Ja also thing the Eng - Oz game will be a cracker, backed the Poms for that one!

 

[AlienTaker]

I hate Australians and i have English Citizen ship so Go Pommies!!!!!

 

[Mister 44]

My predictions for the first round:

Jap vs NZ
Honestly? This is just going to be the plot from Godzilla all over again. NZ by 54 points.

Eng vs Aus
I put down the Poms by 12, but I think the game will be tougher than that. Try and penalty late in the second half to the Poms to skew the result somewhat.

Canada vs NZ Maori
I have no idea how strong the Moari team is so this is pure guess work: NZ by 22.

Guys I don't understand superbru.
Is it like D&D for rugby?

For all sport, not just rugby. And not really like D&D, that would be a fantasy league, I guess.
You just predict who will a match and by how many points/goals/runs. The closer you are, the better you score. At the end of a tournament, the guys with the most points get gold, silver and bronze medals. You don't win anything, it's just for bragging rights.
For example: for the rugby match Saturday between New Zealand and Japan, I predicted that New Zealand will win by 54 points.
And for tomorrow's cricket game between the Titans and Dolphins, I picked the Dolphins to win by either 13 runs or 3 wickets.

 

[Piesank]

Guys I don't understand superbru.
Is it like D&D for rugby?

Nope, you can say which team you think will win during a game and by how much.

So say you think team A will win by 7 points you submit it and after the match points get awarded based on your pick.

If team B wins then you zero points.

If team A wins by 1-2 or 12 and more you get one point

If team A wins within a spread of 5 points up and 5 points down of your pick you get 0.5 bonus points.

If your pick is the closest to the actual result in your pool you will get an additional bonus point.

My mistake. I copied it from the other thread and it copied wrong. Give me 5 minutes and I'll quickly fix it.

Half Time

AB 28 - Japan 6

I have AB's by 23 so I think I might be out, unless the Brave Blossoms can stage a one for me one for you type deal!

 

[Solitude]

Oh man, almost got that bonus point. Iceman got it spot on though. It was a nice game to watch and it really looks like Japan has improved over the last while.

 

[Piesank]

Full Time

AB 54 - Japan 6

Ja was just reading about Japan and how they have done under Eddie Jones (who I rate as a coach) and read that he suffered a stroke and is on a break during the November internationals.

Well done to those that got Margins and Iceman with the spot on [-]thumbsuck[/-] pick!

 

[Solitude]

Whew, the England game officiating was bad! Some horrible mistakes by the assistant referees and the tv referee.

Posted about it here: http://www.planetrugby.com/story/0,25883,16024_9004823,00.html

Shocking!
