You won't want the point/s then I take it?

I'd sacrifice a point in the prediction competition for 2 points on the SL table tonight.

Just about to start scoring this week's entries and can I just say to:

rhinoms, Sam Buca, mirfieldrhino, billie joes red hair, Glenn Quagmire, Gooner Boy, EmmaMur01, HyperbolicRhino, JMT, ennjay and roger_r

you're all my favourites.

What for i've been awful so far this year

I did warn you

What have(n't) we done?

You (and the others I mentioned) all kept the faith and backed Leeds when I doubt any of you really believed you were doing anything other than sacrificing yet another point in the comp.



If any of you actually thought Leeds had a chance then





I took the middle ground (what I thought was the only sensible option open to me, given that I will never back against Leeds) and tried for a draw.

Anyooo

The Week 9 (SL Round 8 ) results are now in.

This week's Top Tipsters are [size=150deanos rhinos[/size, [size=150Highbury Rhino[/size and [size=150LFCRhino[/size each with an impressive 9

This week's boobie prize belongs to mirfieldrhino with a 2

It's currently a tie for 1st place on the table between [size=150Gotcha [/sizeand [size=150SuperWebb[/size on 50 points.

Assuming they'll be a top eight play-off to decide the Champions, the remaining places are currently occupied by -

LFCRhino (4icon_cool.gif
rhinos69 (4icon_cool.gif
LS16_Rhino (47)
Old Feller (47)
deanos rhinos (46)
LauraLouise (46)


All subject to official confirmation like.

Top eight is sponsors only. In other words, who ever are not sponsors, are playing for fun. Gotcha, SuperWebb, Old Feller, LauraLouise are not.

Right, I didn't realise that. As I said I was assuming on the basis of not following the comp in previous seasons.

Is there a cut-off date before the play-offs commence?

For example what would happen if they were to join the sponsors list now?

Would they be in with all their points intact or have to start affresh from the week they join?

Just curious like.

They would have all their points still and become a sponsored member.

So they could join right up to the end of the regular season (if places remain available) and still qualify for the play-offs? (I hope the likes of Gotcha, SuperWebb, Old Feller, LauraLouise, steve slippery morris and Craigloiner are following this discussion.) 21 places still available www.southstander.com/fusion_page ... page_id=28

Both Hull teams stuff me this week – you can never trust a cod – ed.

Looks good so far, followed by:

FoxyRhino, Rhino46, EmmaMur01, ennjay, SouthStander.com, mirfieldrhino, Gooner Boy, The Biffs Back, rodhutch, tomhutch, HyperbolicRhino, roger_r, =#FF0000tvoc, =#FF0000rhinoms, =#FF0000Frosties, rugbyleague88, Bernadette Gill, Philip Hart

=#FF0000I don't think these three clowns need to worry too much about making the play-offs.



Is Number 2 on the sponsor list?

I havent been told a sponsor number from him or SS.com so I wouldnt expect so.

ss.com is always no.100 (or the highest number)
isnt no.2, no.2?




edit: you dont reach the playoffs in March etc...

Some of us are unlikely to in September either but if you'd seen the number of injuries I've had to cope with this season you'd understand.




I have SS.com as 100 also.

Number 2 on the sponsor list is Adam Anderson, whoever he is.

Honestly, i thought we might nick it, obviosuly not. But still will [unever, ever,[/u back against Leeds.

I'm bothered about my lead getting away from G. Quagmire. Which IIRC, is now 6 points.

I am a one man team, if he gets injured then I don't think i can keep up my early season pace

Changes:

RhinoChris (3 points) - changed on table to 45 points
Gooner Boy taken down to 43 points

=#FF0000This week's error highlighted in red:

Sibbs Rhinos (5 points to 6 points) - moving up to 46 points altogether.

I had a poor Easter break – hopefully will get things back on track this week otherwise it’s the “Wigan Way” for me (start the season well and then slowly slip unnoticed down the table).
