TRF's Super 15 prediction: THE PLAY OFFS

[Bogdam]

Reds 17 (2) - Crusaders 20 (2)

davies - guilford

 

[Gavin]

Reds 24 (2) - (2) 27 Crusaders

Genia - Carter

 

[Amobokoboko]

What little final?

I thought the Blues and Stormers would play another game to see who would end up third.
But never mind, I thought it would be the same as during a RWC. My bad

 

[Shaggy]

Reds 25 (3) - (3) 28 Crusaders

Ioane - Maitland

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

Reds (2) 17 - 20 (2) Crusaders
Higginbothom - SBW

 

[Darwin]

Reds 18 (2) - Crusaders 31 (3)

Rod Davies / Zac Guildford

 

[Draggs]

24 (3) Reds - Crusaders (3) 30

Tries: Rod Davies and Sean Maitland

 

[Darwin]

If my calculations are correct (and they seldom are) it looks like Olly has come up from behind (typical Englishman) to take the win!

Hey guys!

First of all a big thanks to all that have played this and made this a success! In the end, Olyy came out of nowhere to snatch the win! His prediction skills will be there to be challenged later this year!

I hope you guys will all sign up for my next prediction game... I am going to do a...... TRI NATIONS VERSION!!!!!!!!!!!!


To everyone, I want to say thanks.



Amobokoboko,

You Belgian rugby buff. Despite being a Chiefs fan, and sticking to it, it was nice having you with us in the game. 24 points in Round 17 were your highlight of the Prediction season. Let's hope you do better in the next game, and may the Chiefs recover from their slump. Sonny Bill Williams joining is massive. The loss of Muliaina however is huge. Good luck! Bedankt voor het meespelen!

TNT88,

Never knew what your name represents but well done to you as well this season. A 4th place, with a total of 310 points is something to be proud of. As is the win over the Brumbies and scoring 30 points against a strong Crusaders team. Round 7, with 28 points, was your moment of glory. Too bad Gavin scored 4 points more that week. Typical Force

Gavin,

You jack-in-a-box! How did you do it? You scored a massive 46 points in the final week! You guessed 2 try scorers, giving you 40 points with the double-up! The thing I will remember the most, is you giving me the predictions for several weeks and scoring 32 points in 1 of those weeks! Never knew Nostradamus had anchestry in Ireland! Congrats on winning the Magners League with Münster by the way!

Shaggy,

You needed 20 points to make the 300-point barrier. The only thing you guessed, was a try scorer, giving you... Yes, 20 points! Great job on getting so far and reaching that mile-stone. Round 5 and Round 6 were your strong weeks, scoring 24 and 23 points... Both highscores for the week! Keep an eye on Ryan Nugent-Hopkins by the way. You know who I am talking about

BadGena,

Despite missing some rounds, you still did pretty good! With 21 points in Round 9, you had your only 20+ score. Sounds bad, but it isn't. Having 10 rounds with at least 15 points is what helped you to stay up there on the log! Good job. Too bad the Stormers were missing out on a consecutive Super Rugby final, but hey... There is still the Currie Cup! Ek hoop jy het dit geniet saam met stormer2010

stormer2010,

I always liked your name. Not because it is about the Stormers, but because it's about the Stormers' most disappointing year With 4 scores of 20+, you had your moments. For weeks you were close to catching up with the guys topping the log, but in the end, you fell behind. No worries! You were one of the most consistent participants. Baie dankie vir die inspanning!

lucky number 7,

First of all, congrats on your team winning the Heineken Cup. It was a heart-breaking match. Highlight in the prediction, was Round 16 for you. 21 points! Hope to see you having more luck in the RWC-edition, but I would love to have you on-board for the Tri-Nations!

Draggs,

You fellow-Sharks fan! Week 12 was your best one! 32 points got you going, but in the end, 12 points short of the 300-mark! The highest score though of people below that line. Newport might not have the best of seasons and Wales will be eliminated at the RWC group stages, but you still have the Sharks! A Currie Cup win in 2011 will make up for it.

Bogdam,

I really admire the fact you came into the game halfway through the season. Your first week was your best! 25 points was your highest score this season. What would have happened if you would have started from the beginning? We will never know but next year, I hope you prove to be the best Romanian Super Rugby predictor haha. Multumesc pentru joc şi sper că va plăcut

darwin_23,

You've been a top predictor and would have deserved the win in the end. You can be proud of your predictions. I hope you join me later this month in the Tri-Nations version. A guy like you is a true asset for a game like this. Too bad your Highlanders team didn't make the Super Rugby play offs. Let's hope the new kit does wonders for them! Your biggest score came in Round 15, when you got to 26 points!




And finally, the winner! From Aberystwyth, a Sharks fan (despite it being Sale Sharks, still awesome) called Olyy. For some time he was topping the log, until he fell behind in Round 13, with only 3 points, followed by 9 points a week later. You started coming back in Round 17, getting a massive amount of 37 points, being the top score, until Gavin gave it all in the final week! With 22 points you overtook the lead from me and darwin_23, who scored not even 10 points (6 for me, 8 for darwin_23). You honestly deserved the win. You are an amazing predictor and in the end, I am happy you got back to the top 3.


I hope you enjoyed it, and hope to see you back here the 23rd, when the Tri Nations starts and we will be in a new prediction league! Keep an eye on that section! I will send you a PM at the time.

Thanks for the comp. Sorry for being absent in the finals. i've been on holiday, spewing i didn't get on here in time for the finals. Back home the day before the Tri-Nations. Should be great to get back into posting.
