    From Lloyd Barkham@24:150/2 to rec.sport.rugby.league on Mon Nov 30 10:29:09 2020
    This unprecedented season threw up one more twist with the Grand Final
    being decided in the very last seconds after the hooter had sounded with
    an incredible try from the youngest player on the pitch. Congratulations
    to St helens but you have to feel for Wigan too.

    In the Tipping Competition our final **Tipster of the Week** with 14
    points (with double points) is Who Ate All The Pies. In joint 2nd were
    Bull L and Gordon Murray with 10 points.

    Thanks Lloyd for keeping things running and making sense of this
    chaotic season. Congratulations too for demonstrating to the rest of
    us how to tip effectively. Your tipster of the year position is well
    deserved.

    Cheers,

    Many thanks for keeping this going, Lloyd, and congratulations.
    I'm still trying to recover from Friday night! What a match and, for a
    few of us, what an ending. Just wow!
    Here's to March, and whatever 2021 holds (hopefully a massively
    successful world cup)

    Cheers Lloyd!

    Glad to see you take full advantage while I rested this season!

    Heh, I even played with Madge, letting him get oh so close to
    me in the table, before finally showing him the real me.

    Oh what fun

    :-)
