One that got away, but, not a big surprise against St Helens hopefully we will make up for it this weekend (fingers and toes crossed). Back from a short break in an Algarvian dark room and a barrel of Mateues Rose following a Totally Wicked night out to prediction 'business' so sorry for the delay in posting the scores on the doors which are as follows,

Following last week's performance could it get any more dramatic? Well hell yeah Double Prediction Points AND rubber duckies picks didn't stick, let's hope he's not lost his betting slip.

No one got near the score (or unfortunately the crowd) but the two that made the most of rd's absence were eddieH and Rugby who both amassed 22 points the rest of us relatively let our pal off the hook by varying degrees as follows,

Apologies folks I went to bed last night and realised a bit like the ex mayor that I had undervalued George King. He was worth 12 prediction points to matt6169 who's total is therefore this week's winner with 18.

Sorry KLW and HTW for the false hope (typically Wire) you've had to lose 10 bonus pojnts

Well done "matt6169" for having George King as the last try scorer. It's a bit like "Duckies nailed on signings". Eventually one will come true if you keep saying the same thing.
