    @Kiwiwomble I think that has to do with the fact that they need a minimum number of participants in the tipping comp per team. There aren't enough participants to have all the teams, so hence one South Island team. No doubt, @KiwiPie will correct me if I'm wrong.

    Yeah, that's right. Back in the day nearly each province had enough to put a team together. Also why there is a Counties-Waikato team.

    Sheer lack of numbers for the worlds greatest tipping comp, bar none!

    first timer...whats with the "south island" rather than all the teams?

    As @Stargazer and @Hooroo say it is down to a lack of players. But each year, we re-organise the teams based on who joins. Back in 2006 when the first NPC Tipping Comp was run, we had 12 teams - those were the days

    So to join, just tip Week 1 and I'll form up the teams after the tips are in - 6 players per team is ideal, 5 is minimum.

    Lets see if I can be the first to go from top to bottom in a year. @Winger should start in negatives to penalize his excellent tipping consistency. 🙂

    Hoping the likes of @trooa and/or @Snollygoster turn out for the Bay tipping team this season. (see details on this thread).

    Last call to enter the tipping competition, the first game is tonight. 29 entrants so far not including myself and a few regulars are yet to join - if we can get to 40+ that will be perfect for an 8 team competition.

    My key is remembering to tip each week. And mostly not getting the teams back the front. Even then I still have had a few awful years where all results go against my picks
