If you see any mistakes please let me know.

ShamoBuc, myself, Agus and feargale all got the replay result pretty much spot on.
Miccoli failed to make a prediction for the game so scored nothing. Nonetheless, he finishes top of the table a point ahead of ShamoBuc and myself. But it will make it a little more interesting when calculating the initial predictions made all the way back in April. I'll get cracking on those scores now.

Munster Champion: Cork
Leinster Champion: Kilkenny
Liam McCarthy relegation: London
Christy Ring Champion: Kildare

Nicky Rackard Champion: Tyrone

Nicky Rackard relegation: Sligo
Lory Meagher Champion: Longford

Maybe Miccoli knew he'd run away with it and didn't predict the replay result....
Anyway, Miccoli is this year's Hurling Championship pools champion with 128 points. After finishing a single point ahead of myself and ShamoBuc after the season finished yesterday, Miccoli then stormed away with a massive 12 points from his initial predictions to finish 6 points ahead of second place. Miccoli joint top scored in the initial predictions along with patmac, feargale and padd b1975.
Second place, with 122 points, goes to our NHL pools champion Agus who sneaked past myself and ShamoBuc thanks to 10 points in the initial predictions.
A further point back lies myself and ShamoBuc in joint third place.

So thanks to the people who stuck with the rather haphazard hurling pools this season. Come back in February when the 2015 NHL pools competition will be getting up and running again.

ShamoBuc

Very happy with joint 3rd, many thanks Hammer for all the great work throughout the year!

Congrats to Miccoli and well done to HA for finding the time to do this.

A very enjoyable and increasingly popular competition, some very accurate forecasts all the way through as well.
