Leigh Centurions • Re: Weekly Prediction League?
ROUNDS TEN & ELEVEN TOGETHER!
Book early as Fred Pontin used to say.
Bongser, last eventide, happened to mention Mary Poppins in The Towers. La Jeunesse was previously unaware that said nanny had returned and enquired,
“Has Julie Andrews got her voice back?” Bongser informed her as to JA’s replacement at which point Natalie took the Saviour’s forename in vain.
“No, Emily Blunt,” rebuked the good Catholic (from the waist upward) Bongser, “The Son of God does not do sequels – well apart from the resurrection!”
All of which brings us nicely to Easter.
GOOD FRIDAY kick off for all fourteen Championship clubs and here are the first Paschal mysteries:
‘Fax YY-XX Bulls
Barrow XX-YY Trannies
Swinny XX-YY ‘Dale
Vikings X-YYY Centurions
Sheffield XX-YY Tools
‘Fev YY- XX York
Dewsbury XX-YY Batley
The same day sees one of Bongser’s daughters get “the key to the door” hence him getting all this in early.
Monday sees another seven sets of predables:
Tools XX-YY ‘Fax
Batley XX-YY Swinny
Bulls XX-YY Barrow
Fev XX-YY Trannies
Leythe XXX-Y Dewsbury
‘Dale XX-YY Sheff
York XX- Chemics (the sequel with Julie Andrews suspendered)
Both Rounds will see a “weekly” winner’s bonus but there will be only one BBQ (THAT YOU WILL ALREADY HAVE ANSWERED MERELY BY PREDICTING THE SCORELINES OF ALL 14 MATCHES!!!!). GP scoring on the total number of points for all 14 (ties will be allowed this week, as will cravats and Leythe scarves).
The points from the BBQ will be added to the scores from both rounds (barring their own WWBs) for a further bonus of 25.
It’ll be Easter folks and so we’re going to gorge on chocolate this week. Eggs symbolise Jesus “hatching” from the tomb but we are going to immure some more time capsules. A third of the regular season has elapsed and things are starting to take shape, so Bongser asks you again (but for less points as promised in the rules on Page 61) to predict:
a)What position in the table will Leigh occupy after the Championship games (25 pts)?
b)What will be the TOTAL home attendance in their Championship games (Double Grand Prix)?
c)How many IN GAME points will they score in those games (Double Grand Prix scoring again)?
d)Which team will win the Challenge Cup (50 pts)?
e)Which team will win the Grand Final (50 pts)?
f)Who will be Man of Steel 2019 (80 pts)?
g) Which team will slip out of SL at the end of the season? (25 pts)
As a further Easter Egg from Bongser (and with only a few hours until the release of the climactic (six episode) season of Game of Thrones), for a winner takes all bonus of a mere five points, how many episodes will Bongser’s avatar survive. Seven (single-occupancy) slots available 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. Only answers posted before Ser Jorah pops his clogs (or not) will count.
As ever, Good Luck!
