Best Bet

Waratahs –13.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

The Waratahs made the perfect start to the season when beating the Reds 36-12, and it was one of the most impressive games of the week.

Expectations were tapered before the season kicked off, but when the Waratahs play with confidence, they’re capable of beating any team in the competition, especially teams like the struggling Fijian Drua, who suffered a poor loss.

The Drua lost heavily to the Pasifika (40-26), and if their defence doesn’t come to play, it could get ugly early. Therefore, we’re backing the Waratahs to exercise their class and put up another big score against a team searching for answers.

Back the Waratahs to cover the –13.5 spread.

Same Game Multi

Waratahs -13.5, Max Jorgensen Anytime Try Scorer, Joseph Suaalii Anytime Try Scorer, Over 57.5 @ $10.75

Bet Now

Max Jorgensen is one of the most exciting Super Rugby players and he showed why last week. He scored two tries against the Reds, and if he’s anywhere near his best, he should cross the line against the Drua. He’s a $1.67 favourite, so include him in multis.

Joseph Suaalii doesn’t score as often as he should, but the $2 odds are tough to ignore. He has two tries from his last five games, and if he shows his try-scoring form from the NRL, he should have success this year.

Our Super Rugby same game multi picks include over 57.5 points, as the Waratahs could rack up another big performance.

Best Value Bet

Max Jorgensen First Try Scorer @ $8.25

Bet Now

We are all in on Jorgensen, who should be licking his lips about the prospect of playing against a Drua defence that allowed 40 points against Moana Pasifika.

The Waratahs superstar should find a gap in the defence and cross for an early try, and he’s the player they try to get the ball to.

We priced him at $6.50, so the $8.25 with Super Rugby odds is generous.
