On a weekend when most rugby eyes will be on the other side of the world, we are going to take advantage of 3 cracking chances to make some money right here at home

Bristol vs Sale 1/11/19 19:45ko

We return to a Friday clash in the west country. Expect the atmoshere to be electric and the Bears to put on a show. Sale now missing both the Curry brothers, and of course their superstar blonde warrior at 9. They took advantage of London Irish last week, but I’m not sure how much of an achievement that will prove to be later in the season. Fortress Ashton Gate will be at its best.

Bristol -3 handicap 10/11 (most major bookies) – WON

Northampton vs Harlequins 1/11/19 19:45ko

Also Friday night, we visit the Gardens. I have been really impressed the way Saints have started the season. Even being behind at half time last week, they came out in the 2nd half and sent the warriors packing back across the midlands, bagging 5 points in the process. Grayson is really starting to lead this young Saints side and they keep on improving week on week. Quins look solid enough early in the season, but are still an average side at best for now, and they need their youngsters to really start stepping up to add more

Northampton -5 handicap 10/11 (most major bookies) – WON

Leicester vs Gloucester 2/11/19 15:00ko

Tricky times still for the Tigers, after a hard season last year they find themselves rock bottom and still to pick up a point after 2 games. Gloucester on the other hand are 2 from two and joint top. Not really hurt by the world cup, they look really strong and they will continue their good form this week by adding to Tigers misery. This really could be a rout

Gloucester -5 handicap 10/11 (most major bookies) – (lost)

Play the doubles and trebles this weekend. Build the cash pot and enjoy seeing England lift that cup saturday morning
