It's our first full programme of small ball this week, so a good chance for the knowledgeable hurling brains among you to make up some ground. I haven't even seen a league table yet, so I'm toast anyway!! As I said, there's no point putting in Birr vs Clara because that'll just be a cakewalk, so for the purposes of this, it's Clara plus a twenty point head start. I was strongly tempted to put head starts on a few of the other games, but I've taken the liberty of adding a special bonus - for this week only, successfully tipping an underdog in any of the Fav/Underdog games returns not three points but FIVE. I understand this is an ad hoc change, but personally I think each and every one of the outsiders this week are big dogs, so I want to put in a decent reward for calling them so as everyone doesn't just tip the four favs. Another example of me abusing my grand power!!
