A 2 point start? Hardly RED HOT.

Wow. You contributed to a thread and it consisted of something other than a random single word.

Being.

Love being underdogs, Classic Leeds

Oh.

+4 even money at Ladbrokes

This is a well-known marketing ploy that bookmakers undertake. It is known as the Girobuilder.

They lure their clients, some would say victims, into thinking their team are sure fire winners of a match and see the bets roll in as said clients see it as an easier option to earn money than working is. The ploy works especially well with the Evertonian and Liverpudlian nonceball fans too. For some reason that escapes me.

Bring it on...we've been underdogs before, and we will be again. No grief as Sinny says the pressure is all off us and on Saints young kids, on the biggest of stages. Suits me just fine!

We're hardly red hot favourites. My guess is that if we are favourites at all it is simply because we finished third in the league. They've given up on first and second coz we both kicked them out. So the logical next step is to declare third place the favourites.

I don't feel like I'm supporting the team favoured to win. I really have no idea who will win this match. If you were playing pants like when we last met you then that would be a different matter; I'd be confident of us taking you apart never mind beating you. But you aint playing pants anymore, we have a lot of inexperience in our side, and I'm sure the pitch at OT is twice as wide as any other pitch I've ever watched Saints play on! (Or maybe it has just seemed like that in my nightmares ...)

No we want to be the underdogs, you got to the final first by beating the "best side in superleague", so you deserve the favourites tag.

Don*t mean a Thing Kidda.

I can't help but feel a 2 score lead will have to be achieved to break the resolve of either team.

So I hope it's Leeds by 8 again.

Well in 2007 and 2008 we were underdogs but managed to pull off a shock.

However in 09 we were favourites and won that as well so I won't be paying much attention to the bookies thank you

Both teams are capable of beating the other and whoever turns up, plays well and gets the rub of the green will be champs

Strange that the two best tippers on SS both pick Leeds in the final even with no start given?

I just saw a bit of a preview on Sky Sports where they interviewed 3 England players and two said Leeds would win

Leeds are now MASSIVE favourites due to this new information

St Helens should be deserved favourites as they finished in 3rd and beat the Champions twice to get to the final. They have a team with rugby talent throughout and on their day are capable of running away with it.

But with if Leeds can maintain their current form the experience and mental strength of the senior players can swing it for Leeds.

It could be a classic if the ref is fair to both sides. I can't wait
