Les Catalans http://www.betshoot.com/images/vs.gif Warrington Wolves
http://www.betshoot.com/avatars/noavatar.jpg This is the second of the Super League Playoff games and a loss for either side and it's goodnite 2008.
The catalans Dragons may be in raptures at making the finals and gaining a hOme semi but this match has alot on it all around it,the catalans finished in 3rd place on the ladder and after a great win against Huddersfield a few weeks ago to really cement their place have struggled through the rest of the season,it's intresting because I picked Catalans to win the Wooden Spoon and they did played far betteer than that during the season but when you loo at their side on paper it is not overly strong,I have been waiting for a chance to see some sort of problems with them and the last few weeks have shown just that,while making the finals the Dragons have already gained their dream and I really think they have taken their fot off the pedal somewhat,their side when you look at it just does'nt look the class of any of the other sides and usually in big games players not up to standard falter and I have my doubts over them winning this game.
The Wolves have a great side who can't defencd,I watched an earlier game in the season where they defended their hearts out and won and yet every other game I have seen since then they have looked nothing like that again,but if you are looking at individual players to make a difference in this game then Wolves hold the edge in a big way,Warringto have the services of Morley,Rauhihi,Clarke,King,Gleeson and Monoghan and with those players ibn that siude I really find it hard to discount them especially in a big game as those players mentioned have all had big game experience and after a season of woe could hit their straps in the one game of their season that matters.
Recent Results and the Dragosn have won 4 of the last 7 against the Wolves including the last 3 staright in France.
I am a big beleiver of class coming through when ti counts and this game is no different,the class factor is with the away side and regardless of the result I think there will not be much in this game at all,man for man Wolves are the better side and I expect them to show it...Take Warrington with the 10 on offer...Good Luck.
