2017 SBru Mitre10 (NZ) Cup - round 6: Theo Vodkat leads
I found this is a difficult one, but interesting ... two conferences with teams playing between conferences ...
9 weeks competition followed by Semi Final / Finals (11 weeks in total).
Wikipedia covers the format quite well (I've just discovered) here : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015_ITM_Cup.
All comers welcome ... not easy, but interesting ... gives you a heads up on the talent we only get to hear about in the Rugby World Cup or internationals. I've set up a FISO League ...

ITM Cup also looking good ...
Asdral225 (PacificNationsCup Prediction Champ 2015 and therefore with Southern Hempisphere form) takes an early lead ...
wk2: Trampie and McBear show they mean business ...
wk1: Strong starts from Asdral225, Metal Warlord and Stokie Bloke

Re: 2015 SBru ITM (NZ) Cup - asdral225 takes an early lead
week 3 provides good showing from McBear and Metal Warlord, both of whom pick up 2 bonus points each from guessing the highest margins of victory (well, 3 of the 4 bonus points anyway) ... interesting ...
with the small number of fixtures each week these margin points and bonus points are vital ...
McBear, Asdral225 and Metal Warlord are dominating these points so far, but its tight at the top between these three ...

Re: 2015 SBru ITM (NZ) Cup - tight at the top ... MetalWarlord leads
week 5 Yellow cap goes to Stokie Bloke and its tight at the top with three within 1.50 of each other. Stokie Bloke's good week helps him close the gap on these three.
The leaderboard analysis makes interesting reading ... the top 3 have good Win Points (27+) but what really seems to make the difference is the Bonus Points. Stokie Bloke has almost double anybody else (11) and anybody 4th or lower has less than 3 Bonus Points ...
So getting the margin points is important, but not nearly as important as the Bonus Points (nearest guess).

Re: 2015 SBru ITM (NZ) Cup - still tight at the top ...
week10 - Semi Finals has McBear sneak back in front of Metal Warlord again ....
but with only one round (Finals) remaining, its all down to picking the margin (assuming y'all guess the winner)
and if form is anything to go by it might be worth noting that
Metal Warlord has scored more Margin Points than McBear
meanwhile, asdral225 hopes to hang onto his podium spot,
but Stokie Bloke is not finished yet, with another Yellow Cap to his name and a storming performance in the penultimate week ...

Re: 2016 SBru ITM/Mitre10 (NZ) Cup - week 8 is Asdral's yellow cap
week 8 was Asdral225's pleasure. Asdral225 is probably trying to nick the 3rd place podium spot from MickMacP and best of luck to him, but there is no medal for 3rd in SuperBru when the league is this small so its all just a matter of honour & Mick won't give it up easily ...
No change in Leadership with Trampie beginning to look secure as we near the end of this comp ...

2016 SBru ITM/Mitre10 (NZ) Cup - Winner: TRAMPIE
Well, although this sounds like repeating myself a bit ... The Semi-Final and Finals produced no major surprises, and TRAMPIE romped home in this competition too, making it a clean sweep of the THREE Southern Hemisphere competitions by Trampie. Hat off to you, mate ... we are going to have to make sure that never happens again
The previous holder MetalWarlord was unable to close the gap from second place, but picked up a respectable silver medal for his efforts. MickMacP in third place gets no medal (in SuperBru) because the group was too small.
So yet another Trophy goes to TRAMPIE, CONGRATS!!
Roll on 2017 & the defence of three titles !!
