Weekends Fixtures : Wed Apr 22, 2009 5:20 pm
My thoughts on this weekends fixtures,
Championship-
Thursday 23 April-
Leigh v Featherstone.
Can't pick a winner in this one, Leigh lost to Barrow and took a bit of a hiding at Toulouse however prior to that beat Widnes in a close contest, but with Fev coming in on the back of a big win up at Whitehaven it really could be anyones. SKybet aren't even offering a Handicap its that tight.
Saturday 25 April
Barrow v Batley
Karl Harrison is a decent coach, but you can't build a house without any bricks, a convincing win for Barrow I think.
Sunday 26 April
Doncaster v Toulouse
Could be a tight game, Donny pushed Widnes all the way the other week, and didnt look too bad against us, but Toulouse seem to be coming good now, after thumping Batley last week, and a decent win at home vs Leigh. think Toulouse will take it
Halifax v Gateshead
Halifax's game to lose, Gateshead will, like all other teams want to come and give fax a game, think we'll see a tight first half an hour with fax building a lead before half time, then building on that in the second, Fax by 30
Sheffield v Widnes
Sheffield lost 3 games in a week over the easter period but managed a bonus point in all 3, Not an easy time to turn their form around but Widnes are beatable as Leigh showed, I do however think Widnes will have too much for Sheffield.
