In previous years many participants pledged to donate €20 to a chosen charity of the winner. Wexford Marine Watch, Down Syndrome Ireland and Inner City Helping Homeless (ICHH) received the winnings in previous seasons. So I'm happy to pledge €20 again this season!

I'm in. The key to winning this league is to enter predictions every week.

Cheers for joining adrian and alchemist.

Keep them coming!

Indeed. Making your predictions at 8pm on a Sunday doesn't help!

thomond2006 · 01-09-2019 10:59pm

You're in SFC. That makes five. Keep them coming!

Knex* · 02-09-2019 4:00pm

The_Honeybadger · 04-09-2019 12:41pm

Signed up as well and no bother with the pledge

baby and crumble · 04-09-2019 12:59pm

I'm going to bow out this year folks, got some stuff going on personally and i just don't have the time or wherewithal. Best of luck though!

04-09-2019 2:45pm

Signed up and will pledge. Go easy on me, my first attempt at something like this.

tripperman · 04-09-2019 3:23pm

Yeah I'll join this and happy to donate to charity

phatkev · 04-09-2019 6:54pm

Back in this year

ScrubsfanChris · 04-09-2019 10:32pm

Just made my picks becasue I know dam well I'll just forget tomorrow :P

thomond2006 · 05-09-2019 2:24pm

All approved. Up to 26, that's a sizeable increase on previous years. Hopefully we'll have a good haul for the winner's charity.

Don't forget it all starts tonight!

Sorry to hear it man. Best of luck with whatever it is you're going through.

ScrubsfanChris · 10-09-2019 11:16am

Holy sh*t batman!

Tied for first with 13/16, now watch it all fall apart next week

Realalemadrid · 10-09-2019 11:45am

Predicted a tie between Colts and Bolts - Gutted!

11-11-2019 1:48pm

Actually really enjoying this, it's a great way to keep an interest in each of the games every week and to try to remain informed of each team's form etc.

Of course, I would say that the weekend I go top of the league, easy to be positive when you're doing well. :pac:

The_Honeybadger · 12-11-2019 12:21pm

Enjoy this too. I’m a respectable 90/58 on the season but lack of additional points for predicting margins of victory has me in the mid teens on the leaderboard.

thomond2006 · 12-11-2019 2:13pm

3-10 in Week 10.

Same here. Got a good win/loss record but the bonus points for score predictions are killing me :pac:

Podge_irl · 13-11-2019 2:35pm

I have the (joint) most correct predictions and the lowest TDM somehow, but yeah the margins are where I'm falling down.

19-11-2019 12:44pm

After last night's matches, I just copped that I'm up to 2nd in Ireland:eek:

The country leaderboards don't factor in the bonus points as they differ depending on who else gets predictions correct in your pool obviously. Alchemist is 2nd in our pool / 3rd in Ireland while Tripper is 6th in both as all others between 2nd and 6th have better bonus points than him/her.

Fair play that’s some good picking

$hifty has a 10 point lead with three weeks left.

09-01-2020 1:01pm

Regained the top spot in Ireland after losing it a few weeks ago. Just outside top 50 in the world after a bit of a horror show a couple of weeks ago. I'm also second in one of the random pools that I joined at the start for the craic.......your man ahead of me is first in the world.

alchemist33 · 09-01-2020 1:47pm

I was only four points behind a week or two ago, but you made some bold moves, going for a lot of away teams, last week and it paid off. With our pool practically won, hopefully you get best in Ireland or even better!

Edit: hadn't realised I was 3rd in Ireland at one stage. Jaysus

Podge_irl · 09-01-2020 2:20pm

4 from 4 last weekend is pretty impressive.

You're currently 4th.

@Podge: Had a feeling the Pats weren't gonna do the job. Going for all 4 home teams this week.

thomond2006 · 13-01-2020 10:40am

$hifty now leading by 12.

Realalemadrid · 13-01-2020 4:29pm

3rd in both this pool and Ireland - anything for a podium finish?

Only got one post-season result wrong out of ten (feckin Ravens), which sees me nearly 14pts clear at the top of the Boards pool. I'm 1.75pts clear of the 2nd placed Irish team, so simply picking the winner in the big game should hopefully see me top that league as well........also into the top 32 in the world, with a chance of top 15 if I can get the margin of victory correct (so 49ers to win by 10 :pac:)

At the start, I said I was gonna pick dogs trust as my charity, then changed it to Temple St and hummed and hawed over the two of them.

So, tell you what.........I'm gonna throw them each a tenner anyway. For anyone that pledged a donation, just send your €20 to whoever you would have picked had you won, and that'll do me. Might do more good if its spread around anyway.

Cheers for organising this Thomond, can't believe I did so well in the end.

thomond2006 · 20-01-2020 4:50pm

Well done $hifty! A very impressive season.

If you're happy with a donation to everyone's personal charity that sounds good.

My screenshot will follow later.

Knex* · 20-01-2020 5:01pm

Fair play Shifty! Went with Temple st myself.

Well done $hifty - Donation Done. Roll on the XFL pick-em.

alchemist33 · 04-02-2020 1:15pm

Congratulations $hifty on a comprehensive win. And I'm very happy with my 2nd place.

I went Temple St too; screenshot attached

thomond2006 · 04-03-2020 4:35pm

Apologies all, I only just realised I never sent a donation.
