hull to win 2/1
hull +8 10/11
2 x singles
good luck in wot u bet
Hi Lanky, I fully agree with your selection of Leigh for the cup, Halifax beat them a couple of weeks ago but I feel that was an off day.
The money printing game of the weekend in my view is my teams game.
Bradford vs Huddersfield
I can not believe that the bookies are only giving Bradford an 8 point head start. Bradford put in an absolutely disgraceful performance last week against a Castleford side that is very poor & lost by 4. Huddersfield gave Bradford an absolute hammering at the start of the season 50-16. Bradford are low on confidence, their defence has been none existant in the last couple of games & they seem to fall out of games after 20 minutes so I am fully expecting the giants to totally blow us away this week.

i agree with both selections.
i actually backed halifax to win northern rail cup a week back,brian noble seems to have breathed some confidence into halifax who won last four games,hes been working on halifaxs defence and its seems to have worked,but im doing a uturn local rags say halifax could have 6 first teamers out with injury seems the bookies are already onto this shortening leigh to 2/5>4/7.
halifax have 2 centres out and 4 forwards so will after adjust pack.
huddersfield have lost last couple of games but they were to the top 2 teams in league wigan and warrington,the giants have had a tough run in but had a 4 day break which was needed and it was 9 days since last game,brown admitted they needed a few days off after disapointing defeat at wigan.
i wouldnt take too much away from castleford as they had a lot of injuries before but have everyone fit again and might put in some decent performances against sides in and around them in coming weeks.
the giants dont have too many injuried players so will take near full squad to odsal, the giants have struggled against the top 2 in league but performed well against the clubs below them.
huddersfield to cover the handicap for me the only slight concern is giants have a big game against castleford in cup a week later so they might try and slow things down abit but -8 shouldnt take much doing.
leigh -6 9/10
huddersfield -8 9/10
pays just under 3/1.
Hi Toby, I think you can forgive Huddersfield for losing to Warrington & Wigan (although I dont believe Wigan are in the finest form they still grind out the wins) & with the expected return of Danny Brough this weekend it will give Huddersfield leadership and creativeness that they may have been missing.
Just another quick one for this mornings game in Aus, the Broncos are not on fire at the moment (given that they did beat an inform Eels team) but the Titans are absolutely shocking. Sitting bottom of the league and not really looking like they are going to string a performance together any time soon. Broncos on home soil with an easy win for me.
Not the best performance from Brisbane, plenty of errors and lots of silly penalties given away but their second half defence won them the game keeping the Titans scoreless.

Usually i do try avoid betting against my own team but i think Hudderfield are a superb bet this weekend, Bradford have been improving over recent weeks however are still poor in defence so we should concede alot of points against this top class Huddersfield side.
A fellow Bradford Fan scooby? This bet is almost as good as the one earlier in the season when we played warrington at home and we had a 12 point head start!!! That was like taking candy from a baby!
Yes i was a season ticket holder up until this season, quite frankly what has happened to our once dominant club is shocking, like Bradford City we have gone down faster than a cheap hooker, thankfully tho we have alot of good young upcoming talent at the club so i may get a season ticket for next season

LEEDS RHINOS v HULL FC
The Leeds Rhinos three match losing run as seen the Yorkshire based club slip to eighth in the Engage Super League and they are now endangered of missing a play off place. There task as been made somewhat more difficult with the loss of both Brent Webb and Kylie Leuluai though the return of Rob Burrow should soften the blow as he’s served a one match ban.
They face an inform Hull side, a team that have won four of there last five games and a return for scrum half Sam Obst should add a further confidence boost after he recovered from a calf injury. Craig Fitzgibbon also returns after recovering from a shoulder injury as Hull look to tighten there grip on a play off place.
