Ill discipline, complacency, bad attitude, bad day at the office, the Tony Smith effect whatever the reason it simply isn't good enough!!! One poster who will happily put up with it this week is Gallanteer, a visitor from KR who managed to snaffle top prediction points to go with their team's victory, proper rubbing our P&B noses in it (you're welcome any time on our board and in the comp btw) with a hard earned dozen, the rest of us trailed in as follows,

Two points and move on is pretty much all that can be said about our game against Wakefield it was a strange game and as a few posters have said and my neighbouring speccie Clare on the SW40 also remarked that the second half lasted about three hours definitely two hours and twenty minutes too long and not just for the thousands that travelled from the Rhubarb triangle as their heroes crumbled.

I know he won't mind m saying this but it's usually a bad day at the office when a particular poster comes up trumps and this week is another case in point as 'Prediction' Matt bags top spot with 8 he's joined at the top by vigilant Wire Weaver who realised that both Coote and UR dropped one, (so the 7 and 8 kick predictions have gone up or down by 2 apologies for the confusion) the rest of us pattonesque in our predicting missing a point or more as follows,

Think I've been missed off this week.

Yer but no but...apologies your points 7 were awarded in Standings but not in the Results as typed (only on UR's 'fag packet'), now corrected.

Hi UR.
There were actually 8 goals kicked - 3 conversions, 4 penalties and 1 drop goal.
Think you may need to revise the points awarded for those who have been given points for 7 goals, sorry.
I need 2 more points for 8 goals. thanks.

No worries and thanks for spotting WW

I think I got 6 this week, not 7 please knock a point off my total.

Cheers CW8 amended think it was a Wakefield error

Did I not get a singular point for Hull winning?

Your score went up from 151 to 152 so your total is correct but for some inexplicable reason (watching back episodes of Early Doors whilst marking) you didn't 'make' it onto the results bit from my envelope

Almost as pleasing as the game itself is the fact that this week's winner actually won predicting a Wire Win as for most of the marking this week it looked like a joint win for a trio that had predicted a defeat for the P&B but a first try time of 7 minutes...you know who you are ha ha

This week's winner was pretty much the last post, without blowing his trumpet he is Leigh's busiest man and a welcome visitor it's Jorah Mormant AKA Bent & Bongser who sits on top of the Prediction Iron Throne this week with 11 points.

I have returned from my ill timed holiday and watched the Challenge Cup on the I player this morning and I must say how brilliant was that...thoroughly enjoyable a complete team performance made even sweeter with Peacock's pre match prediction and McManus's post match reaction (the clue is in both surnames).

I hope that Moving On had a few pennies on Clark for Lance Todd as he will have to be satisfied with one lot of bonus ten points like the rest of us that predicted a Wire win. Apologies to Wire n Steel, we have two Clark's but no Clarke I'd have given it on an initial for the first name but non specific and misspelled is a step too far even, though I think that the Prediction collective would have thought you meant Daryl.
