Here is the page for the competition run by our buddy 'a'.
Hopefully he will drop in and remind us of the rules, but from memory you have to pick one team each round (to win) and it's a race to ten successful picks. If you get a game wrong that's a strike, and if you get three strikes you are out of the competition.
And another twist. If you have tipped a team and they've won a game you aren't able to tip that team again. It sounds easy, but it isn't.
Results after round fourteen
Eleven points and 2 strikes (teams in brackets after your name cannot be selected again)
Tigerholic (Tigers, Broncos, Sea Eagles, Raiders, Panthers, Cowboys, Sharks, Storm, Warriors, Dragons, Dolphins)
MGM (Tigers, Broncos, Sea Eagles, Storm, Sharks, Warriors, Bulldogs, Raiders, Knights, Dragons, Panthers)
Footy Chick (Sea Eagles, Broncos, Storm, Sharks, Warriors, Tigers, Panthers, Raiders, Eels, Cowboys, Dolphins)
Three strikes and out of the comp

The Prize
The greatest mind in rugby league will generously donate the prize for The A Game in 2025.
A prize of $50 is available to the tipster who can get to ten. There can only be one winner, and if there happens to be more than one of you, we will add some sort of knockout element at that point to determine a winner.
Thanks Thinker. Gee, you're a good egg. Go shout yourself a beer after lunch today.
Note: for those of you overseas (more of you than most would think), that prize is in Australian dollars (or equivalent). We'll cross that currency bridge if/when we need to.

Morning All
Seems to be some hesitation in my two opponents in the "a" game.
Or is it tactics?
Anyway, good luck to MGM and Footy Chick this week.
I'll take the bulldogs please "a".

Tiger, the only tactic I have is to wait for any late mail or team changes. That broken thumb of Sam Walker made me think of changing but I'll stick with the Roosters for round 15 please a.
Good luck Footy Chick and Tigerholic .

Just saw your comment BigPete.
Thanks for looking out for me mate (I would have happily taken those Bulldogs if they were an option though, haha).

Not a prob with The Mechanics. I guess Belmore would be closer on this occasion. Good luck.
Quite a few players will be playing extra hard this round, to still prove their worth for State of Origins.
Keep well - BigPete in Bx
