One of the entertainments about trying to rate any Townsville team is the mystery of 'who will turn up?' Sure, there's sixteen of them listed on the rego site, but how many have booked flights? (Probably only Mansauce, as he has some sort of income) And of those how many are willing to take on the Townie-style insanity of driving down and back for Halibut? (Probably a car load or two. Hamish won't be hitching, I think as he has a lady-love to impress these days).
FORM: Last year (while craply named as 'Shoot to Kill' - Concrete Donkey while still pretty crap is at least an improvement) the crew came in 5th of 12, with a win over Da Frizz (also returning this year) a highlight.
PARTY: Generally this lot does pretty well at parties. Simon Urquhart's costume effort from 2006 was a standout. Expect to see the Viking Drinking Game pulled out, although now that it's been popularised at Nationals, expect many southerners to barge into the action.
OUR TIP: The bigger field this year should make things tougher, and Anscomb and Barnes are older and slightly crazier. 8th.

Harsh but fair.
Looking forward to who you rank as #1 for partying.

I await your other previews with bated breath
Definitely a party team, but I'll be backing them to achieve better than 8th.
4th or better
The Viking Drinking Game? Do you perhaps mean the Viking Game that keeps you so busy with your hands that you pretty much don't drink at all?
It was fun for a bit, but don't go and pretend it's a drinking game...
Drinking game - a game you play while you drink.
And yes, I am starting to think my 8th prediction will come back and bite me. Too late now . . .
