I managed to dodge the 27-point bullet which looked quite plausible at half-time.

Well played bluenosey. This one’s for last weekend. And for Brexit :wink:

Johnners gets a big 24 lead in game 1 but Doogal gets an exact pick in game 2.

Johnners leads by 11. Doogal needs France to win by exactly 35.
Well done Johnners. I thought of picking within one point of your picks (i.e. going Ireland 3 England 7 France 27) but that would have been dirty play even though I would probably have won.

You're an honourable opponent, Doogal. Thank you.

Thanks also to murf for organising. I've had a grim fantasy football weekend, so I'm glad I got something right.

Deserved?

Pathetic wimps.

Should be an excellent weekend of rugby but I won't count my chickens. Starting off with a light Italian breakfast to be followed by a Gallic feast. By Sunday lunch I'll know if I can make it to work on Monday.

Got forestfan's by PM.

Think that just leaves Shaggy (and me to edit mine to something sensible (or at least less un-sensible - is that a word? Should be...)

Looks to be all about who wins France v Wales, might be a chance it goes to the wire if game 2 is very tight, like a draw!

The actual margins matter in this one with 3 identical results predicted. Chance of someone opening a 6 pt lead after game 1 and with subsequent picking margins of 2 and 5 this could be nail biting.

France v Wales here as in our first QF. An exact score in match 3 could again just about save someone if match 2 is tight.

What a Gallic Feast and it's only half time. A great match with the crowds singing. Are the French back? The Second half will tell us.

Only you and sportsmeister had le faith.

I'm watching the footie of course. Egg chasing is as appealing as these awful Man Citeh 'fruit salad' shirts. Not going to get much income from selling them to help balance the FFP books.

Scotland win by 17

2UP Rookster v murf
Rooster has Ireland and the draw. I need England to win.

Shaggy365 v Johnners 8UP
With only a 5 point swing possible in final game, Shaggy needs an exact score bonus with England winning by exactly his predicted 12 points

sportsmeister 16UP AND WINS ( v forestfan who can only pull back 15)

As I'm making my egg-chasing debut, there's every chance I'm being a bit thick here, but shouldn't my lead now be 8 instead of 4?

Yep, sorry, I swung the maths the wrong way (I'll blame having to keep scrolling up on my phone to work it all out). Could be crucial as shaggy needs an exact score now.
