So the 2 Prediction Semi-finals are

Highbury Rhino (1st) v Broad Ings Warrior (4th)
Sarahgrhino (2nd) v Rhino46 (3rd)

A reminder of the rules for 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.

If this is also equal, the player who finished higher in the regular season will proceed in the competition.

The winner of the Prediction Competition Grand Final will win a 2017 Rhinos home shirt.

This week matches are

Warrington (WAR) v St Helens (STH)
Wigan (WIG) v Hull FC (HFC)

Please send your predictions to me by Private Message before the kick-off of the Warrington v St Helens game (8pm on Thursday)

Corrected - drawback of using last year's post at same stage as a template.

The competition has never been restricted to just Rhinos fans (not since it stopped being link to the player sponsorship).
