Only one game of interest for me today, Widnes v Hull KR.
KR getting 4 start in my book, but total opposite on the high street, which I fail to understand why. Both teams pretty much know there final positions, KR more than likely to finish 8th, and Widnes out of the playoffs.
The problem I have with KR is there away form is better when they have played top 6 teams, but when playing teams below them it is hit and miss, it would seem they go to certain grounds with the just got to turn up attitude. Another concern would be their seemingly inability to score points away from home, hitting 30 points or more on only 3 occasions, 2 of these being at Salford and London.

Widnes on the other hand, certainly know where the try line is. Racking up 32 points or more in 8 of their 12 home games, including the last 5. Of their losses at home, only 3 games have been by 2 converted try's or more, and they were against teams better than KR.
Widnes @6/4 with Fred's. Of the others, Wakey have a chance of covering the cap, if they want to, and that's a big if, whilst games being played at Cas and Bradford are totally irrelevant and dangerous to get involved with. |

I'm sticking with the theory that Cas games are mad, so have backed overs in their game. Both teams have nothing to play for and so I am hoping the defences go missing as much as they usually do. The real risk is that Chase just cant be arsed as he knows he is going, but on the other hand he could easily just go "hollywood" on every play and throw as many intercepts as assists. Salford certainly look a team more able to attack than defend, the weather is good, surely a 60pt+ game?
Tempted by Hudds tonight on the cap. Not at all convinced Wakey are even slightly interested any more, woeful last time out, and Hudds of course can win this one and then put their feet up for a bit. Tim Smith on his way, financial problems all over, doesn't bode well for the away side. |

By:
Personally think Hudds being sub 1.1 is hilarious. I wouldn't even touch them in the 1.3s - without the Shield on the line they would be 1.2 min.
|
|
By:
you are aware that Hudds are top of the league because they tend to win most games right?
|
|
By:
Bradford 0-4 London Broncos HT
Is that the most pathetic scoreline all season? 4pts on a clear, warm day. Only 10-0 to Cas right now which is more worrying for me. |
|
By:
Good call Twonky, Widnes win 36-22. Seemed to be a disallowed try every 5 minutes.
Bradford lose 10-20 at home to Broncos. How bad is that? |
|
By:
Got me overs in the Castleford game, finishes 44-30
Didn't start well, but I think 54pts in the second half. Complete madness as expected. |
|
By:
Goulding and Lee Smith at half-back for Wakey, means I have to have a go on Hudds -20. Hope they put on a show.
|
|
By:
RM - I still make Hudds favourites (and rate Hudds) but Wakey are a ridiculous price.
|
|
By:
Rugbyman - Huddersfield are top of the league because they have had a freakish run with no injuries and no latter stage involvement in the Challenge Cup. They are the 4th best team in the league at best and judging by the Grand Final prices everyone agrees.
Wakefield do have issues in the halves but I agree in that I would have no interest in backing them at 1.30, let alone 1.08. -20 at odds on is insane. However, there is the angle that they could chuck it in, in which case taken the higher handicaps at a price is surely the way to go. |

Have to lay Hudds at these odds

Coming across as VERY arrogant pre-match...

Thuggery from Aiton
|
|
By:
Did he lose that?
|
|
By:
Ref tells Robinson not to come running in, but doesn't give Aiton a card for that.
|
|
By:
No, he didn't
|
|
By:
Indeed, RM. Pathetic.
|
|
By:
They've got to make their minds up. If you dont deal with thugs fights will happen.
Hudds looking very good so far. |
|
By:
Cockayne's defending = absolutely shambolic. Created a chance for Hudds by going in to tackle a man who is already tackled by 3 players, misses and falls over to create an overlap.
|
|
By:
1.03? That's stupid.
|
|
By:
vis if you carry on laying these short 1s you soon be skint
|
|
By:
hudds will win GRAND FINAL imo
|
|
By:
I would say the Warrington Widnes and Salford Hull KR games are enough by themselves to produce a profit for the year...
|
|
By:
I'd go skinter backing them - RLKP school of betting

got there this time - how's my lay looking
 |
|
By:
As good as mine Vis :D
|
|
By:
It's looked like a case of how many from the very first minute. Don't think Wakey have done anything yet.
|
|
By:
Still - in RL, anything can happen...
|
|
By:
Wakey are already on the ski slopes here. Not interest today.
|
|
By:
Wigan v Leeds. The game neither side want to win. Will be interesting......
|
|
By:
Why not?
|
|
By:
Play at Wire or play at Huddersfield?
|
|
By:
Well the bookies tell us playing at Wire is harder. I wouldn't fancy going to either.
|
|
By:
I agree Vis. However, if you have to choose...
