So I need to make 20+ points better than Gwath and Nilp on the last rounds... not to mention keeping Boro et al. behind me. Well, that's a challenge to be sure.

The only way is to go for a surprise somewhere. Maybe Agamemnon scores a hat-trick if I wish it enough?

My predictions are so terribly and atrociously off this year, I doubt you'll have to worry about keeping me at bay.

Says someone who is the fourth in the game as is...


Well, my advice is as I'm giving myself: go for the unexpected. Otherwise there is no chance to gain on the leaders...

Still three.

It will go to four once we're down to only four squads remaining.
