BiblioGryphon has nothing to critique with his unique for Barry Norman.

And why not.

Seems I passed up on a few too many dead certs,thinking they would cark it in Jan-Feb. Stefanson  could still salvage my score though by going in the fall or Nov.-Dec.

I really don't think he'll last the month by the looks of it. Loads of folk have him, I'm dreading him and Reverend Billy going, those are massive updates.

Yeah, I thought SKS would be a decent November-December pick (and thus good money on the Hares Pool) but when pancreatic cancer decides to stick the knife in, you're done, pretty much.

[Joey Russ 7,210]

Gord Downie would be a pretty big update as well. I'm just hoping for the people who are on less teams to cark it so I can have a stronger lead...

Death Impends and drol go head to head with a Smith Hart takedown.

[The Dead Cow 620]

Pete Frates becomes the 4th of my Pete's to peter out and my 8th hit overall, whilst Tobin and Sutcliffe live on.

 

Puts me top of the leaderboard, I believe.

 

Edit: At least, that would be the case were he actually dead.

Not going to pour cold water on that one, you do take the lead for the moment. Captain Chorizo also lifts himself out of the play off position, but puts me right there. Curses!

[YoungWillz 20,914]

Actually, looks like the report may be wrong. https://www.facebook.com/TeamFratetrain/posts/1341022972618741

 

That kind of puts a dampener on things.

Don't know if there are many Rugby Leagues fans here however Brett Kenny has been diagnosed with lymphoma cancer. He is a former Australian, New South Wales and Parramatta player.

So Shaun Of The Dead dropped June Foray from his 2016 team and drol only had her as a reserve. She's a swing and a miss for this pool.

C'mon Widows Peak, then.

Eduardo Del Rio has drawn his last and is a unique hit on this pool.

I'm assuming the 1000 point boundary has officially been broken today? 

[YoungWillz 20,914]

It's all gone to Galveston with the sad demise of Glen Campbell. Several teams had him and has mixed up the leaderboard.

 

Not a Wildcard pick for anyone, surprisingly, but plenty of them still about and ready to check out.

[YoungWillz 20,914]

Three teams saw their way Kristal clear to picking the oldest man (verified). Leaderboard in the early hours, will there be more hits before then?

[Joey Russ 7,210]

Not gonna lie, it feels a lot more tense now than it did 2 months ago. At the moment, I'm currently leading by 300 points, and I could expand it more, as I have a certain amount of totterers on my team who could go at any moment. However, I recognize that the other teams behind me also have totterers that could go and take my lead away at any moment. Sir Creep in particular I'm worried about at the moment, because his joker could push me out of the lead at some point. I stand by my belief that while I probably will be in the top 5 in the end, I don't think I'll become the eventual winner. But nonetheless, I know that this'll be an amazing performance in my debut year, especially since my team was kind of half assed to begin with...
