Me as well. I'm not even sure what sport this is, let alone know which teams to support! wink

  • All out, all change! Not one player stayed where they were last week.

  • har28low tipped the Cowboys to beat Brisbane, in Brisbane, and deservedly got himself a HoF AND the outright lead.

  • There was an outbreak of Spoonitis, spread across all ranks, with seven players only scoring 3/8.

  • Apologies for the late posting of this, and other results. I am having problems with my ISP.

    The left hand columns refer to your position this week (TW) and last week (LW). Hi-lo is your highest position/lowest position in the comp so far.

    The right hand columns refer to the current week's scoring and last weeks total score, giving a cumulative score for the life of the comp.

    HF = Hall of Fame- the highest weekly score(s)
    WS = Wall of Shame - the lowest weekly score(s)- aka the Spoon.

  • A couple of upset losses and some hard-to-pick rounds saw some low scores in the tipping department. Only two players managed to beat 50/50, with Davjack and illiniman14 both picking 5/8.

  • Quite a few got 4/8, with the rest of us spooning in at 3/8.

    I think that's Super XV, MrFox, although, you probably deserve two points for picking our team.

  • Souths beat Canterbury, and only BxBarracuda saw that coming. Cronulla held St George scoreless for the first time since 1973, in another sorta upset. The unpredictable Sharks have now won four straight.

  • ozzz2002 jagged 7/8 to join the leaders, and LeoDaVinci, MrFox and Howie72 added to their cutlery collections.

  • Only two people retained their position from last week, and one of them is our leader, MikeMaster who is beating off challenges from all directions. Sypher picked 7/8 to jump back into equal first.

  • Tailenders paper_aero and Howie72 also tipped well and are closing the gap.

  • Spoons were reluctantly accepted by illiniman14, FussBudget, Eraserhead and MrFox.

  • And the first perfect score bonus point of the season goes to... drum roll.... Copago! She jumped from obscurity to 11th, only five points off the pace.

  • har28low had a bit of a Barry Crocker and dropped eight spots.

  • Sypher has the top spot to himself, but there is still a long way to go.

    If MrFox had four, wouldn't he also get a Spoon? Although I've never heard of Barry Crocker, I have heard of Betty Crocker...

    Oops. MrFox was a no-show, so got default of 4.

    A 'Barry Crocker' is rhyming slang for 'shocker'- not a good thing. Barry Crocker is an Australian entertainer, and I do not think he bakes cakes...

    But the thought of Barry Crocker and Betty Crocker together has given me the giggles .. perhaps they were neighbours .... and became gooooood friends?

  • Last week we picked 90 winners- this week it was a pitiful 42. Three big upsets made sure that there were no perfect scores.

  • Cronulla defeated Melbourne by two and are this year's surprise packet. Gold Coast were second last and beat the Doggies, in Sydney, and probably the most astounding result was Penrith pipping St George.

  • As can be imagined, there were a lot of spoons handed out, and even the HoF awards were only 4/7.

  • Only five games this weeekend because of the midweek State of Origin, but still lots of movement in the ladder.

  • George95 picked the card and gets a bonus point. He has raced up into a share of the lead with Sypher. Not to be outdone, paper_aero also got 5/5 and is now in third, only two off the pace.

  • In a wide range of scores, ozzz2002 only managed one win and dropped to fifth.

  • There were two big upsets, which is usual at State of Origin time. Eight players picked 5/7 to get a HoF.

  • BxBarracuda and Davjack scored 3/7 and took the spoons.
