I'm sure that we all could have done better on the prediction front if only we'd have had at least one kicking boot on and got a bit closer on KR's marvellous attendance stats. Someone that isn't overly complaining is this week's winner Wire n Steel with a legs eleven the rest of us well better luck next week.
