i dont think anyone would have predicted those 3 correctly

I had Harlequins and Salford down on my handicap but I really didn't think Celtic would turn Bradford over away from home.

All due respect to them though fantastic result.

Nice to see Celtic get there first win, and Salford winning

I like all those results and it is great to see Celtic post their first win. I think this win should have come much sooner for Celtic because they looked like they had real potential at the outset of the season. However, they were then hit by injuries to so many of their main players. Without depth in the squad they really struggled. Now that all but Duggan is back (I think) and they've had time to adjust to the pace of SL, it was only a matter of who they were going to beat, not whether they were going to beat anyone. I wouldn't be surprised if they got a few more notches on their sticks before the season is out.

I risked a bet on Celtic at 7:1,

Trouble is I'm last of the big spenders and only put one pound on.

I'm kicking myself now

Crazy weekends results. Was it the rain ? Is it a more competitive comp? Was it to many RL players hung over from celebrating Man U winning another premiership comp?

Nice one celtic, coem a long way since that famous 4 - 0 drubbing at the hands of the mighty st helens rlfc at the infamous fortress that is "the brewery field" .

Its like the NRL but with more skill on show, and less beaches. Can any of the teams below us string together a good winning streak though, you see us pick up a string of wins and drop say 4 or 5 in a full season, can the others get that winning streak going or will they bomb it every 4 games or so.

Best superleague ever FACT ( Eddie Hemmings fact )

One thing I did notice among all the celebrations (except in Bradford, obviously) was that according to Chris Irvine on his Times blog, the best player on the park today was our very own Matty Smith. Good on ya Matty!
