2008 Tipping...rd 12 VERY EARLY SUMMARY

This is an early, early summary based on Wirral Mean Time. There
are lots more tips to come, but I got to get a shift on if I'm to get
to HJ to shout 'Come on u Saints' or 'Forward!' or 'Offside!' or
'That was never a try, u nice Mr Referee!!' It could be Warrington's
night tonight, though the tips say they got no chance!!

Struth!

Still trying to get my breath back...and I wasn`t even AT Warrington
tonight!

For sheer excitement and atmosphere, that was one of the best
games I`ve watched for a long time...certainly this season anyway.

In the other game tonight, Hull KR battled back to within two
points of Leeds, before losing out to two late tries.

With both games going according to the majority of tips, and
a good few correct margins, it looks like the improvement in
the weather is giving not just better pitches, but improved
scoring in the tipping comp!

God...did I really write that?????

Saints v Wire
It was worth the years Sky subscription for this one match.

It was only at the end when I realised one of the reasons for the enjoyment.

There was no Stevo wittering like an old washer women,
He would have sworn blind that Penny's try should have been allowed due to
the momentum rulebeing 2 yards forward.

Rusty

Two VERY close games again tonight...but both went the
way of the majority of tips, so this continues to be a high-
scoring round.

Toytown is out in front, so far, on an impressive 15 points
with Ian Stewart on 14 points....but there`s loads of 13`s
and 12`s, so maybe Craig`s record score of 19, for this
season is about to be smashed........maybe!
