The Joseph Platt trophy. Odds

[The Art of Hand and Foot]

The 1895 (Joseph Platt trophy) odds. Worth a quid. 

PS. If we keep referring to it as the Joseph Platt trophy, maybe those who are in charge might just take the hint!!!!

Wakefield Trinity	1/4
Oldham RLFC	8/1
Bradford Bulls	12/1
Sheffield Eagles	16/1
Batley Bulldogs	20/1
Barrow Raiders	33/1
Swinton Lions	33/1
York City Knights	50/1

Wow

Can’t believe we are second favourites behind Super League bound Wakefield. People are starting to sit up and take us seriously again.

Still struggling to understand how we can be significantly lower odds than 5 teams from division above. Think those odds are poor

Probably cause half the teams below you aren't even qualified yet.

We aren't qualified yet either - need to beat Hornets. Otherwise each team would have 1 win and I assume it then goes on points difference

It seems very early for such short odds. Whose odds are they?

Mind you it's not often you see a bookie riding a bike.

Trouble with odds in a cup competition is that we could draw Wakefield in the next round.

I think the fact that the media, bookies and the game in general are looking at Oldhams progress is the most pleasing thing in all this.

I'd rather beat them at BP in the earlier knockout rounds and get an easier team for the final at Wembley!

Please no…re renaming trophy. RFL will probably scrap the competition…or if not they would take joes name of the trophy once a deserving ex players name needs a trophy named after him.

I wouldnt trust them with the name of such an honoured individual.

 

How about naming the rugby ground Joe Platt field at Boundary Park. Obviously footy club would want a different name on football days.
