It's the final week of TSF Tipping. Make it a good one. I'll try to do an update Saturday morning and Sunday morning before the Jaguares game.
-
Update so far - most went Blues but 14 picked the Reds and all of them scored a maximum 10. BOP Chiefs close up on the SunJags in the final, Hydro11 has his lead cut to 6 points from Mikedogz with Dolamite 3 points back. Mikedogz takes the lead from Donsteppa in the Cup final.

Why is this the final week? Why not tip the final round?
It's just set up that way in my spreadsheet for the teams comp. Could run it another week for the individual comp if everyone is keen - given you're actually leading then if you're happy, I'm sure everyone else is!
-
Report for week 17 and the news is - the teams competition is over, the 2 cups are complete but the individual comp lasts one more week. All the pages are updated here including a tipping sheet for Week 18.
Another draw and the players to get 6/6 were Mikedogz, Richie, Paj and Joan and Mary. But the top scorer was Canerbry with 52 (he picked both highest and lowest scorers) just ahead of Phoeey - South Island finally having a good week and avoiding the wooden spoon.
The Sunjags held on to win their first title, well done to the whole team. They won in the second leg as well as the first so it was a comfortable margin over the BOP Chiefs in the end - Richie, Joan and Mary and Barbarian all over 40 with only Sportboy achieving it for the BOP Chiefs.
Barbarians easily took 3rd from Blues B, Canes Black beat Blues A for 5th and South Island took 7th meaning Canes Gold took the wooden spoon.
The Sequel Cup was won by Donsteppa by 4 points from Mikedogz.
With a week to go, Hydro11 retains his 14 point lead from Mikedogz due to picking high and low scorer. All the others in contention fell back so it should be between these 2.

Up the Sunjags. We celebrate with steak and sake.
What about the vegetarian team members? Impossible burger?

History of Super Rugby Tipping after 14 seasons. No Chiefs side has ever won this competition although the BOP Chiefs have now lost in the final for 4 of the last 6 seasons.
Crusaders/South Island we are due.
In my best Auckland voice, 2020 is our year!

So the BOP Chiefs @Donsteppa @sportboy @Unite @Hooroo @mikedogz
One better next season? Do you know your work-ons?
Yes: Never tip the Blusers to win a game and the Hurricanes to lose during the same round in a final. (Or perhaps ever)

Agree - when faced with the conundrum of "Reds don't beat Kiwi teams" and "Blues don't win away" always always ALWAYS pick against the Blues.

I had never even looked at it like that! So much more to this tipping lark than closing my eyes and pointing at a team on my PC screen!

Reminder - I extended the individual tipping comp one more week so get your tips in.

I'm heading to England on Sunday but hopefully I'll get a chance to do a final update before I leave.
