[uvelocity]

lock me in for game two and all games in the future

 

[howardj]

Would give it all back for a Qld win

 

[Mister Wright]

Still looking for new participants if anyone's interested. Obviously with QLD not finalising their side yet I can't do the selections, but as soon as it is finalised I'll do my best to get the selections up.

 

[Coronis]

i'd love to be in it for this and game 3 (the dead rubber)

 

[Mister Wright]

Alright...

With 12 players I added NSW & QLD penalty as a scoring option to even things out.

The reason there are numbers in brackets beside player's names or on their own is because I just don't know the final QLD side. I will update if it is released and I have time to do it before the game. Otherwise it is the jersey number, not the player that you end up with. As QLD will be the only team to score I'm sure this will become a problem.

Here are your selections for game 2:

Forumer			Selection 1			Selection 2		Selection 3
	
Mister Wright		Lewis				QLD Penalty		Tamou
dermo			Smith (9)			(15)			Tupou
Riggins			Myles (10)			Watmough		HOdges (4)
BoyBrumby		Farah				Reynolds		Woods
morgieb			Gillett (13)			Bird			Hodkinson
Ausage			Tate (5)			Merrin			Hopoate
howardj			Thurston (6)			Gallen			Cherry-Evans/Hunt (7)
dontcloseyoureyes	M. Scott (8)			Thaiday (12)		B. Scott 
Burgey			(16)				(17)			Hayne
ripper868		N.S.W. Penalty			Jennings		(14)
BackFootPunch		Dugan				Guerra (11)		Inglis (3)
Cronis			Hoffman				Slater (1)		Boyd (2)

 

[Mister Wright]

No clear favourite. Perhaps BFP & Cronis could claim slight favouritism.

Are you kidding? I got stuck with two queenslanders.

 

[ripper868]

NSW Penalty and Jennings a fair shout. NSW often take an easy 2 early on.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Jeez what a draw/

 

[Mister Wright]

Jeez what a draw/

Thaiday was last year's game 2 first try scorer.

[Mister Wright]

At least I got something out of the series!

 

[Mister Wright]

Sorry mate. I'll make sure I get you in for the next game.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Thaiday was last year's game 2 first try scorer.

So close haha.

 

[Mister Wright]

So close haha.

Yeah, should have been given a try.

 

[Mister Wright]

There's no such thing as a dead rubber in this comp. Here are the selections for tonight.

Please note that a penalty try trumps the player who was in the act of scoring.

Forumer			Selection 1			Selection 2				Selection 3
	
Mister Wright		Thurston			Merrin					Hoffman
dermo			Lewis				Myles					Tupou
Riggins			Taylor				Gillett					Boyd
BoyBrumby		Thaiday				Cordner					Hayne
morgieb			Cronk				Gallen					Chambers
Ausage			Farah				N.S.W. Penalty				Scott
howardj			Dugan				QLD Field Goal/Penalty Try		Smith
dontcloseyoureyes	Hodkinson 			Reynolds				Parker
Burgey			Woods				Hodges					N.S.W. Field Goal/Penalty Try
ripper868		Tamou				Morris					Cherry-Evans
BackFootPunch		Lillyman			Inglis					Draw/No Score (at 80 mins)
Cronis			QLD Penalty			Te'o					Guerra
uvelocity		McManus				Bird					Slater

Good luck!

Cheers once again Kyle for running this. Unlike Jono with his turgid attempts at running the AFL tipping comp, you actually do it properly and have a decent crack at it. Kudos.

 

[howardj]

Likewise, good job running this

 

[Mister Wright]

Cheers...
