As tozz seems to have abandoned his followers and I have a bit of time on my hands I thought I'd do the honours.

No-one went for Parra, so a full-house eludes us all, but ripper came the closest by getting everything else right for a thoroughly decent 7/8. Creditable 6s for Vimes & myself to keep up a strong European challenge. Less impressive 2s for Clapham & altoz himself. No tips from cameeel so he gets the week's lowest score too.

AFL - Week 2 (2 Points)

Erm, much as I don't wanna blow my own chances with this thing...Didn't the Bulldogs defeat Newcastle?

Curse my honesty.

Ah, fudgsicles. I'd better re-check everyone's score.

EDIT: Pretty sure that was the only error. Kudos to ripper for the honesty. Revised scores:

No-one went for Parra at all and the best score for the round are creditable 6s for ripper, Vimes & myself. Less impressive 2s for Clapham & altoz himself. No tips from cameeel so he gets the week's lowest score too.

Really hope Saints don't go out in straight sets. This was supposed to be their year.

Thought I'd do the honours as it's Sunday morning and I'm bored; apologies to tozz for the presumption.

Fairly impressive scoring on the whole. No fewer than six full-houses. No tips from Mitchell or cameeel so they get the week's lowest, which is Smitteh's 6 after he gamely tipped an upset in the Cats/Pies game.

His full house means last year's champ, Norway's very own Samuel Vimes, once again leads the way. A maximum also for ripper moves him into second and yet another full-house moves morgieb level on points with me, but I remain a bonus to the good. Cameeel props us all up.

Bonuses also to Simon, Jono & pasag.
