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?

Only Langakali, Paj, Broughie and Waynes World picked 2 results out of 2 - Langakali also was very close on scorelines and picked the try count for the Chiefs spot on. He scored 63 to be the best for the weekend, 3rd highest score of the season. Rising from 12th to 2nd, and only 5 behind Phooey who also fell back against Kruse, TR and Sportboy.
In the TSL Cup, the 15 winners go through along with both Mikedogz and Victor who drew 41-41 which was a higher total than any of the losing scores and so both go through without a replay.
Quite a few non-tippers - only 28 tipped on time and Donsteppa missed game 1.

@KiwiPie I've gone through the Tip Submission form about 3 times now - yesterday evening, and just now. But can't see anything appearing in the spreadsheet.
Anything wrong? Or am I just flooding you with multiple incorrect tips, which I just can't see for some reason?
I see there are 128 lines in the spreadsheet - not some ridiculous limit on spreadsheet size. (I only surmise that as 128 is a power of 2, and most limits are related to that)
