I think those odds are very very generous.

There hasn't been much to choose between Saints and the Giants all season and the other two could turn in performances that would be more akin to National League teams on their day.

If Giants win on Sunday I would make them favourites to lift the cup!






Don't die with the music in you!

Huddersfield have NEVER won a big game in the Super League era though. Despite your form and the strength and health of your squad bookies look at past history first and foremost.

I reckon you've got a great chance of not only beating Saints but doing so comfortably. But would anyone be surprised to see Saints outsmart the giddy Giants or for Wigan to beat them at Wembley if they get there?

.........so hammering Leeds at Odsal in the Semi Final in 2006 wasn't a big game then ???
