******* WELCOME *******
to this week's R19 tipping competition
If you are reading this is you are welcome to enter.
There's a full set of eight games this week.
No team is having a bye.



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 13th July

ROUND 19 QUESTIONS:
*Poll Competition:
How many teams will score 30 points or more in NRL Round 19?
We had plenty of high scoring teams last weekend so let's see if we can spot high scorers in this set of fixtures.
- 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 8 (that's EIGHT) winning teams in NRL Round 19 2012
*Points Competition
How many points will be scored by all the teams added together in R19?
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.
*Home Win Competition:
How many HOME wins will there be in NRL R19 2012?

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!

So close. 2 tries to the Warriors 1 to the Broncos. Unfortunately we couldn't kick the goals.

[JimBronco]

I believe there were a total of 272 points scored in this round and I went for 280 points. Ooooh, so close.

Forgot there is still the Sydney clash tomorrow.

The Roosters v Rabbitohs game was a real thriller.
If you haven't seen it yet then it's something to set some quality time aside for.

Outstanding match!

"Luckily" my boiler broker last night so had to stay at home this morning waiting for the engineer to come fix it (I rent so it wont cost me anything!). But it meant I got to watch the match and Im very glad I did! Just a fantastic game from the first minute to the last!

[G Las D]

I was all set to say well played to the team that eventually lost thinking they'd played the better footy and were going to win!

This first of two rivalry rounds has proved how good the NRL is as a league.
As it turned out there only really seemed to be one game that worked out as predictable by a decent margin.
The others were either very close calls or decent margins going against recent form.
All in all a difficult round for tipping but one that tells you how good the NRL is for us fans and followers.

Sorry to hear about your broken boiler, but, as they say, every cloud has a silver lining!

Roll on Rivalry Round 2 (Round 20) - Tipsters, prepare to be challenged!
