[Updated – 9986 and Bart Simpson’s tips are in. How does this effect the Panel?]

What are the Experts thinking (or not thinking) this week?

This is another tough week of tipping and with Origin less than two weeks away it will only get tougher with depleted teams playing (less?) depleted teams.

The bookies have the Knights v Eels, Phins v Wahs, and Tiges v Bunnies close to even, so they are the key wins to push for a perfect round.

There are B$80 reasons waiting in the Bart Simpson Weekly Jackpot.

Having said that, be prepared for at least one upset in the other matches.

The Experts Panel

Carlos has hit the lead leapfrogging (the Agents) 9986. While Shagger continues his phoenix like rise and is chipping away at the Experts lead.

Funnily, this week’s differential scores look like calendar years. Carlos is in the moment with 2025 while Pablo is 30 years in the future. He should be doing so much better with that advantage.

Fittingly, 9986 is stuck in the last century while the Footy Tipper algorithm is back at a the time where selections were made by throwing darts on a dartboard.

As for the winners, the only consensus is the Raiders will beat the Titans with all Standouts on them.

We are still waiting on two Experts as at time of publishing.

[Update – Bart Simpson has picked Broncos as Standout and he and 9986 have added the Bulldogs to the consensus winners’ circle. Does that even make sense?]

Pablo has his biased RedV eyes on the Dragons to upset the Broncos and Footy Tipper picked the Sharks over Storm. Best check the ladder out first, there are only five humans below the algorithm now.
