team who haven’t had the perfect start to the season and they currently sit in 9th position on the log after facing an 18-point defeat to their local rivals, the Reds.
There was not much between the two sides initially with each of them exchanging tries up until just before half-time when the Waratahs gave away a penalty try which swung the momentum into the Reds hands and the Waratahs failed to get back into the game for the remaining 40 minutes.
Suggested Bet: Crusaders -18.5 at 1.85
The money is coming for the Crusaders and I think they will win this by at least 3 converted tries.
