Game 3 is up. If there'd been seeding those two would have been kept apart. Sorry.

Some poor contests in current round although John Lews v/s Choc chip cookies has the feel of a decent scrap. My money is on gudgeon to punch well above it's deminutive be-whiskered weight again. I've always had a soft spot for the vastly underated bottom feeder. Go gudge!

You *do* keep your fondness for gudgeon very well hidden
(our old friend the perch is up in Game 12 - that tie is scheduled for Friday).

The man's a genius.
I find myself strangely drawn to biscuits. Is this a sign?

DT is spot on in his assessment of the gudgeon's prospects; moreover, the performance of mammals overall gives hope for brighter days ahead.

Mammal fans should look out for game 11 - tough away fixture for the red squirrel (sciurus vulgaris).
Those of us with a fondness for fish have to pin our hopes for the bottom half of the draw on the roach (rutilus rutilus) which has fine prospects in game 13.
Alas I suspect the noble pike (esox lucius) is going to get slaughtered in game 9.
