NRL Season Quirky Questions!
Hi guys, here is a comp where I'll be offering a Mad Barry pick which will expire three months after the NRL season concludes as well as one million ASRL dollars to the winner. All you need to do is get the most questions correct from the 2022 NRL season. Some questions are straight forward, some are quirky. All stats will be based from nrl.com. The competition closes on the 16th of March at 10pm.....no late predictions will be accepted. You can post predictions before then and edit your answers BEFORE the deadline.
Note: IF a question is settled before the deadline, I will give every coach that point regardless of if you edited your answer before the submission deadline or not. For example, the Warriors question that I mentioned could well be settled by the end of the first round if an Australian scores. In that case, I'd award all competitors that point.
Good luck!

Is there a prize? A Mad barry pickup at any time within 3 months of winning would be sweet? If the winner wanted to sell this he would get a pretty penny as well I suspect.

The results are IN.
Huge congrats to Mack for winning the comp in an absolute landslide. He gets 1 million ASRL dollars AND a free Mad Barry pick to use anytime within three months from now. Well done!!!
LEADERBOARD
Mack: 29 points Matt: 23 points (Cannot give Q5...two teams which gives you more chance of getting the right answer...you got one right, one wrong. I gave you Q6 though because you names two teams and they both missed the 8. Bill: 22 points Roger: 21 points

Adelaide will use their free Mad Barry to pick up Lewis Murphy. Wakefield winger who looks extremely good. This year was his rookie year. 19 games 17 tries 20 clean breaks 62 tackle breaks 88 tackles 26 missed so around that 80% mark which is decent for a winger. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAmqAEzy02IBloke is a spectacular finisher and has speed to burn. Also an excellent cover defender.
