Another season, another Prediction Competition

[uPrediction Competition 2024 Rules[/u

Predictions will be made for the 27 weeks of Superleague matches.

Predictions should be made before the first game of the weekend kicks off, any predictions made after this will only score for any games that haven't started at the time of posting.

As there is golden point in all games this year, the prediction for all games (including playoffs) will be the score after 80 minutes.

Correctly predict a draw: 5 points
Correctly predict the right winning team and the right margin: 3 points
Correctly predict the right winning team, but not the right margin: 1 point
Anything else: 0 points

The top 6 scorers at the end of the regular season (after 27 weeks) will be eligible for the end of season play-off prediction competition.

In the event of 2 players tying on points at the end of the regular season, the criteria for breaking the tie will be the person who has predicted the most scores exactly correct during the season.
In the event of 2 players still being tied, then the player who has had the smallest combined margin in error throughout the season will progress.

[uRules for play-off competition[/u
The play off system will mirror the structure of the play-offs (ie the 2 people finishing first and second in the prediction table will get a bye in the first week of the play offs)

The usual scoring system will apply but in the event of 2 players scoring an equal amount of points, the tie-breaker will be the player with the smallest combined margin of error over the week's play-off games (the score at 80 minutes being the one used)

If this is also equal, the player who finished higher in the regular season will proceed in the competition (the only exception to this will be in the Prediction Grand Final - if both players make the same prediction for the one game, a tie break question will be asked)

The winner of the Prediction Competition Grand Final will win a 2025 Rhinos home shirt.
