What the Call: Bulldogs Blow It, Bradford Dreams Big, Bears Feast on Browns
From diamond blowouts to footy upsets that never came, this week had the community feeling like heroes one minute and hiding their phones the next. Here's how the calls landed across the board.
MLB
The Pirates put on a show twice, thumping the Marlins 13-1 and the Red Sox 8-3, with the majority nailing both calls. But the Tigers-Guardians rubber match was a coin flip all series, and the community got burned calling NO right before Detroit snuck out a 6-4 win.
Australian AFL
Melbourne absolutely demolished Port Adelaide 132-56 and the crowd saw it coming, correctly calling against the home side. Fremantle's 112-88 romp over Adelaide wasn't so kind to the majority though, who'd backed the Dockers to fall short.
English Rugby League Super League
Bradford Bulls fans were dreaming big, with the majority calling an upset over Wigan Warriors — instead they copped a 34-6 hiding. St Helens' 46-16 romp over Wakefield was never in doubt either way, and the crowd rightly saw it coming.
English League Championship
Millwall silenced Bristol City with a tidy 2-0 away win, and the majority called it right by backing against the hosts. Meanwhile Bolton edged Preston 2-1 in a match the room was split right down the middle on — proper coin-toss stuff.
Australian National Rugby League
Newcastle put 36 on the Titans and the majority didn't see it coming, calling against the Knights. The Warriors' 40-6 demolition of Brisbane was a bit more predictable chaos, though the room still backed the wrong side there too.
NFL
The Bears steamrolled the Browns 34-10 and the community called it with confidence. The Bengals' narrow 16-14 nail-biter over the Lions went the other way from the majority's pick, proving even the tightest games can flip the script.
