Right first time 1,916 Report post Posted May 10, 2018 Wishing the very best of luck to 'The Rubiks' and 'The Dark Horses' in the Grand Final this Saturday. Given that 'The Rubiks' got up to beat my team last Saturday, and 'The Dark Horses' didn't get close, I'm picking 'The Rubiks' to take out the Championship Title. Given that my bro Geoff is a vital cog in 'The Rubiks' machine, I'm picking 'The Rubiks' to take out the Championship Title. If anyone in the Final is struggling to find something to pick in any race - - - Howie's tip is take number '6' - - - you'll get a nice return. And number '8' will win at least one race, maybe more. All the best, Finalists. mooseman and Cubes 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cubes 1,770 Report post Posted May 10, 2018 Tarquin , who is Cubes' mate and also the Dean of Mathematics at the University of Hokitika , reckons the result will be 3 - 2 . He hasn't calculated which team is the home team however . Mrs Cubes , who is Cubes' wife , reckons the result will be that more jobs get done around the farm after 16 weeks of getting behindness on the chores from The Cubemeister .

skelly 53 Report post Posted May 11, 2018 And so it comes to this... the final roll of the dice. Unfortunately, of all weeks, I've had to pick pretty much blind. It's a method which went very badly a few weeks back, so advantage to Cubes. Now that I've deftly taken control of underdog status, here's some picks... R1 - 1,9 R2 - 1,6 R3 - 3,5 R4 - 2,7 BB R5 - 6,11 R6 - 2,5 R7 - 8,12 R8 - 1,3 R9 - 1,12 BB R10 - 3,13 Good luck to Cubes, thanks for administering the competition PJ, and c'mon the Dark Horses!
