| Quote PopTart="PopTart"Remember this is to win the league not avoid relegation.
HKR have history of making a final as have Salford.
But ultimately, the odds are not set for who they just think are least likely to win.
They clearly think Wakefield supporters need a more tempting offer to bet. That's all they are doing. They want you to bet on a losing option.
If someone actually places a decent bet, those odds will change.'"
Yep, generally it's weight of money that shorten odds, i used to be a bookies clerk on Britain's racecourses many moons ago, very interesting world, but could get quite murky at times, probably not so much nowadays.....

| Lets be honest here, 100-1 for us to win the league is about right.
However, remember Leicester City??
5,000-1 to win the Prem League????
It can happen.....
I'll wait and see what the relegation odds are first...
And the game isn't played on "recruitment" (Wire 2022) or paper.
It's played on a pitch and most of our squad have played together in SL - unlike Leigh's for example.
Up the Trin!

| You can counter the 100/1 outsider of the lot price by saying the 8/1 for us to make the Top 6 is actually a bit of value. I'm not saying it's expected and I'm more than aware that next season will be a tough year to stay competitive and avoid relegation but there's always a surprise team that exceeds expectation, why couldn't that be us ?

Bang on BG.
In honesty, it's difficult to see us higher than 9/10/11th but, it's the same every year.
Applegarth will bring some fresh ideas and plenty of enthusiasm and he's done pretty well with the reserves etc.
As usual, we live in hope and if we can have a little bit more luck with injuries (the lack of them), we will go ok.
We played most of last season without our first choice three quarters, although, Hall and Murphy were exceptional "replacements".
As usual, it will be the pack and the halves who make the difference and we have some new faces.
However, if we stay relatively injury free and the new guys fit in well, we will be ok.
It's a big year too, our 150th anniversary, which is a huge milestone.
Come on Trin !

| The only comfort I get from this is it's Sky doing the forecasting, they've probably heard it from the bookies or the Warrington wolve, or maybe they've consulted Dick & Liddie, or the peg seller, or that waste of space we got from Cas for a season, or maybe even the font of all RL knowledge from Wigun, he's done wonderfully well on Sky with his prediction.

That's not how it works now.
They get the prices from central analytics companies, then the traders will see if there is anything to change based on their own knowledge or the amount of money posted.
Thats why you often see the same odds at different bookies before the events get close.

Not sure how it works tbh not being into betting at all, my post if I'm honest was simply to show my contempt for those well paid clowns what ruin my Sky viewing of the matches by having to turn the sound off every game when they're coaching, sorry amateurishly commentating on the games.

If it makes you feel better, Sky don't own any part of SkyBet any more.

As I said before I don't gamble on anything, except maybe if a certain gentleman in red commented on our CEO it wouldn't be complimentary
I'll tell you something for nothing though Sky no longer own me either as I've now seen out my Sky Q contract, I'll miss certain aspects of it, but not the Sky rugby commentary team or the bl**dy adverts either.

| Lol. I'm all in with Sky.
The commentary team don't bother me but C4 and Premier both showed them the way.
