Another low scoring Lowdown prediction game but for the second time in three years, I am the winner. But this illustrates another point about deadline day. We made our picks based on logic and rumours that have been dug up. Our picks based on logic were the ones that scored points. Just goes to show that a network can put up all the live blogs, Twitter accounts, online stream, and Trade Trackers they want but it will still all be speculation.
