Sharks vs Roosters

The 3 Saturday games are a bit difficult IMO, Tigers will put in a good showing at the SCG I think. I'm tipping Warriors who are playing for their season to have a big game. Also decided to pick Sharks; if I was winning by 1 I probably wouldn't have, but I just think they match up quite well against Roosters, especially in the forwards and even on the bench with LOD suspended.

We should add some strategy and include joker rounds next season.
What's a joker round? I'd be interested in ways the league could be spiced up in 2014 if others were keen.

A few friends of mine have a challenge concept in their league. Basically you can challenge any other member once a season when your team plays their team, and that match is worth 5 points for either player. Sounds interesting but would seriously disadvantage guys like Burgey or Uv. Perhaps a restriction on having to be within three positions of the team you're challenging?

Joker round is where you nominate, in advance, one round for which you get double points (so instead of one point for each correct tip in that round, you get two points)

You can nominate any round, but only one round out of the 26

So, you look for a round where there's a lot of one-sided contests...and hope to hell that they turn out that way

I was involved in a tipping competition once where you scored 2 points for a win, 1 point for a loss. You didn't have to pick in every game, though we made it that you must pick in half or more of the matches per round. The ladder seemed to chop and change quite frequently.

Raiders is a bit of a WTF call, but the voodoo around sacked coaches is big, many teams win the game after their coach is sacked.

A quick word from our sponsors:

There's a new round of the really rather spiffing NRL Last Man Standing competition starting this weekend. Why not prove what a big man you are and join in?

Linky.

As you were...
