Default Re: Rugby: Heineken Cup and European Challenge Cup

Adding a few more. Unfortunately I arbed out all of my funds on the Greek and haven't bothered moving money back there since the end of the Rugby World Cup. I'm left with SIA and Bodog with their [censored] -120 and -115 lines. Here are the rest for today:

Toulouse -8.5 (-120) at Edinburgh
1.2u to win 1u
While Toulouse is playing away, they have an excellent team particularly in the back row. As well, Edinburgh has a smaller than normal HFA because they get crowds of between 2-4k in a 68k seat stadium. Should be pretty similar to the Ulster-Gloucester game, minus Ulster's HFA.

Ospreys -14.5 (-120) vs. Bourgoin
1.2u to win 1u
Ospreys have an improved lineup and are playing at home at the Liberty Stadium. Bourgoin's track record is awful away from home, particularly in the HEC. They have also struggled against Dax and Auch, the newly promoted teams in the Top 14.

Leinster +2.5 (-115) vs. Leicester
0.575u to win .5u
Leicester is the better team on a neutral field but the RDS should give Leinster a good edge. With solid forwards and brilliant backs, Leinster has what it takes to carve up the Leicester backline.
