    For the newcomers.... :D

    The Rothmans Medal will be awarded to the manager whose starting 11 acquires the most Bonus points throughout the entire season. It is only based on your starting 11 each week and there are no double ups for captains. It will span across all 3 Leagues / 24 Teams.

    A bit of history for you non-aussies...... the Rothman's medal was awarded back when all sports were cool in the 70's and 80's to the best and fairest player in the National Rugby League Competition. It was voted on by referress on a 3,2,1 points system for each game and player who polled the most points for the season got the medal. It was abondoned in 1997 when tobacco companies stopped being allowed to sponsor sporting events etc.:(

    For those who get bored easy, or amused even easier, there will be a weekly (or as close to weekly as I can get) update posted here. Level of amusement/ clarity/ spelling/ grammar / general sensemaking varies greatly depending on what time of the night this is written, and how many red wines have been consumed before and during the post writing... :coffee: :)

    There will be a fancy spreadsheet soon and I will post link here.:geek:

    On the grounds that I am winning this thing and I am not the kind of guy who likes to toot his own trumpet :inlove::sneaky: .. I will relinquish the urge to write a elaborate summary here of GW1 events...... oh alright , you got me !! I am just too darn lazy! :eek:

    Here are the results (link to Google Doccy below also) ... print it out and put it on your wall so you can aspire to be as good as me one day ! ( I tried to insert a funny emoji here but my computer is being a shithead so I cannot.. and Race 1 at Randwick is about to start so gotta go get my bet on)

    Good luck y'all in GW 2

    When considering this week's scores, be advised that you'll need to not count the 1 bonus point for James for Locomotiv Lewisham due to James being on the team due to an uncorrected illegal transfer.

    When considering this weeks scores be advised ... that you haven't considered any scores since the Champions League qualifiers started back in June!

    Think that's the Dr's way of saying "Muppet won" as he would be very reluctant to admit it ....... backed up by there being no facts available to deny my claim !!

    This is the most time consuming competition. At least in the Boot the number of teams to check scores on dwindles not here. Plus, I have some idea who scored and assisted. Just a few scoring errors quick to be uncovered. This one takes true Endeavor. Good luck!
