Welcome to Round 3 of Last Man Standing, the sports prediction game open to all. This is the last week where new players can join.
Round 3 predictions now closed - 84 posters played.
82 posters entered last week, and 98 of you are currently in the running to be JA606 Last Man Standing champion . This week includes the first Brucie Bonus Pick, giving all posters, old and new, the chance to gain an extra life. Get excited people!
Well done if you went for Swansea to beat Wigan, Huddersfield Giants to beat St Helens or an early Klitschko win last week.

I want to join!
Great! Welcome aboard. You will start with just 1 life as you've missed the first 2 weeks, but make a correct prediction and get the Brucie Bonus correct and you will be on 2 lives next week, giving you a fair chance without penalising posters who have been involved from the off. Looking at the standings, a new entrant this week has every chance of taking the whole thing down, and this week is the last chance.
Round 3
In response to your comments, I've made the Round 3 options a little easier. Post your predictions below for ONE of the following 5 sporting events which take place next weekend PLUS answer YES or NO to the Brucie Bonus option! If you make a normal prediction but fail to make a Brucie Bonus pick, you'll miss out on a golden opportunity to gain an extra life.
So that's two pieces of information I need from you this week
1) Your usual prediction in order to not lose a life - as always you must pick winners
2) A Yes or No to the Brucie Bonus - get it right and gain an extra life
Here are your usual 5 options to pick from plus the bonus option at the bottom
10/3 Football Barclays Premier League
6/5 Bolton Wanderers v Queens Park Rangers 2/1
10/3 Football Barclays Premier League
2/1 Sunderland v Liverpool 6/5
10/3 Boxing WBO Lightweight World Title
*1/7 Ricky Burns v Paulus Moses 9/2
*Options are
1) The fight to be won by either man inside the distance
2) Burns to win on points
* If Moses wins on points or it's a draw or a no contest, both options lose
* Please state 'Inside the distance' or 'Burns on points' if you wish to predict the outcome of this fight
10/3 Rugby League Stobart Super League
2/7 Hull Kingston Rovers v Bradford Bulls 5/2
10/3 Football Scottish Premier League
6/5 Inverness Caledonian Thistle v Kilmarnock 2/1
BRUCIE BONUS PICK - Will Santander score?
11/3 Football La Liga
9/1 Racing Santander v FC Barcelona 30/100
Don't follow La Liga? Here are some stats to consider
Santander at home
PL13 W3 D7 L3 F9 A10
Barca away
PL12 W5 D5 L2 F20 A14
All posters who successfully predict whether or not Santander will score against Barcelona at El Sardinero on Sunday night gain an extra life. To be in with a shout, simply state YES or NO as well as your standard pick. An own goal by a Barcelona player will count as Santander having scored. You have nothing to lose on the bonus and will not lose a life if you get it wrong. You cannot predict Barcelona or Santander to win as your main pick
ALL PREDICTIONS MUST BE SUBMITTED BY SATURDAY NOON
GOOD LUCK!

Obers - could have done France/England at a push, but when I looked at the odds last week, I didn't think any of the fixtures were suitable. I don't follow RU and have to use the odds to guide me for that.
