I see skybet are are offering 20-1 for leigh to go unbeaten in the league. That's a tempter

Can't see anyone going undefeated so 20/1 is miserly.

What a pessimist

If my calculations are correct, should you place a bet for Leigh to win outright at a miserly 1/3, then place your returns on the next game at the same odds, and so on over the 23 championship games, you would come out of the other end with effective odds of around 745/1 should we go the season unbeaten.

Even with variation in the odds, you'd still be seeing much bigger returns than 20/1.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong...

I like the way you think Michael, but then I am an accountant!

20/1

Pessimism and optimism are parallel , they go together to achieve an unbeaten record would be extremely hard and knowing the fixture system which is fair to be honest pessimism is not looking good , therefore I think we look on the unbeaten record with optimism.

Charlie - Do you, yourself, even know what you're on about?



For what it's worth, even if the current Wigan side, on full SL money and cap, were parachuted into the championship, I wouldn't take them at 20/1.

I think the league is too strong for anyone to go undefeated this year, think there'll be a few upsets for everyone. I think that'll be to our advantage though, knowing the opposition & the grounds better will mean we'll suffer less upset defeats than Bradford & so we'll finish above them and top.

Nice idea but a lot of games will see Leigh at shorter odds than 1/3 to win a game outright.

Absolutely no chance !!

If we lose 4 or less, we would have done well.

Think we'll have a good idea how our Championship season will go when we watch our game against the Bulls on February 15.

Undefeated, pah you will have lost 2 by round 3.

I must say I am very wary of the Bulls and he Broncos

The Watcher would like to point out the 3rd horse, in the 2 horse race,that all punters forget, the draw, the 20/1 gives you the draw. For what its worth The Watcher does not believe that we will go unbeaten all season however he does think that Bradford could well do it. What are their odds?

16-1

I don't think any of us are going unbeaten. You may well beat us in the first game but I'm not sure what we'll learn from that really. Perhaps you, us and london will trade wins but some of us mess up at bananaskins like fax and feath.

Then when wakey on twice the salary cap put 40 on us all, and we see the promotion opportunity is utterly fake, we both go into administration. Cup half empty anyone?

I didnt realize that London was the 3rd game.

Talk about a tough start, 2 tough ones and a gimme against Bradford.

Seriously though thats a lot different to last year where you had a relatively easy start and got on a roll by the time you played Fax at ours.

Those three are followed by Doncaster (away) and Featherstone! (away) A tough start indeed!

It will probably work out at least 10/1 to win the first 4, so skybet can whistle with their 20/1.

Anyone know if they given handicaps for tomorrow yet!

Yes' I do.

No odds offered.

Your system is better,as long as there isn't a draw!

It doesn't move the chances much, and even if 1/3 is too generous as an average, 20/1 is still way too short.

Ey-up gobblers. I'm predicting/hoping your first defeat comes in your 2nd match.

See you all down't Shay.
