The results are in - nobody picked 8 because of the draw and nobody picked 7 because there was no love at all for the Kings. But nearly everyone picked 6 with just a few dissenters.
Blues B were top scorers with an impressive 51 and take over at the top, the BOP Chiefs had one of the lowest scores of 44 but were luckily playing the worst scorers, the SunJags who managed 43 - the Chiefs are into 2nd. Blues A broke their duck with a win over the 7th placed South Island and Canes Gold and Barbarians played out a 47 all draw. Still 6 teams with a chance of the play-offs.
Barbarian keeps his big lead - 23 points - but there is a large group massing behind him with 2nd to 7th separated by just 7 points. Winger back up to 2nd after top scoring for the weekend.

@Higgins said in TSF Super Rugby Tipping 2017 http://bit.do/tsfs17:
Guys, unless I'm mistaken game 8 should read Brumbies v Blues. Hopefully KP will investigate and carry out the necessary repairs and maintenance if he comes to the same conclusion as me.
@KiwiPie can you change my Pick for the last game to Away 9-16 as I believe the Blues will beat the Brumbies.
Thanks

Hi KiwiPie, sorry please could you change my pick to Blues to beat Brumbies 1-8....

Score update with just Brumbies v Blues left to play
BOP Chiefs 31 - 34 Hurricanes Black
Blues A 28 - 37 Barbarians
Blues B 37 - 34 SunJags
South Island 31 - 37 Hurricanes GoldThe TSL Cup Final is
Virgil 24 v 31 Langakali
although if the Brumbies win 1-8, Virgil wins by a point. If Brumbies win 9-16 it is a tie. Any other result is a Langakali win.

All updated now. Langakali wins the TSF Cup thrashing Virgil easily. I'll start another cup from this coming weekend.
Barbarian increases his lead to 35 points as he was best of the round - surely his to lose now? Winger is 8 clear in 2nd and then there are just 17 points covering 3rd to 17th. Barbarian, Phooey, Crucial and Antipodean all picked 7/8 results - although Crucial somehow managed a moderate score.

All live now. Next week's form is https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1LlZMPL7cK4-THy3SlRrxkpNuy6ZtIhypznZdLo4brSY/edit?usp=sharing
An easy week to tip for most people with a majority getting 8/8 - although the 4 who picked the Cheetahs can feel pretty aggrieved with the ending of that game. It all came down to the margins in the end and Hydro11 got 6 correct to top all scorers with 70 points. He's making a move to defend his title, surging up to 3rd place. Barbarian had another solid week and with a lead of 36 points, it is looking like his title to lose. Winger is in 2nd (2015 champion) and Langakali in 5th (2014 champion) so all 3 previous winners are in contention. We won't go as far back as 2013 as Hooroo won that year and he is nowhere this time.
The bottom 2 teams scored rare wins, Blues A with only their 2nd win and able to ignore Virgil's shocker such that 57 was their lowest counting score - Tim's 64 the best of the bunch. The South Island also won just their 3rd game, Phooey with 64 so that Smudge's poor effort could be absorbed. Top scorers were Canes Black who bounced into the top 4 with 4 scores of 60 and higher. The Barbarians won again and are level at the top with Blues B, both teams needing probably just one more win to the safe in the play-offs. The SunJags were playing a man down with Mikedogz failing to show.
The top 32 scorers for the week are into the Sequel Cup.

AN Other 34 -
had to re-submit my tips, somehow I tipped the force to win, when clearly they wont (well they might now...)

Just a quick unofficial update in the absence of KP after the Rebels v Reds game.
Quite a few tippers are sitting on maximum 40s with Victor, Justin77, TaniwhaRugby, Gunner, Donsteppa, KiwiPie, Hyrdo11, Antipodean and, not unexpectedly, Barbarian all yet to blot their copybooks. JK, Antipodean and Smudge all within a successful penalty kick behind on 37pts.The Teams Competition progress looks like the following
BoP Chiefs 35 - 30 Sth Island
Blues A 35 - 30 Blues B
Canes Black 27 - 31 Barbarians
Canes Gold 30 - 30 SunJagsLooks like no one will get the lowest score pick thanks to the Brumbies miserable six points whilst about 70 percent are sitting pretty with the Blues as their highest score picks. The picks for the overnight games heavily favour one team in each match so it looks like it will come down to how accurate the various margin selections are!
