Grand Final Saints v Salford : Tue Oct 08, 2019 10:52 am
Cant believe there isn't a thread for the biggest game of the season so here goes.Saints, runaway leaders and with the LLS already in their trophy cabinet, take on pre season relegation candidates which, at the start of the season, you would have got unbelievable odds for predicting.
No surprise that Saints are there and they go into the game as clear favourites, although the bookies are giving Salford only 10 points start on the handicap, which seems to show some respect.
Battle hardened contenders against Champions elect.
It would be a brave man to back against Saints, who will want to lose their "choking" tag and the way that they rolled over Wigan a couple of weeks ago seems to indicate that they mean business.
However, Salford made equally light work of despatching the Pies and IF they can keep it close for the first 20 (or take the lead), this could be one hell of a final.
As a neutral, it would be great to see the underdog prosper but, as long as it's a decent contest and hopefully close until the final hooter, who cares.
