You state as fact that it's 50/50. The fact that we're nowhere near equivalent odds to Warrington indicates differently.
When hull were at home to warrington in the league warry were slight favs not 50+pts,when hull went to warry,warry were 1/8 and hull won.Prices are made basically by one mans opinion and bets are laid accordingly,warry are higher in the league so will be favs.I also said that hull v cats last week was 50/50,the bookies made it cats +2,who would have thought,hull would put 50 past them.The previous week hull gave huddersfield 8 on the coupon and hull didnt score 8pts let alone win by 8 and hudders scored 55.On this seaons rugby league I would take bets all day long,its impossible.

Odds are the bookies opinion and you take bets accordingly,would you have backed hull to win at warry,or huddersfield to thrash hull,or hull to thrash cats in the quarters,of course not.
