WELCOME
Everyone is welcome whether you've entered before or not

The first game is on FRIDAY

FINALS WEEK 2 QUESTIONS:

*Match Tipping Competition
Name the 2 (that's TWO) winning teams in NRL Finals Week 2
*Points Competition 
How many points will be scored by all the teams added together in Week 2 of the Finals?
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.

There's no Home/Away win comp in the Finals Series
