JP , the flaw in the system is obvious (and spotted easily by Clobs!).
If you persist with asking for only 8 predictions from a possible 11
per week then anyone with half a brain will not predict the outcome of
the games when the big guns are matched up.
Why not insist on predictions for all
the matches in the 1st phase , that strikes me as the only way to get
through to the super 8 stages without most of the lads on 100% !
You can revert to the old system in the super 8's if you
so wish. Up to you though , I'll post mine when I see your response.
(If it remains unchanged I'll just copy and paste Clobs's!)

I'm going to have to stick with what I went with - I mistakenly thought eight would mean you wouldn't be able to pick just the mismatches. At least the second week is slightly harder.

bet on these results!
