Michael Whittaker and Jay Cleary from Bathurst Real Estate lead the competition by a single point with two rounds to play in the NRL.
Sales agent Jay says there are a few secrets to the pair’s success.
“I don’t let Michael tip,” Jay said.
“And I tip who I think will win, not with my heart.”
And that’s just as well. Had the pair tipped with their hearts they would likely be well back in the pack with Jay being a Rabbitohs fan and Michael supporting the Eels.
Second-placed Bathurst Automotive currently trails Bathurst Real Estate by just one point but Jay says he’s not feeling the heat.
“The pressure’s on them,” Jay said.
“They need to find a way to bridge the gap.”
With the NRL play-offs NRL looming, Jay says it’s hard to pick a grand final winner, especially with the recent good form of the Raiders and Panthers.
