3 games in and nearly everyone went for the Crusaders, Chiefs and Bulls with just a few backing the Blues and thinking it was a good decision at half-time.
Margins not so easy to pick and so only Unite, ACT Crusader, Joan and Mary have maximum 30/30.
BOP Chiefs 24 - 25 SunJags
Blues A 21 - 26 South Island
Blues B 23 - 23 Hurricanes Black
Hurricanes Gold 22 - 23 Barbarians -

It was a good decision at half-time. I'd already started congratulating myself.

Easy week to pick winners - not so easy to get the margins with a few games blowing out that people thought would be close and vice versa. 9 of us picked 8/8 with nearly everyone else getting 7 - of those that picked 8, Joan and Mary grabbed 3 correct margins for 59 and the best score of the week. After 61 last week, she/they are up to joint 3rd overall. Barbarian still leads, now by 17 from Donsteppa.
The SunJags and Blues B remain unbeaten and in the top 2 spots. Bonus point wins (your 5 counting players had 3 or more correct margin picks than your opponents) for the SunJags, the South Island and Blues B.
The TSF Cup is underway, another document added to the folder.

@KiwiPie The only difference between Triple T's and my own tipping this week is in the Blues vs. Bulls game. I have Blues 17+, whereas he has them by 9 - 16. Come on boys!
Fairly unusual for the Blues to come through when you're relying on them!

Super high scoring week for almost everyone. Best were Winger and JK, both with 74/80 which means 8 out of 8 results picked and margin correct in 6 of them. 16 picked 8/8 and I can't remember that many in the past.
Barbarian also went 8/8 to score 67 and keep his lead intact, 18 ahead of Winger with Triple T in 3rd. Donsteppa fell from 2nd to 6th as JK motored past into 5th. Other jumps upwards by Higgins, Hurrycanes, Justin77, FarNthHayden and Antipodean.
Go to the document called Cup to see who is into the last 32. Just Hydro11 and Buck to replay to take their place.
Hooroo was a missing tipper this week, not sure why.
Hurricanes Gold scored a massive 67 to beat the leading SunJags and move up to 3rd. Blues B are now the only unbeaten team and take over at the top after narrowly beating Blues A who have a perfect 5/5 losing record.

I can't beleive I forgot to tip. That must the first time in about 5 years?? Gutted
Sorry about that. Good thing it was a low scoring week so I won't have lost much ground....................
Will tip now so I don't forget.
You couldn't have done that 4 years ago could you...

It's the best evidence to change Super Rugby - I've never seen a more predictable year. Virtually no upsets at all, each game is pretty easy to tip.
Definitely the easiest year I can remember so far although last year was also getting easier.

Don't worry - you were just solely responsible for a Chiefs defeat that could see us miss the play-offs.
