Catalans v Castleford
This sports betting tip was written by Sandy on March 7th, 2009 at 16:42
Over 46.5 points.
A lot of pundits are putting Castlefords hammering down to how poor the Reds were but that is a bit unfair as Cas did run in 9 trys and some of the handling was of a very good standard indeed. Sherwin is running the show and controlling the rucks but probably more importantly they have a stronger set of forwards who are laying the platform.
28 points scored at Wigan was fine going too, despite the Warriors poor start to the season.
Catalans are up then down then up then down again. They have lost a fine coach in Potter and maybe its had a big effect on the group. We seen them at their very best at Warrington running up 40 points but they were poor at Hull last week. Their only home game so far resutled in real hammering by the Giants in one of the shock results so far.
They do still have plenty of quality though in Mogg and Greenshields and for me these 2 were possibly the most exciting players in super league last year. We will see them get back to form and at home to a side like Cas their supporters will be expecting it.
I really have no idea who will win this game but im sure it is going to be high scoring. Both sides have plenty of attacking class but can be very weak near their goal line. Catalans have still not sorted out their defence on that right hand side and this is the side of the park Cas love to attack and while the French do score heavily at home we do see that line broken with some easy quite often.
