Well Bongser , I salute you ,myself I’m well, for a change it seems things are going good , last year was very difficult for Mrs Caroli and myself but things have improved greatly.
On to the Rugby, at 40 - 0 after 20 minutes I expected a landslide but was disappointed,I never take owt for granted but would never expect you to put your good self in harms way.All a bit of banteranyway good to see you are fine, onwards to Sunday a win by the smallest of margins will do me . Let the games begin as Jigsaw used to say.Lead on.

First game was in 1967, and have been hooked since day 1. Now live in Vancouver, Canada but follow our team any way I can.

Ok, less of this holding back. Hold on to your candle sticks, it’s time to go full Brasso here in Canada. Mrs VL has a soft lint free cloth at the ready. Wanderer here I come !
Oooerr missus.

EVVO’s own highlighting btw. Yup, EVVO, before the first relevant game, so perfectly acceptable as per the rules on Page 61 of this thread. It would seem that you were not the only one to misread the BBQ (Charlie you used the term BBQ on The Bulls’ forum last week – on there it is merely termed “Bonus”). Pretty sure Atomic & Budge were also mis-readers, the former (as there were no DGs in the featured games) would have been closest by doubling his punt. Sorry A, can’t help.
Let’s do the BBQ first. 110 by Bongser's wreckoning (may as well point out my own spelling mistake last week). The self-correcting EVVO closest, just six out (25 points) and just edging out Chayders who was a mere seven away (18 points). Controversy for the last podium place. This outcome is not catered for in the aforementioned rules (lax of B&B). Zools & Bongser were each ten out but in opposite directions – 15 apiece (Rule P applies).
Let’s not faff about, EVVO played an all round blinder. Pokemon (matched by Juanderer – great 0-0 draw for Bolton’s N N N Nineteen year olds this weekend btw), one correct margin (also matched by the same shark - that incidentally notched fifth spot in the BBQ – a winning performance most weeks but not this).
Congrats, EVVO, throwing in your 25 point WWB, your score this week is 195j.
Four canal bhajis (see what Bongser did there?)
Bongser hates Wiggin but will give them their due, they nearly always seem to come good towards the business end of the season (and this round they did win by the correct margin for Bongser on the Wire WPL). Don’t hate Wanderer but he’s doing a Pah!!
J ARTHURS
Wanderer 1,552 JJjjj
Chazzer 1,498 Jjjj
Bongser 1,454 Jjjj
Vandaman 1,427 Jjjj
EVVO 1,392 JJJjjj
Pubbers 1,271 Jjjj
Zools 1,222 JJJjjj
Chayders 1,201 JJjjj
‘Tommers 857 JJJjj
Zillers 217 jj
Time capsules are ticking – Ccup final soon and Leigh just a couple of home games to go. A lot could change.
Puntables out tomorrow (Saturday start). ![]()
Sorry Bongser, but I wish to make an objection As regards BBQ. Your calculation of 110 points for last week appears to be slightly adrift. Now I don’t like to brag , but I do have an A level in Maths with Stats (grade E), and by my calculations the total points in those matches for goals was 112- i.e Salford 20, Wakefield 10, Barrow 20, Batley 6, Featherstone 22, Halifax 14, Rochdale 20. Added together that makes 112 and my self closest by 5. This is absolutely vital for the race for the coveted 7tg place!!!

| No need to apologise, Chayders, you are quite correct (apart from the bit where you said "Now I don't like to brag...." Still recall you doing so on The Bulls forum before our match at Odsal earlier this season). However, Bongser can't argue with a Grade E A Level in Maths with Stats - his own Grade E was in A Level Maths with Mechanics 
His, this time deliberate, mis-spelling of reckless really was a wreck!!
So you gain 7 pts, taken from EVVO (sorry mate - but he is correct), Zools becomes joint second (on the BBQ) with said EVVO, Wanderer extends his lead by 2 pts (sorry Vanners - might take another few rubs of your candlestick) and Bongser loses five. Thine host will edit these into the above.
Hope this correction helps with the battle for "7tg" place. Btw, what grade did you get in typing?  |

It could indeed be argued that Bongser was not clear enough on this EVVO. When he wrote this year’s rules he, like most, thought that Leigh had less of a chance of making the play-offs than did a 99 cone of lasting in hell (very pleased to be wrong in that pred). He therefore dreamt up the Joker system to cater for the 27 Championship games.
Those attending the first game had a Joker to play at a time of their choosing (within said 27 matches). Those taking part every round would earn a further Joker after the 6th, 11th, 16th, 21st, and 26th rounds. The final round allows the playing of the last Joker. Must have been sober when thinking that out! Thought that it almost had a beautiful symmetry to it.
EVVO, you are presently in possession of three Jokers. They need to be played on the last three games or they will be forfeit. Should you punt in both the next two Rounds, you will receive a further Joker that must be played in Round 27 or in will simply evaporate!
SHORT ANSWER:
Play all your Jokers before the end of the regular season.
Hope this helps.

| Whilst on, the Top Five Playoffs will, this season be run as a distinct comp here on WPL. New dabblers welcome but less admin for Bongser than there was in the death throes of last season.
Clean slate, no Jokers, no pokemons (too few ties).
This year’s Grand Champ will be crowned based merely on the 27 game season plus time capsules.
This week’s puntables are to be found on the previous page.
