******* WELCOME *******
to our NRL Round 12 tipping competition.
Everyone reading this is welcome to enter.
Round 12 consists of seven matches.
It's the turn of Warriors and Sharks to sit this one out.



Entries are allowed each week up until the kick off of the first game in the round
The first game this round is on Friday 25th May.

ROUND 12 QUESTIONS:
*Poll Competition:
There were plenty of very close games in R11. Let's see if we can find any close calls this week..
Which game will produce the closest result of the round?
- enter in the poll itself at the top and put your answer in your posting.
The poll is anonymous so we can't give you credit unless it is in your predictions post.
Now for the main event of the week:
*Match Tipping Competition:
Name the 7 (that's SEVEN) winning teams in NRL Round 12 2012
*Points Competition
How many points will be scored by all the teams added together in R12?
This is a competition in itself and will act as a tie breaker for the match tipping comp if necessary. This is used as the decider when necessary so do give it a go.
*Away Win Competition:
How many AWAY wins will there be in NRL R12 2012?
There was only the one last weekend, will they be rare or commonplace in R12? You decide
In rounds where the game is on the road and played at a neutral venue, the team named first in the fixture will be regarded as the home team for the purposes of this competition.

Fixtures:



Animated awards will be given for the winner(s) of each competition question.
Match tipping scores are added together to produce the Tipsters' Ladder which is pinned to the top of the forum topic list page.
The best of luck to everyone.
Enjoy your Rugby League!

Soon be kick off in the Friday night games.
Looking forward to watching the Rabbitohs v Raiders match.
Hopefully will be keeping an eye on the Storm game too.

[G Las D]

Huge stadium in Sydney for this Rab/rai clash
A decent crowd will look lost here.

[G Las D]

Raiders without Dugan and Ferguson.
there's a 6 foot 6 debutant stepping up. Should be interesting.
rabbits strong favourites in betting.

Spoiler

Rabbitohs 36 - 18 Raiders
Storm 34 - 10 Broncos
Knights 14 - 24 Titans
Dragons 14 - 12 Eels

One or two big named players seem to have piled on the pounds.
E.g. Jamal Idris is fair bursting our of his playing jersey
