Just thought what if a side wins and someone is outside the 50pt margin
eg..jake went 66pts margin on Wigan and though as i write their 22pts in front if they had won say by 10pts he would be on -6pts which you obviously you cant award.
Certainly not a good day for rules

Good Luck with that one...

Perhaps i should have put a cap on it or extended it to 60pts but that seemed a bit much.
Hopefully it will work out

Hopefully there wont be any 50+ victories after the first round

(Didn't cross my mind when I was predicting Wigan to win by 58)

I have Bradford to win by 56 tomorrow.....

What does the guy on the prediction games site do ?

I'd be happy to follow those guidelines

They award 25pts for a winner if the difference comes out of the 50pt zone.

That cannot be right. By that theory somebody being 80 points out would get more points than somebody being 26 points out

Must admit i thought that.He even does it for AFL where you can get freaky wide margins sometimes.
I wont implement that here.
Im keeping my fingers crossed it doesnt come to that where someone is so far out.
Thinking cap on i think for a solution just in case

So its better to be further out than nearer ??? Just make it one point if 50 points or more out.

Yeah its a funny one...Agree 1pt is better.
Should have done my previous Rugby rules where its the person with the overall lowest score combined that wins.
So if you picked a 5pt difference and it was say 65pts then your on 60.
If you went for a 10pt difference and they lost by 10pts then your on 20.
Think it worked well last time.
