saints..13/8
leeds..13/8
wire..5/2
cats..12/1

these odds will no doubt change once the semi final draw has been rigged..sorry i mean drawn..

didn't work last year, who says it will work this?

No you were right the first time

Leeds Rhinos V Catalan Dragons(Huddersfield).
Warrington Wolves V St.Helens(Wigan).

I would bet my last penny on it.

Not a chance WM. Leeds v Wire at Hudders Stains V Cats at Leigh. Stains alway get the easy tie.

wire v leeds
saints v catalan

wire: featherstone(H) huddersfield(A) n bradford(A)
leeds: hull fc(A) blackpool(H) and wigan(H)
Saints: Tolouse(H) Harlequins(A) Barrow(H)

says it all...

Boring, boring, boring....

LOL at this thread.

If its boring don't read it and don't post on it, or is your post count that important?

latest odds from betfair since the draw:

Leeds: 6/4

Saints: 7/4

Defending Challenge Cup holders: 2/1 (now 8/5 within 1 minute of me looking) give it 10 mins we will be favourites - must be all the wigan fans betting on the best team.

Catalans: 15/1

Think I might have a punt with these odds

My post count is irrelevant. It was the reference to "rigged" draw which was boring.

Win Only

Warrington 13/8 St Helens 2/1
Leeds 2/1 Catalan Dragons 20/1

sorry, but those odds are totally wrong.
Wire a shorter price than 2 teams who beat us on a regular occurance and 20/1 for a team that currently stands at 5/5 in games played.

20/1 is the value by far

No they (Saints and Leed's odds) aren't wrong as their odds are heavily influenced by the fact they have to play each other in an even game. The winner of Saints and Leeds will be favourites for the final.

i know that, but in either case the winners of saints/leeds will go off at, at least 4/5/ 4/6 for the final. if playing catalans, then cats price will be 8s top, where as wire price will be 5/4/ 11/8.

i1ll hold my hands up i was wromg..the rfl have not shafted us as i expected...mind you we`ll probably get silverwood reffing our game...there you are tancw..now is that boring still

yeah, that's boring too.

not half as boring as you..do you like picking arguments or is there another side to you

No, it's just banter. ha ha.

jolly good...now heres the revised odds after that rigged draw sorry you know what i mean

leeds 15/8
saints 15/8
wire 7/4
cats 16/1

it makes me uncomfortable being the favourites. We have only won one cup and are only 1 and 3 places ahead of saints and leeds who have a team of seasoned finalists. Are the bookies jumping on the wire bandwagon? I just hope it doesn't put any more pressure on the lads.

Only because they can't pick a winner from Saints/Leeds. If we beat Cats we'll soon return to our underdogs tag. Fine with me.
