Less than 5 hours to tip - get busy https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping-submit
Did I really select Highlanders? I struggle with that spread sheet as the top row doesn’t remain fixed.
Must have clicked wrong button on phone as would never think the highlanders would win
Nah you picked Crusaders 9-16. I spotted an issue - everyone had bloody edit access on that spreadsheet so it was constantly changing. Fixed that now and have left it with most recent at the top so that this week's tips will be the first one of yours that you find.

Everything is now up to date.
The category picks and the Blues game were the key things this weekend. For category picks, Corkscrew actually got all 4 which was good for him as his tips generally sucked. Antipodean was one of 4 to get 3/4 and made him top scorer for the weekend, a big improvement on previous form. Also 3/4 for mikedogz, Winger and Broughie. Everyone picked the Chiefs to win so no 6/6 in picks this week.
A shift around at the top as the top 3 all bombed and all are now out of the top 5. Moving up to take places 1-5 are Joan and Mary, Higgins, Hurrycanes, Hydro11 and Triple T. Big rises for previous top performers Winger and Donsteppa to just outside the top 10, spectacular falls for Sportboy and Stockcar86, so shocked by their previous lofty positions around the top 10, they now share 34th place.
In the Cup, GT12 won the replay against Broughie by scoring 2 x 10s for the first 2 games. Into the quarter-finals go Triple T, Hurrycanes, Higgins, Victor, DK, Joan and Mary, Caprice and either Langakali or Phooey who drew.
In the team comp, the Sunjags made it 4 wins from 4 by taking down the BOP Chiefs, Canes Black beat Blues B to stay close behind in 2nd (with Blues B 0/4 and last). Wins also for Blues A who go into the top 4 and a first win for the season for Canes Gold.

It is all live at https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/ and next week's tipping form is up. Tough week with nobody picking the Rebels, only 13% going for the Blues and Reds v Sharks split about 50/50. So given the Hurricanes game was basically an easy 20 points for most people (17+, most points, biggest margin), there were some badddddd scores - nobody picked 5/6.
Tim was best with 44, Dogmeat 43, Fiamacho 42 and then a whole posse on 41. No change at the top as all the top 3 scored 41 and moved away a little from the chasers. Hitting the top spot is proving bad news for some people as Sportboy, OomPB and Hooroo have all crashed out of the top 10 shortly afterwards. Joan and Mary still leads by 3 from Higgins with Hurrycanes a point back.
Voodoo scored lowest, just 17 after bizarrely ignoring the Hurricanes in the category picks.
Yet another win for the SunJags who are 5/5. Yet another defeat for Blues B who are 0/5.
In the Cup, Triple T and Higgins are into the semi-finals - Hurrycanes/Joan and Mary and Victor/Langakali have replays to decide.
Back to 7 games next weekend which is good news. All of @ACT-Crusader @Nevorian @Bones missing in action this week - get those tips in now for next week.

I did. Think you swapped your Blues pick for the Canes ....

IT would have been in error if I picked the Blues in the original as I thought the travel etc would have been too much,

Quick report - the clear winner of the weekend was Fiamacho with 56 points, tipping all 7 games with 3 margins on a tough week for them (bar the Sunwolves of course). He climbs from 41 to 21 overall. Also getting 7/7 but just one margin is Broughie who scored 46 to move up to 4th and just 12 off the lead.
Joan and Mary still holds the lead by 1 from Hurrycanes and 5 from Higgins. She also made the Cup final where her opponent is Triple T.
Worst was Mikey07 with an astonishing season low of only 10 - picking only the Crusaders and Brumbies to win with incorrect margins. He contributed to the SunJags losing their 1st game of the season to the Barbarians who are now just 2 behind them in 2nd and level with Canes Black who are 3rd because of fewer points scored. Blues B had their 6th straight defeat, never losing by more than 3 points. @Nevorian has gone missing so their active 5 need to improve.
