@Joan-and-Mary Thanks to everyone except me!

3 things ...
-
There is now a Squads page so you can see which team you're in and who's in your team https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping-squads/
-
There is a Facebook group where I post score updates and reminders (the same things I post on here) if Facebook is more likely to get your attention. https://www.facebook.com/groups/590271681147113/
-
Special mention to Unite and Virgil who managed to pick just one result correctly in Week 1. On the bright side, you're only 43 points off the lead.

-
Reminder to get your tips in soon - if you want to check whether you have tipped or which tips you made or indeed, what everyone else has tipped .....
The link below is for the whole season - which means that all the tips will accumulate - including those from last season. So just sort column A (Right click on column, Sort Z-A) and the current week's tips will appear.
-
Nobody picked the result incorrectly for Highlanders v Reds but not many had the margin correct - only Mikedogz, Unite, DK and Bruce Kenyon. Missing tippers from last week are @Hooroo (who's a noted early tipper usually) and @voodoo (or is it @Voodoo-MKII )
As it is an unusual event, worth noting that DK is currently our overall leader.
BOP Chiefs 8-5 Hurricanes Black
Blues A 6-5 Barbarians
Blues B 8-8 SunJags
South Island 7-5 Hurricanes Gold -
Good morning. Firstly everything is updated on the Fern including the tipping form for the current weekend. https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/ etc. Next week is the start of the TSF Cup, see the Cup page for your matchup. Winners go through plus enough people to get to 32 - so probably a draw is enough or be one of the highest scoring losers.
Last weekend was tough - difficult results to pick and for the less difficult, the margins were tough so mainly low scores all round. Exception was Nevorian who led all scorers with 48 with 6 of 7 results, missing out only by picking the Chiefs to win - as did most people. Mikedogz the only other to get over 40 points. Worst was Waynes World with just 14, picking just the first 2 games correctly.
Blues B are the only team with 2/2, leading the table with a consistent performance and 4 scores over 30, 38 from DK the best and he leads overall by 9 from Plastered Peni. Blues B beat the SunJags with Barbarian the top score of 36 and with a 23 and 22 that had to be counted.
Second are Blues A, managing to pick up the only bonus points for getting 3 or more correct margins than the opposition. TR with 37 the only shining light and with a scores of 20 from Tim and Fiamacho, one of which had to be counted. Luckily for them, the Barbarians were even worse - Rico#1 the only one over 30, Waynes World's low 14 was discarded which meant they had to include Langakali's 19.
3rd are BOP Chiefs with no Hooroo entry but a 41 from Mikedogz and no disasters they had too much for Canes Black who had a few 30+, the best was Paj with 36.
Finally the South Island registered their 1st win, ACT Crusader the best with 38 but their worst was a relatively high 29 and that was too much for Canes Gold who despite having Nevorian's 48, had nothing else over 30 and had to count Crucial's 20.
The top 5 is
DK 92
Plastered Peni 83
Dolamite 81
Mikedogz 80
Barbarian 79 -

Pleasing start to the season but truth is that I’m probably best first up and have probably peaked for the season
And there ya go...backs it up with a 27. Hopefully second up syndrome and a not a sign of things to come!

Let’s see whether it does or not! Knowing my skill, it might be better not to tip at all!
Yes always worth tipping. No tips and you get 5 less than the lowest score. And that can be pretty low given some of the appalling efforts!
