Wakefield -30.5 v Barrow 3pts@1.9 with centrebet

I've received the Barrow team and they have a few injury problems with Bower, McDermott, Hughes and Raftery out and Finch cup-tied. Their bench is very weak and includes kids who aren't even up to National League 2 standard at the moment and they are thrown in against a Super League outfit. Wakefield have Drew and Sculthorpe returning and they are very much an in-form team. They put 50pts on Castleford last week and with the sun shining and the ground firm it will be a very big ask for Barrow to compete. They have their eye on the league campaign and I expect their better players to be withdrawn if the going gets tough and so enter the kids. Originally I had my mark around the 30pts offered but the team news changes things...
