Who does everyone fancy this weekend?

leeds at plus 4 looks like value given that wigan are missing a few and in view of their start last week. The bookies must be thinking leeds will have one eye on the wcc next week.

Theres nothing there that particularly jumps out at me, with the exception of the Leeds game but that might just be because im bias. I think catalan might win by more than 8 but i wouldnt feel confident, I also think that Cas will beat bulls by more than 6 but again would prefer to keep my money in my pocket.

I'll be having some of that if Leeds are +4.

Really can't see past them at this point.

I'd agree, I think Leeds are a few weeks ahead too in preparation for the WCC.

Broncos look great value with 20 points against Wire and Cas should do a job on the Bulls, who looked awful last week against a very goood Catalan team.

I think Hull FC at +8 looks the best bet for me

Away in France against a Catalan team that is on form will be a really stern test but, go for it, its your brass.

Widnes +22
Leeds +4
Cas -6

The only 1 I'm slightly tempted on is Saints - 24. Weather depending!

I know it is a hard game for them but fc let in tries in the last minute of both halves against Wire so if they just concentrated a bit more they should have won the game. They will learn from that you would think.
Looking at the other games I think my team KR is too close to call off scratch (looking at the pic on twitter from belle Vue doesnt look like it will go ahead),
Wigan v Leeds again very close to call, hopefully a great match to watch on tv.
Cas v bradford, Looking at last weekend Cas beat a poor Salford team and in terrible conditions so hard to judge how Cas can play against better opposition (just)
Maybe Saints is the best bet but -24 points in what could be bad conditions is a lot of points to make up and same with Wire -20 and Hudd -22 in bad conditions is hard to do.
Think it looks like the best bet is to keep the money in your pocket the first couple of rounds

Nothing sticks out for me think i will just have a double of Cas and Hull KR

Hmmmmmm, much harder to call this week. The weather looks like it'll play it's part and keep games relatively low scoring affairs, with that in mind, i'm going;

Leeds +4
Widnes +22
London +20

10 quid

Pushed too, i'd add;

Castleford -6
Catalan - 8
St Helens -24
Wakefield Scr

Quids up!

Salford looked woeful against Castleford and a 24 point head start still doesn't convince me it'll be enough for them. Castleford whilst winning last week, didn't really give me an indication of what they're capable of and in the same respect Bradford whilst heavily defeated came up against a Catalan side which looked on fire. Wakey v KR looks like it could go either way and should tell us alot about either sides ambitions for the season

Think the handicaps are a bit steep for this time in the season, London with 22, Hull 10, Salford 24 and Leeds with 4 on Skybet.

This week i have gone for Leeds +6 and Hull fc +8 double.
