39 points.... one of my better weeks.... still frigging miles off teh pace

But as Clay said last week "At least the Canes are rockin'" (bet he starts supporting ACT, if they start winning)

mr selfdestruct · 10th May 2009, 15:14

'at least the canes are rocking' my ass. Hurricanes starts with H, so does HUMILIATION. Chiefs Rule and so does Sloppynez! Waaaaahoo!!!!

caffiend · 10th May 2009, 23:09

OK - somebody has to take this ^ motherfucker down. Probably not going to be me after missing picks for a round (curse you, stupid memory)... but preferably a Hurricanes supporter.

How did that work out with the Chiefs BC?

I was so close to getting everything right, Force losing by 1 point foiled me.

Only one full round robin week to catch me lads, after that there's only a maximum of 24 points up for grabs.

ZeroBC · 11th May 2009, 13:03

I'm gunning for those 3 upsets, now or never

backed ACT last night

*sigh*

Claymore · 16th May 2009, 17:08

tsk tsk Rincey !

I'll give the chiefs their due, they are playing a good all round game at the moment. But I'm still picking em to fall over at the final hurdle

caffiend · 17th May 2009, 00:11

Forgot picks.... again

Rince · 17th May 2009, 09:21

damn drop kicks!

also, damn bulls!

(I went for the upsets)

Thanks for coming everyone it's been fun. Good luck in the battle for 2nd place guys

ZeroBC · 17th May 2009, 11:45

What a week for the conservatives, my punts failed by 5, 2, 6 and 1 points which will seal a slippery slide in to mid table oblivion

All wins by less than 10 points yeah?

ZeroBC · 18th May 2009, 03:58

well there's that and the 4 upsets I was banking on never came.

BoyWonder · 18th May 2009, 10:32

Well done mr selfdestruct

Also - Bad Company - 56 points! nice way to finish

mr selfdestruct · 18th May 2009, 11:23

GG Bad Company perfect week that's outstanding!

I'm withdrawing $800 from the Fox and Hound TAB today, quite the weekend it was

badassmofo · 18th May 2009, 15:26

Cheers guys, but bloody hell, I needed it after the shockers I've had so far. Was doing really well in the first month or so, then the wheels really fell off the wagon!

caffiend · 18th May 2009, 15:33

GG Mr SD, and badassmofo

Do you get extra points for the finals?

mr selfdestruct · 21st May 2009, 09:28

Points are the same for semis/finals.

It's a bloody shame that the Bulls have 35 points over the Chiefs in points diff. I know it's a long shot but if the Chiefs were to win with a bonus point and the Bulls just scraped through against the Crusaders the Cheifs could have a home final but they'll need to beat the Hurricanes by 35! Not likely!

On the flipside, if the Bulls lose, it will be a Wellington or Waikato final which would suit the country nicely I think

Well Done SD on winning this years Virtual Comp!!

I did find it interesting that those near the top supported the Chiefs/Hurricanes. If only my crusaders had won last week :/

However great work!

ZeroBC · 31st May 2009, 12:53

Good work Nez, I enjoyed the ride even though the upsets I banked on didn't swing my way. See you all next year

PhX · 2nd June 2009, 22:54

gg all.

mr selfdestruct · 3rd June 2009, 10:00

Thanks everyone, it was tight as up until rounds 12 and 13 where I only got one game wrong and surged ahead of the pack. I find that's how Virtual Rugby always goes down, someone always pulls off a couple of big weeks right near the end to clinche it and it's very rarely the guy that's winning all season.

My advice to all, whenever a team is away they will lose on average 50% or more of their games, pick which ones they are most likely to lose away carefully.

oOo Dragon oOo · 4th November 2009, 20:13

I know this has pretty much gone under the radar this year. But well done 'otaaaagoooo'

With one game to go and a position of 77 overall, you held a commanding lead. Nice work

fixed_truth · 4th November 2009, 20:40

Cheers. Been not a bad year for stags supporters

mr selfdestruct · 12th November 2009, 09:25

Yeah dude well done you carved up big time this year GG.

crocos · 29th January 2010, 18:33

So who's doing the Virtual Rugby this time around?

Or are we just doing this?

badassmofo · 30th January 2010, 01:14

I've signed up, as always.

Bad Company

Claymore · 30th January 2010, 13:03

I'm in, still associated with the NZG group from last year too.

ClayNZ add away!

Rince · 1st February 2010, 19:24

mr selfdestruct · 9th February 2010, 12:59

xor · 12th February 2010, 12:13

I got the blues to win by 6 against the canes

Rince · 12th February 2010, 12:42

Rince · 13th February 2010, 10:32

man - the "new" interpretations of the rules both suck and blow

bloody difficult to know who was going to get penalised at the breakdown....

And Dickinson missing Piri's 'mark'.... shocker.

still, good to see the canes put together a decent 2nd half.
