@KiwiPie New one, def a new one...
-
@taniwharugby
I forgot. Am I winning? Not likely so yeah, a new one. -
Not a massive number of votes but it is clear - the 2020 competition is ended with Higgins the champion, Barbarians the team champs and Triple T the cup winner.
A new competition will begin when the matches begin and we will just make it a battle of individuals in case we don't get enough returnees to form the teams. With just 2 games per weekend, look out for a new scoring system to test your skills.

Cool. Like getting bonus points for getting both results wrong?

We're live again! Still the same link https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/
A new tipping form and spreadsheet have been created so enter your tips now at
Changes are as follows
-
No team competition, you're all just playing for yourself for these 10 weeks.
-
80 points per weekend - double points for picking winner and margin as before so 40 points for the 2 games. 8 more categories of 5 points each.
-
For a team score, you score 5 for being correct or within 1, 4 for being 2/3 out, 3 for being 4/5 out etc etc. So if you're 10 or more away you get zero.
-
For team tries, you score 5 for being correct and 2 for being within 1.
The first game is on Saturday at 5pm so you have until then to submit.

I'm liking that the points picks often don't bear a relation to the tries picks - 28 points and 5 tries??

Sounds though Beuden has had a bad kicking day.

Missed 5 conversions from right in front and nailed a penalty from out wide?

I've powered up the supercomputer and we have in-progress scores .... all this lot picked the Highlanders to win and amazingly Paj is the early leader also scoring 5 for being within 1 of the Highlanders total and getting the number of Chiefs tries correctly.
-
The results are in and the early leader is Phooey with a monstrous 67 points, with Kruse the only other tipper to get both results and margins correct. Already the table is well spread out but with so many points available per game, there will be plenty of chances to catch up.
