Cool, will do tomorrow!

While I'm at it, WR lists an Elgon Cup fixture for June 10th. Is this men's?

While I'm at it, WR lists an Elgon Cup fixture for June 10th. Is this men's?

Yes, it's men's XVs rugby. The equivalent of the bledisloe cup between the Aussies and N.Z, only this time it's between Kenya and Uganda and it has gotten full

accreditation from WR to be a full test match. Kindly include it in the tip.

[vis maior Profile]

not sure if including games with clubs is a good idea...:-/

[dwpeate Profile]

Hi vis - I didn't include them initially because of them including clubs - but these aren't usual club games. I hope we can all enjoy the exception that is the Lions tour!

[dwpeate Profile]

Fixtures uploaded for the next month.

Times might not be correct on the Africa 1B, 1C and second leg of US/Canada game, and also the NACRA final.

Will upload the rest of Africa 1A, Oceania Cup and Rugby Championship etc in a few weeks. I think we have enough to be busy with for now

[dwpeate Profile]

If anyone spots any games that I have missed let me know... possible ecuador/guatemala?

[dwpeate Profile]

Guys, I clicked to delete the USA and Bermuda game but somehow the caymans And Mexico game has disappeared instead. I'm really sorry! I don't know if there's anyway of recovering the old entry? Really sorry if anyone predicted the result margin or exact score.

[dwpeate Profile]

Damn!!! Irelands late try denies me 3 points and I called 30-16 for the lions game!!! Need to catch the top guys ...

[RugInt Profile Website]

Two drawn games in one weekend. Rare just to get one. Not to mention that it buggers up most predictions

[dwpeate Profile]

And another with the Lions!

All known fixtures between now and the Rugby Champ uploaded, apart from the two TBD fixtures of Africa 1B

Are we going to have the WRWC matches to tip on?

[dwpeate Profile]

As far as I know the competition only concerns the men's XVs. Perhaps we could see about a women's one at some point?

[iul Profile]

The last time there was a WRWC we just put the games up on the same sheets, created a different category for them so we can see who was the best for the WRWC tipping competition and then deleted the games after the competition, so it wouldn't affect the rankings for the main competition

I see that roonba lists SWE v DEN on the 24th as a training match. Should this be included?

[RugInt Profile Website]

If its a training match anything could happen-4 quarters, unlimited subs-not a test match

not a good season this summer for me, some little trouble, many distractions, and so on…

I completely overlooked tipping this weekend. Too many distractions It looks like I'm joint last of the serious regulars

It appears we have only about 7-8 serious punters left. Why is that?

[RugInt Profile Website]

Armchair Fan got a 5 pointer!! That is a rare achievement. Well done. Ding-dong battle at the top.

It must be the first time a Spaniard celebrates a Gibraltar win.
