[Johnners]

sooooo, can i tip the teams that have a bye ??

If not, i guess i'll take Wests, Knights won't win without Kidley, Mullen, Buderus or Simpson....

 

[magpie_man]

I would've gone Wests btw, for those who are interested.

Yeah, the plucky little Eagles getting up against the 'Roos. Who'da thunk it?

"Pretty much" is a generality, usually implies that I wasn't encompassing all of the games, just most.

Eels

I thought that i can tip even just before the game or something like that. Or have i got it wrong here. Either way to be on the safe side of things i would love to go with Penrith.

 

[speirz]

Knights

Well now i am out

 

[Mister Wright]

Bit nervous this week tbh. One of the toughest tipping rounds yet. And no team is a certainty (if there is such a thing in rugby league).

 

[Magrat Garlick]

What happens in event of match rained off?

 

[Fiery]

^ Still standing I guess

 

[Mister Wright]

What happens in event of match rained off?

Can't ever remember that happening. If it has it's extremely rare. I think the only time a match would be 'cancelled' would be due to hail. They pretty much play in all conditions even snow.

 

[Johnners]

they Knights/Tigers game is a chance of being called off due to the poor condition of the stadium and it's surroundings (due to the weather) or something like that

What happens in event of match rained off?

Unless it's the last game of the round I guess you could tip one of the others.
