A question for Graham.  WRT Home and Away teams.  Am I correct in assuming that the fixtures listing of matches will ALWAYS have the "Home" team listed/shown first?   Your little note about "Home" teams in your question 3 confuses me.    Thanks in advance.  Also, great job Graham.

Short answer is yes, the first team in the fixture is taken as the home team. This also applies if the game is on the road I.e. played on a neutral ground somewhere. The first team name in such a game  counts as the home team. 👍

Whew....I'm so glad.  This is convoluted enough for this Canuck to think through since I'm just starting to follow the NRL.  Thanks again Graham.

Summary of our results for NRL Round 2 Tipping Competition:

Congratulations to our top scorers:R L Winger, Dee Deuce and Red Rooster all with 7/8 correct predictions.

If there are equal top scorers the Champion Tipster award for the week goes to the top scorer whose points total prediction is closest to the actual points total. Hence this week our Champion Tipster is Dee DEuce who was closest to the total (+22)
