Saints -24 is this Christmas come early? Surely we should win by 50. They have no team!!!

A lot depends on who the 4 are they leave out of the 21. If they play Powell, Hastings, Isa, Bullock and leave out the 4 least experienced players then they could cobble together a half decent 13 at least and I’d back them to get within 24. But if they leave Hastings and Powell out especially then they could be in trouble.
NEVER WRITE OFF THE SAINTS
You’d assume so but they may also want just a couple of older heads in there to steer the young ones around. Sending a complete 2nd string 17 could be disastrous. But then again, they play Hastings and Powell and one them gets injured, the fans won’t be quick to forgive Lam for risking them.
I wouldn’t be placing any bets til an hour before the game when the teams are named personally.

I expect us to win by at least 20 that’s before I saw the handicaps.
Also wouldn't risk my money on Saints, as we've been Jekyll & Hyde since the resumption. Play crap like we did against Cas, HKR, Wire and we won't win by 25. Play closer to our potential like we did against Leeds and Catalans and we will.
I just picked the 4 most senior players from the squad named to be fair.
However I disagree on Powell. Prior to this season I would always describe him as solid if unspectacular. A good defender and a reliable player. But it seems to have added more to his attack this year too.

If you want to have a bet, have a look at that Warrington team v Salford. Salford were still 2/5 to win and -8 on the handicap five minutes ago.

Are they still taking bets?
