The play off system will mirror the structure of the play-offs (ie the 2 people finishing first and second in the prediction table will get a bye in the first week of the play offs)
The usual scoring system will apply but in the event of 2 players scoring an equal amount of points, the tie-breaker will be the player with the smallest combined margin of error over the week's play-off games (the score at 80 minutes being the one used)
If this is also equal, the player who finished higher in the regular season will proceed in the competition (the only exception to this will be in the Prediction Grand Final - if both players make the same prediction for the one game, a tie break question will be asked)
The winner of the Prediction Competition Grand Final will win a 2024 Rhinos home shirt.
Week One Cokey and Rixy have byes to week two.
Elimination Semi-finals The Biffs Back (3rd) v Steamy (6th) Rotherhamrhino (4th) v BRK (5th)
This week's matches Hull KR (HKR) v Leigh (LEI) St Helens (STH) v Warrington (WAR)
Predictions to be made before the first game of the round starts (Friday 29th September at 8pm).
Please send your predictions my private message to me
Good luck and thank you everyone for playing this year

Thank you for running this, it's been fun. I'm sure I'd have scored a lot higher if I'd have gone with my head rather than my heart where the Rhinos have been concerned. Never expected to be in the play offs, let alone get a bye for the first round, so I'll be happy even if I progress no further.
Once again thanks for running this and good luck to all the finalists.

I made the play-offs for the first time ever!
PM with my predictions on it's way.
I have a spreadsheet recording how people have done and who made the playoffs since I started running the Prediction Competition (which scarily is way back in 2012) and you actually made the playoffs back in 2013 (but went out in the first round).
