Hi Bob thanks for organising this. I assume Fev game is considered void.

I assume Fev game is considered void.
Yes mate. I see the RFL have said they're going to replace all the Fev fixtures lost by teams with new games.
I've made a slight change to the scoring while I figure out how they do it (e.g. Will they add Batley's lost fixture into this round when it's played or add it to the round it's played in..... or just don't include it in any round 😱 )
So, in the interim it'll be 2 bonus points for nine correct predictions and one for eight. If the RFL subsequently add Batley's game to this round I'll go back to 2 bonus points for 10 correct and 1 for 9. Simple!!
oldham, barrow, midland, fax, hunslet, keighley, london, swinton, sheff
