🏉 8 days until the URC is back.

Had a look at the opening weekend and tried to predict what the bookies’ handicaps might be:

🇮🇪 Connacht -7.5 v Stormers
🇮🇪 Ulster -7.5 v Edinburgh
🇿🇦 Lions +6.5 v Leinster
🇿🇦 Sharks -8.5 v Ospreys
🇮🇪 Munster +5.5 v Glasgow
🇮🇹 Zebre +3.5 v Bulls
🏴 Scarlets +4.5 v Cardiff

Am I miles off on any of them? 👀
