Is it essentially a 10-10 draw because they were given an 8 point head start, or do they just simply need to win by at least 8 points? Thanks.'"
Have a look around the firms, most were pricing up at hudds -6, you'd have just won with one of them

2 England games in a row last autumn. Big bonuses for the compilers. Great bet in-play is the handicap tie.

| I had Huddersfield (-6) and Wigan (-14) from last night. That's cutting it a bit close. Just need Cas to win by more than 2, and Saints to win by more than 8 - put a lucky 15 on, so should be quids in!

-6 on weds, presumed they moved to -8 after that then, must have been a few on at -6

Every firm (AFAIK) was -8 by kick off. Bookies had it absolutely spot on.

23997_1287161421.jpg [quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg |
