TSF NPC Tipping 2019

The only absentee this week is @trooa which explains BOP's appalling total. Canes4life is the only one to pick 5/5 so far but Stargazer leads for the week with 4 margins from 4 picks. The overall TSF individual title race is very tight with only 6 points separating the top 6.
Donsteppa and Justin77 have identical picks so far so their Cup replay is ongoing. They differ on the Ta$man margin of victory so 17+ wins it for Donsteppa, any other result and it is J77 going through.

Everything is live in the usual place.
Wellington with the narrow win over Northland to stay at the top, Wairarapa Bush beat the winless Harbour-Auckland to stay 2nd and Hawke's Bay thrash 4 man BOP to stay 3rd - these 3 are all assured of a semi-final place. South Island, Northland and Counties-Waikato can all take the final place.
Canes4life picked 7 from 7 but was only 7th best for the weekend with only 1 margin and no category pick. Number 10 was the best with 57 but is still only 16th overall. Winger leads again but the top 5 are separated by only 6 points so all to play for.
Justin77 and Higgins will play the TSF Cup final over the next 2 weekends.

Tipping carnage for the weekend and Virgil knocked Richie off his perch by claiming the worst tipping week with just 7 points. Richie was 2nd best just a point behind Joan and Mary who was the only one to get to 40 points and the only one to pick 6/7 (nobody at all picked the Cantabs to lose). It was an odd week all round with the top and low scorers (BOP and Counties) also being picked as the complete opposite.
Nothing changed in the team's competition in the final round with South Island winning to retain 4th spot despite wins for Northland and Counties Waikato. Wellington beat Wairarapa Bush to claim the minor premiership and the semis next week will be
Wellington v South Island
Wairarapa Bush v Hawke's BaySpecial mention to Harbour-Auckland who completed the perfect 7 games, 7 defeats season.
The new leader is Canes4life (only he and Gunner picked BOP as top scorers) and he leads by 3 from Bay Imports with Winger dropping back to 3rd.
In the Cup final, Higgins and Justin77 drew their first leg 22-22 so all to play for next week.

how many of us tipped the mighty Stags?
8 brave souls - and then the Stags buggered it up a bit by thrashing C-M when you all picked 1-8.
