📰 Gameweek 9 News

Gameweek 9 is here, and the fresh set of questions are now live. As always, the deadline is kick-off of the first match, which this week is 8:00pm on Friday 24th October.

⚽ Gameweek 8 Review

Gameweek 8 served up a tidy, no-nonsense round where smart calls paid off. The big story was another 200 point preseason prediction being determined when Mbeumo scored in the first 10 minutes vs Liverpool. The other big news was Rathfarnham Rats and Maxie Pads both stitching together a perfect six-from-six on the 50-pointers to land 301 points apiece and take home Silver Shields. Two clinical cards, no fuss — exactly what you want at this stage of the season.

Just a step back, Cunha Beleba!? and H-N Ham Fighters kept standards high with 250, staying right in the conversation. The next pack settled on solid returns with 4 predictions correct, including Free Estate Kenmare, Leave My Arselona, FC 20 Benson&Hedges and Sky Blue Blues at 201, plus a useful 200 for Prediction Prophets, De Ligt My Balls, The Delgany Sharks, 2inarow and SweeperVision.

There were steady hands in the middle too — Arcticus on 151, followed by a run of 150s from I Predict Deez Tings, TK Predictions, Allison Wonderland, Moore-4-2, An A Corse Celtic 🤟🤤, ManlyChestHair Utd and Blasters FC. A handful had quieter outings — Team Name Taken 101, Ctrl Alt De Ligt, Bandwagonesque, Sevilla Euro King and ThomasTheFrankEngine around the 100 mark — while late on the list Predicted It Admin1, The Mighty Duck, SandraBullock FC and Dynamo Chicken Kiev posted 50.

Super Sevens — 2 rounds to go (GW9 & GW10)

SweeperVision still set the pace on 1,228, but there’s proper pressure behind: H-N Ham Fighters are on 1,127, with Cunha Beleba!? 1,025 and a flying Rathfarnham Rats now at 1,003 after that perfect GW8. It’s tight enough that a single 75-pointer could swing the podium.

Just off that group, Team Name Taken and Maxie Pads are level on 953, with a busy pack — Moore-4-2, De Ligt My Balls, Dynamo Chicken Kiev, ManlyChestHair Utd, Blasters FC, Free Estate Kenmare, 2inarow, Ctrl Alt De Ligt and Leave My Arselona — all within one sharp weekend of a big leap. Two gameweeks left; it’s very much alive.

Season Gauntlet — Main Leaderboard

H-N Ham Fighters keep the lead on 2,279, but the gap isn’t comfortable with Cunha Beleba!? chasing on 2,151. The GW8 surge from Rathfarnham Rats moves them to 2,079, with An A Corse Celtic 🤟🤤 right there on 2,075. It’s a proper four-way scrap at the top.

There’s depth to the race too: Sky Blue Blues (1,929) and SweeperVision (1,905) are both well-placed to punish any slip from the leaders, while The Delgany Sharks, Dynamo Chicken Kiev and an improving Team Name Taken/Moore-4-2 give the top ten a very competitive feel.

On consistency of correct picks across the season, H-N Ham Fighters (31×50, 7×75, 1×200) lead the way, but Cunha Beleba!? (29×50, 4×75, 2×200) and Rathfarnham Rats (29×50, 3×75, 2×200) aren’t far behind. SweeperVision (28×50, 4×75, 1×200) are trending up, and there’s steady volume from An A Corse Celtic 🤟🤤, The Delgany Sharks, Moore-4-2 and Blasters FC. In short: the title race is wide open, and form is starting to matter.
