The Punt #50
Adrian and Matt, both down the bottom of the ladder, recorded good wins last weekend. Adrian in particular cashed in big time, and got himself out of last place for the first time in many weeks.

Tomo, David and Adrian all won last week. For Adrian, it was a step in the right direction, finally stopping the flood of losses.

Matt is now in danger of dropping into negative territory… Who will he and the rest of our punters back this weekend?
