TSF Super Tipping 2023

@Dan54 You can change your tips right up until kick off time in the first game of the round if you like. Not always the wisest of things to do as remember the old saying when you accidentally put a wager of the wrong horse - "never change a wrong ticket as Murphy's Law is likely to happen"!
You can check here to see if your tips have been received https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/ using the "Have I tipped?" tag or this one here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kxisdgGg3rHj5KY5vtQsi3iUxSbU21ebLhGaCidUhx8/edit#gid=1973723998 will probably work too. It also gives you the chance to fix things if you have accidentally tipped Rebels 17+ when you really meant the tip to be Crusaders 17+ for example

Just a roundup of where we are at the moment (2.00pm), keep checking back to this post as I will update it when I can. Good to see a number of newcomers, hopefully they will last the distance ie tip every week! Looks like the Official Selector will have to do a bit of mixing and matching in a couple of instances where there might be more than six tippers sticking their hand up to represent a team. Don't let that put you off though as KPs Tipping Contests are SIMPLY THE BEST
Barbarians:
Tipped = Langakali, Rico#1, Triple T, Higgins
Still awaiting last year’s tippers/other possibilities: Victor, Waynes World (last I heard he was thinking seriously of delaying his tipping retirement!)BoP Chiefs
Tipped = Mikedogz, Crucial, Chimoaus, Donsteppa, Unite
Still awaiting last year’s tippers/other possibilities: @KiwiPie, @Hooroo, @BayImports @Sportboy, @Bartman, @OleOleOle, @ARHS, @Trooa
Almost enough for a Development Squad when you all get your entries in!Blues A
Tipped = J77, George, TR, Tim
Still awaiting last year’s tippers/other probabilities: @JK, @Fiamacho, @Duluth – remember guys 6 tippers needed to get a full team so make the effort please!Blues B
Tipped = DK, Broughie
Still awaiting last year’s tippers/other probabilities: @Dogmeat, John Nolan (defending 3rd place), @Dice, @Farnthhayden @gunner. Generally the better performing Blues team so you have a duty to rustle up a 6 man teamCanes Black
Tipped = Cactus Jack, Hurrycanes, Mikey07, PAJ, Dan54, Antipodean, Delicatessen
Still awaiting last year’s tippers/other possibilities: @Hydro11 (defending champ)
Injured/Unavailable: Stockcar86, Bones(?)
Well done on the responses so far, looks like a decision to be made by the selectors as to the final makeup of this team!Canes Gold
Tipped = Machpants, Canes4Life, Mackerzz, Laurance, BorderJB, Winger,
Still awaiting last year’s tippers/other possibilities: @Plastered Peni
Transferred to BoP Chiefs: CrucialSouth Island
Tipped = ACT Crusader, Nevorian, Corkscrew
Still awaiting last year’s tippers/other possibilities: @Smudge, @SouthernMann, @FakatavaAllBlack, @Chris, @ChrisB, @kiwiwomble, @Canerbry. Come on some of you guys pull finger to get a full 6 man roster.Sunjags

@gt12 said in TSF Super Tipping 2023:
I'm in and will try to tip...
I think we had @Kruse in the Sunjags last year and needed himI've put my first week tips in as "Individual" - to be drafted wherever.
But SunJags does sound familiar - so yeah, happy to rejoin SunJags.
Seems appropriate - a bunch of misfit ex-pats. -

The results are up for week 1 at https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/ and this will be the home all season, bookmark it now. The tipping form for Week 2 is live.
Mikedogz had the top score of 47, 2 ahead of Donsteppa, Tim, Hydro11, Hurrycanes & Higgins. Nobody picked 6/6 despite 9 tippers going for the Chiefs to win.
Everyone has been put into a team, priority is given to regular players going into their regular team. Look on the leader board to see which team you are in. 47 tippers and only the Blues B team is playing with 5 as I confidently expect @dogmeat to turn up for Week 2. If anyone else wants to join, tip for week 2 and you will start on 9 points (if you don't tip you get 5 less than the worst tipper).
Wins for BOP Chiefs, Blues A, Barbarians & SunJags.

Blues A has enough of a squad. No need for this old campaigner to be involved.
We usually lose a few tippers in the first couple of weeks, you would soon be a starter. Give it a go - see if you can beat @dogmeat

Nah. A wise man once said, if you don't miss the first week, you can't miss em all.

I would be in, but am away for a couple of weeks to Aus after the first week, but maybe I could put in picks before I go.

Nice one. And on a general point if you're the sort who is likely to forget, make your tips at the start of the week when the results come out - submit again close to the first game if you want to change and I'll use your latest tips.
