        I'll accept that as your second change.
        Cheers AJ . Transfer definitely sent during an elevated state as we know. Well deciphered . 3rd one will be straightforward I promise

          EPL bottom of table change to Brighton please(oversight at the time with Fulham).

          UK championship to Judd Trump too

          Happy for that to be all my transfers in light of my Cricket faux pas

            Murdrum = brady for anyone who doesn't read the BBV. I'll update the spreadsheet so as to eliminate any confusion.

            Not at all, a few people made similar mistakes and were fixed up at/before the start. You will still have a change left to use when you want.

              Next up is the Darts Premier League, finishing on Thursday. MVG (mdoug, luckforsome, Murdrum), Rob Cross (limpwhacker, RichieM) and Daryl Gurney (Flushdraw, 5starpool) all have some chance of points but nothing guaranteed.

                              Ouch, I didn't know that was on today.
                              Was feeling quite confident about the Monaghan pick what with Tyrone and Donegal being on the other side of the draw. Hopefully Fermanagh knock them both out now and zero the event.

                                Me too. They were shocking. Worst I've seen from them in 5 years. Fuckers will still make the last 8 through the back door.

                                                  Soz, can't allow this one as deadline passed last evening and I've rejected similar late changes from kev and SP earlier in the year.
                                                  Part of the game to get changes in on time whilst also leaving it as late as possible for max info.

                                                    Ah, my fault - did not see he deadline was yesterday for the derby.

                                                      Derby up next on Saturday afternoon. Lots of changes made with doubts over Too Darn Hot.
                                                      This is where everyone ended up I think. Let me know if I missed your change.

                                                            Horse Racing - Derby.

                                                            1sr. Anthony van Dyck. 4 points - no-one.
                                                            2nd. Madhmoon. 2 points - mdoug, Murdrum.
                                                            3rd. Japan. 1 point - no-one.

                                                            Broome 4th and Sir Dragonet 5th in a close race for the places. Bangkok 12th with Telecaster last. Magna Greca and Too Darn Hot non-runners.

                                                            Decent result for limpwhacker who kept his five point lead despite 10 change chips being used.

                                                                Selections for remaining events.


                                                                Rugby League
                                                                Table after 16 of 29 regular season games.
                                                                Leeds (Strewelpeter) and Wigan (limpwhacker, Flushdraw) are going to need a good finish to the season to make the play-offs (top 5). Warrington (shrapnel) look good in second place whilst St Helens (everyone else) lead the way. Helens blew up last year in the semi-finals, but the playoff format is much more favourable for the regular season winners this year. The league leaders will get two chances, both at home, to make the final.

                                                                Aussie Rules
                                                                Exactly half way through the regular season. Table here.
                                                                Richmond (11 picks) are in the top 8 without playing well. Collingwood (limpwhacker, RichieM, shrapnel) going fine in 3rd spot. Geelong (mdoug) have been the best team and lead the way. Looks like Sydney Swans (6starpool) aren't going to make the top 8 playoffs.

                                                                Baseball
                                                                ~60 of 162 regular season games done. Boston, Houston, NY Yankees, LA Dodgers and Chicago Cubs are our picks - LA (pokerhand), Yankees (Lao Lao, luckforsome) and Houston (RichieM, shrapnel, AJ, bluezar, 6starpool, Kev, premierstone) all going really well. Boston the only disappointment so far but that can change quickly in such a long format.

                                                                Ulster Football.
                                                                Huge game next Saturday when Donegal (4 picks) go up against Tyrone (7 picks) in the semi-final. Losers leave with nothing, winners guaranteed 2 points and will be odds-on favs to make it 4 points. Monaghan (5 picks inc leader limpwhacker) already eliminated so a big chance for people to cut his lead.

                                                                Tennis French Open
                                                                Serena (luckforsome, KevIrl, Murdrum, Lao Lao) already eliminated, as is Murguruza (6starpool). Just leaves Sloane Stephens (premierstone) who is safely into quarter finals, and Simona Halep (everyone else) who is into the last 16. Opposite side of the draw to Stephens.

                                                                    Rugby League
                                                                    Table after 16 of 29 regular season games.
                                                                    Leeds (Strewelpeter) and Wigan (limpwhacker, Flushdraw) are going to need a good finish to the season to make the play-offs (top 5). Warrington (shrapnel) look good in second place whilst St Helens (everyone else) lead the way. Helens blew up last year in the semi-finals, but the playoff format is much more favourable for the regular season winners this year. The league leaders will get two chances, both at home, to make the final.

                                                                    Aussie Rules

                                                                    Richmond (11 picks) are in the top 8 without playing well. Collingwood (limpwhacker, RichieM, shrapnel) going fine in 3rd spot. Geelong (mdoug) have been the best team and lead the way. Looks like Sydney Swans (6starpool) aren't going to make the top 8 playoffs.

                                                                    Baseball

Boston, Houston, NY Yankees, LA Dodgers and Chicago Cubs are our picks - LA (pokerhand), Yankees (Lao Lao, luckforsome) and Houston (RichieM, shrapnel, AJ, bluezar, 6starpool, Kev, premierstone) all going really well. Boston the only disappointment so far but that can change quickly in such a long format.

                                                                    Ulster Football.

Losers leave with nothing, winners guaranteed 2 points and will be odds-on favs to make it 4 points. Monaghan (5 picks inc leader limpwhacker) already eliminated so a big chance for people to cut his lead.

                                                                    Tennis French Open

Just leaves Sloane Stephens (premierstone) who is safely into quarter finals, and Simona Halep (everyone else) who is into the last 16. Opposite side of the draw to Stephens.
                                                                    Limpwhacker guaranteed not to get trip... A lock for 4th imo

                                                                                                                    But yeah, Dumoulin is a non-runner. There may be a lesson in there about waiting until closer to the deadline for max info, but my lips are sealed.

                                                                                                                        Just to clarify the scoring/rules of this one in advance.

                                                                                                                        Only the 9 selected players above count - whoever lasts longest gets 4 points for everyone who selected him/her, 2 points for second longest.

                                                                                                                        I'm only going to use the following to separate players.
                                                                                                                        a) official placing within the money.
                                                                                                                        b) Day of Elimination where Day 2A = Day 2B etc.

                                                                                                                        I'm not going to use time of elimination or hand number as there are staggered breaks and hand number is fairly unreliable.

                                                                                                                        Finally to have any chance of scoring points you must at least reach Day 2 (this is just to avoid a stupid 8-way tie for second place if only one selection makes Day 2).

                                                                                                                        Hopefully Flushdraw will be around to let me know when there is a result or eliminations etc. Or anyone else who follows it feel free to do so.
