Tipping 2020

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.

Nobody picked both games with margins but plenty went for Blues & Crusaders to win. Best score was Unite with 54, getting close on all of the points scores and picking Crusaders to score 5 tries. Phooey was 2nd with 51, also getting 5 tries for the Crusaders and getting the Blues score exactly right. He now leads overall by 13 from Joan and Mary with TR, Sportboy and Kruse making up the top 5. All of these 5 bar Kruse have picked 4 winners from 4 so far along with Richie who sits in 10th place.
At the other end of the table, Paj scored a spectacularly low 7 points getting almost everything wrong and forcing the non-tippers (Corkscrew, Canes4life, Mikedogz, Voodoo, Fiamacho) to get only 2 points.

@KiwiPie I thought I went Blues / Crusaders? Certainly meant to and wasn't drunk. Must be the onset of dementia
Looks like it - you picked Chiefs for a narrow win.

Brief report from the weekend.
Amazingly, Richie topped the scoring for the weekend despite getting the Blues v Highlanders result wrong. He did it by gathering up 35 points for the Crusaders game, picking a close 2 tries to 1 victory. Kruse and TR also exceeded 50 and are now 3rd and 2nd with Phooey still leading by 12. With a lot of people failing to tip, you could well guarantee a top 20 finish just by tipping every week.
4 are still picking results at 100% - Sportboy, Phooey, TR and Joan and Mary. Who is going to be the first to crack?
