Tips for the 2020 season

Find out just how wide of the mark The Thinker actually was in seasons past.

Round seventeen selections

A win on Thursday night for the table-topping Panthers just about hands them the minor premiership for 2020.

Round sixteen selections

There are still five rounds to play in the regular season so this could be an early crow - but I think our top eight for 2020 are locked in.

Round fifteen selections

We have a coach and a player returning to their bubbles, a coach at home in a bubble of his own, and JKBubble leading our tipping comp.

Round fourteen selections

Round fourteen kicks off with a contest between the two best teams of the past decade.

Round thirteen selections

In round thirteen, a club that has promised so much for so long stands to equal their longest winning streak ever.

Round twelve selections

With four teams in Queensland, and the border into NSW getting shut down again, it's difficult to know where anyone will be living or playing in the weeks ahead. But for now, here are the picks for round twelve.

Round eleven selections

As we slip into the second half of the 2020 season, there is a clear gap emerging between the teams that can and the teams that couldn't possibly.

Round ten selections

Nine rounds into the 2020 season, and the three Queensland based teams are equal second last.

Round nine selections

If my tips are right this round (I know), all three Queensland teams will be in the bottom four on the NRL ladder for the first time since...forever.

Round eight selections

It's great too see a Queensland-based team doing so well, and the Sunshine Coast Storm take on the defending premiers to kick start round eight.
