Here are the odds this evening for Super Leagues regular season winner.
As you can see the bookies think its a definite two horse race.

Wigan 11/10
Warrington 11/10

St Helens 10/1
Huddersfield 12/1
Leeds 28/1
Bradford 100/1
Castleford 100/1
Hull KR 125/1
Quins RL 150/1
Hull FC 150/1

It sort of looks like it is

It's all very well to go and beat wigan in there own backyard. But we now need to smash catalan on sunday and kick on from this great start. Cause any kind of upset on sunday and the bookies would again have wigan as favs in a flash regardless of how they do at leeds.

People were predicting a Wigan/Wire GF this time last season too. A lot can happen between now and October, people need to stop getting carried away.

So do I. Although, too early to pick from the two. Short of both teams having 10 injuries each, I can't see past us or the pies.

Hudds are a good price

What are the odds on who will make the GF? If the odds are similar, then both Hudds and Saints might be worth a lazy fiver.

Give over, get carried away.

We're unstoppable, and bar alien invasion or a massive injury crisis we're winning one or both trophies this year.

Awesome.

Again a clear gap, but not quite as pronounced.

Wigan 13/10
Warrington 2/1

St Helens 11/2
Leeds 8/1
Giants 10/1
Hull KR 50/1
Bradford 50/1
Castleford 66/1
Hull FC 80/1
Quins RL 200/1
Catalan 250/1
Salford 250/1
Crusaders 250/1
Wakefield 250/

Congratulations on making a load of rival fans sigs should anything go wrong with TS' grand plan

I'm not going to sit at home worrying about what obstacle we might fail to overcome, chief. I'll sit here, knowing this side is very, very capable of achieving something amazing (as they have done the past two years).

If we don't win SL, that's the time to hold your hands up, tell <insert team> fans that their side was magnificent and that we fell short. I know though, it'll take some effort to stop us being involved in finals this year. We're setting the standards (and Wigan to a degree) that other sides must strive to achieve.

And you can guarantee that Saints and Wigan fans in particular will grab the opportunity!



We were written off this time last year too. We don't mind at all.

I'd agree that the side is capable. More than capable. In fact, right now, we look <insert expletive of choice here> excellent right now. But I'll stop short of saying that we're unstoppable and that the CCup and/or the GF are ours already if that's ok with everyone

i`ll write you off,you cant even beat us or quins..

YES and you still ended the season without a trophy!!!!

.

and a ground!

2 years.... and you've won naff all.

2 years.... and you've won naff all.

That's the point isn't it. They always say that they were rubbished last year. Well they didn't win out.

But went through us when it mattered.

A 2 horse race and the season is only 1 5th the way gone

At those prices I'd take Huddersfield.

Regarding St Helens, they are notoriously slow starters who always improve as the season goes on. As long as Eastmond is no where near the teambus, Saints will still be in the mix come the business end.

Huddersfield go off the boil far too easy to finish at the top outright. Danny Brough doesn't play, Huddersfield don't seem to play. Saints are in with a shout as someone else mentioned they always get better further into the season. Should we lose some daft games, Wigan losing the head-to-heads, and Saints keeping quiet and keeping pace, may just be worth a Paul McKenna. But IMHO Wire to finish 1st. Will we win the GF or CC? Far too early to call.

I hardly think you're in a position to take the mick about you beating us since it took you ten years, a move from Knowsley Road, the loss of Keiron Cunningham and us in total disarray to actually achieve a win over us! Just because you aren't y anymore doesn't mean you will beat us every time. You played us at the right moment for your advantage. Maybe by the time we visit your pad, we will have put our early season disruption behind us and be firing on all cylinders.

However, you go and write us off. That's fine by us. After all those years of being the dominant force, it's nice not to have the pressure. We can just sneak up on you like we did last year.



FWIW, I think the world is Wire's oyster this season. Now that you have finally put the Saints hoodoo to bed, you have your best chance ever to make it to and win the Grand Final. Whether your team will be mentally strong enough to maintain the necessary level of competitiveness and aggression in defence is what will decide the matter IMO. Wigan will not necessarily be your contenders. They have been found out. Who will be is anyone's guess; indeed whether Wire have what it takes to fulfil their obvious potential is anyone's guess. We're not even halfway through the season yet. But on present showing I'd definitely put Wire in the Grand Final. Not sure who would be your opposition though.

we still beat you dont matter where we played you or who you had missing.quins beat you..youve played and lost the last 4 grand finals.got no scrum half.an ageing full back..no daniel anderson(best coach you`ve had for years)..and rumour has it you lot wanted sean long back...enjoy battling to get in the top 4

Have you not watched/read match reports on Saints the past two weeks? A kid by the name of Jonny Lomax who has excelled at scrum off and who has controlled games against Leeds and Bradford(Decent opposition) with consumate ease. Add that in to a pack of Graham/Roby/Perrry/Soliola/Wilkin and with Puletua and Lms off the bench pretty decent pack when all fit i'd say. Oh and Pryce to come back in May/June time when the tracks firm up. I certainly know which team will be peaking at the right time and not MARCH, silly boy.

thats me off to the bookies..mortgage on saints winning a grand final cos a saints fan says they`ll peak at the right time...lend me your crystal ball it might av next weeks lotto numbers..one thing at least your not calling for the coaches head
