Well another defeat and it looks like the international break might be coming at the right time for the Wire as we can hopefully reset. Everyone's favourite bathroom accessory rubber duckie top scored this week with 13 points the rest of us hope that our bubbles have burst as follows

Back to winning ways and to the top of Super League and we still want more it seems. Perhaps we should remember where we were last year and of course the proper coronation isn't until October..let's hope it's right up our street and we are a collective of ex moaners.



Douglas Black and Builth Wells Wire are this week's Kings of the comp making the rest of us look like proper Charlies as follows,

Another decent win against the Dragons away in France, the players must take a lot of credit for coming out on top in a close contest it was certainly no banker. Talking of credit, the aptly named Douglas Black topped up his Prediction Comp account by 21 points this week he's on a roll. The rest of us well we will have to do better next week as follows,

We didn't really get out of the blocks against a Leigh side full of guys with something to prove aided and abetted by others assembled by Lam into a well balanced team....they are certainly no mugs nor hard of hearing it seems. No disrespect but you know it's a bad day at the Prediction Comp Office when Matt is our chart topper. He is joined at the top of the hit parade by CW8 and Builth Wells Wire whilst the rest of us were off tune as follows

In most walks of life, they say that you have to speculate to accumulate and I think that the common consensus is that we should have accumulated more in the first half when were on top. So it falls on the aptly named The Speculator to accumulate the most this week whilst the rest of us need to pull our rabbits out of our collective hats next week as follows,

Back to winning ways, a result that keeps us well placed in the top echelons of SL despite our best efforts and some odd decisions encouraging the opposition. Someone who doesn't need any encouragement this week is Builth Wells Wire who top scored with 14 points. The rest of us need an arm round the shoulder/kick up the booty as apprpropriate and as follows,

Whilst quite a few predicted a loss few can presumably have thought they'd be picking up Prediction points when Wigan were reduced to 12 men......butt then again.



Our top scorer this week is CW8 and for the rest of well like coach Powell we'll be hoping for better things next week as follows

Our chief weapon is surprise, surprise ad fear, fear and surprise. Our two weapons are fear and surprise and ruthless efficiency. Our three weapons are fear and surprise and ruthless efficency and an almost fanatical dedication to a passive defensive line and using the other weapons on ourselves.



Top points this week go to Defender of the Faith Dita's Slot Meter whilst the rest of us will be hoping for a change of fortunes sooner rather than later as follows

Another week and another substandard performance (BOOOOO that'll learn you). Now that I've got that off my virtual chest, I can also report that Dita's Slot Meter again hit top spot aided by (I think) the first 10 points correct Wire Score as part of their 21pt haul. For the rest of us we need to contemplate our navels in the Coach's Box (spare bedroom) for a bit before facing our Aintie Rico's and hatching a better plan for next week as follows,

I understand that the forum is a 'hung parliament' on the acceptability of accepting a loss coupled with an improvement in application BUT we've had worse days....



Bolton's finest Wanderer pipped our collective's maths champ and time traveler MorePlaymakersNeeded to top spot this week with 15 hard earned. The rest of us need to up our game next week as do thge guys on the pitch...



There's a few lucky posters this week as I've gone with Hull FC when cited as Hull and I trust there would have been no dramas should KR have nabbed the points.
