kevshat Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Re: Rugby League: Super League - Round 4 Well done Kevshat and Sandbag for their picks :clap It was bloody freezing there tonight, but the atmosphere was awesome, I love the banter on the terraces. Trouble is with Warrington is that their play is sooo predictable. Either Lima, Wainwright, Wood, Leikvoll or Hilton make the metres with forward drives, then Lee Briers puts in a decent kick and with a decent chase, but there's no individual invention, no offloads, no powerplays. I should have had Salford tonight, I really did fancy them. Well done to them Will post my picks for tomorrows games a little later. Cheers Rugbylad. Not a bad night. You've hit Warrington's problems right on the head. Predictable Rugby League will get you so far but to beat the best you need a bit of genius because not only are the likes of Saints, Leeds and Bradford awesome in attack but they are fantastic in defence too. Still it's early in the season and as the warm weather comes along later in the season so may more creative football for Warrington.

rugbylad Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 Re: Rugby League: Super League - Round 4 Wildcats v Huddersfield Giants (Scr/+4) Hmmmmm……difficult one! As I have mentioned in previous weeks, I really do rate this Wakefield team (it seems as though when Solomona and Tadulala put in a good performance the whole team picks up). I also rate Huddersfield this year, they have a lot of creative players that can unlock the best of defences. Both teams have recruited well and have the potential to challenge for a top six top (especially with Wigan and Warrington looking a tad out of sorts). So as PaulM mentioned earlier in the thread, this game will be a good indication of which team is ready to step up to the mark and challenge. Both Sam Obst (suspended) and Jon Whittle (back injury) will be missing for the Wildcats while Jamie Rooney is nearing a comeback after seven months out with a cruciate ligament injury but the playmaker is still short of match fitness. Giants only have Jim Gannon on the long term injury list and are able to select from the same squad that played in last week’s 36-20 defeat at Wigan. Seems to be a lot of money going onto Huddersfield, bookies have completely cut the +6pt (Huddersfield), they have even cut the price on Huddersfield +4pts. But the Wildcats haven’t played at home since the opening round, where they almost and should have beaten the Bradford Bulls, I believe that they will be coming away with the spoils tomorrow evening, but only just. It should be a very close and fascinating game, not one to go mad on (small stakes only). Griffin, March, Korkidas, Solomona, J. Field, Betham, White, Wrench, MacGillivray, Elima, Henderson, Applegarth, King, Saxton. Huddersfield (from): Reilly, Aspinwall, Evans, De Vere, Thorman, Paul, Crabtree, Drew, Nero, Snitch, Wild, Jones, Jackson, March, Smith, McDonald, Gardner, Torrens. Recommendation – Wakefield Wildcats @ 10/11 bluesquare (1pt) (Prediction – Wakefield to win by 4/6pts) Wakefield (from): Halpenny, Demetriou, Tadulala, Jeffries, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandbag IV Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Re: Rugby League: Super League - Round 4 I'm with rugbylad again on this one. A double on Bradford and Wakefield is my bet for today - you can never be sure how a English team is going to go on down in France but Bradford were my pre-season tip to win superleague again, so i'll stick with them. Wakefield a bit unsure to be honest - a win here could proover they are a half decent side. GL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandbag IV Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Re: Rugby League: Super League - Round 4 Well I scrapped that idea and have just had a small bet on there being over 46 points @ even instead to keep me interested in the game.

rugbylad Posted March 4, 2006 Author Share Posted March 4, 2006 Re: Rugby League: Super League - Round 4 Recommendation – Bradford Bulls -14pts @ 1.90 stanjames (2pts) (Prediction – Bradford win by 24/26pts) (Scale 1-5) :nana Recommendation – Wakefield Wildcats @ 10/11 bluesquare (1pt) (Prediction – Wakefield to win by 4/6pts) (Scale 1-5):( Wakefield lost it in the last min, but my big bet was on Bradford to romp over the -14pts, which they kindly did......hope you all had some luck today!!

davidmphill Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Re: Rugby League: Super League - Round 4 I'm shocked that the Wildcats lost to the Giants. Bad beat getting hit so late on in the game. Its turning out to be a good season so far, even better when you look at Wigan's place in the table!:loon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevshat Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Re: Rugby League: Super League - Round 4 10pts Castleford (+32) to beat Leeds 10/11 Stan James Cas will be boosted by a win last week albeit against Les Catalans. Leeds lost at Saints last week and will want to bounce back. I think they'll win but in a derby game that could be tight and narrow I think Cas will hold onto to their start. This one has been rearranged for Sunday and I've not changed my mind. In fact there's a chance neither side will be completely ready so it could be a scrappy match and 32 points is a lot to cover.
