by Welcome to the Magic Weekend and the start of the Super League
for 2011. This is Round 1. Its good to see the old faces back
for a new season and one new face. Welcome Neil Dowling. I hope
you are as mad as the rest of us.
There is one strange thing about this week's tipping and which
I have never seen before. Usually the tipsters' collective tips
and the bookies are fairly similar. However in all 7 games this
weekend us tipsters have gone against the bookies. Very very
unusual!!
Our tipsters are saying that the tightest game is the headline
Saints v Wigan match, the repeat of the Grand Final. We say
this game will be a draw. The other tight game on tipping would
appear to be the Hull derby with tipsters saying Hull FC will
come out slightly ahead.
