Tipping 2020
-
We're up to to date at https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/ - current leader Phooey failed to tip leaving TR to take over the lead by 7 points with Langakali, Sportboy & Kruse rounding out the top 5. Plenty picked 2 results but only Higgins, Winger and Mikey07 bagged both margins as well. Most were caught out by the relatively low scoring weekend - Winger top scored with 61 to move up to 6th.
In the Cup there were bizarre victories for Crucial and Mikedogz who had 2 of the lowest scores of the round but had drawn opponents who failed to show up. This was tough on the losers of the other 6 ties who all scored at least 18 more than those 2.
Half-way through the season - who can keep their interest long enough to eventually triumph?

@Virgil straight up the guts, results speak for themselves
Yeah nothing to do with the fact you got @Snowy to pick up Phooey and tie him up in his basement. Where he will then be released after the tipping comp has finished...

So I reckon that's twice I have failed to realise who the home team are and as a result have tipped the opposite to what I intended
I am so fucking thick
are you looking for an argument on that point?
No one is keen to take it up by the looks of things.

You are indeed - you picked the score as Crusaders 27 Blues 16 - almost spot on. But picked the Blues 9-16. Turned a weekend's best of 62 into a moderate 42. Nice work.

@taniwharugby SHUDDUP!!!!

Still working on the update for this weekend - lots of poor scores unsurprisingly. Who is claiming an entry under the name Nathan Hill? The only person not tipping who tipped last week is @Cactus-Jack so is it you?

Results are live now at https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/
I gave Cactus Jack the points for Nathan Hill on the basis that he usually tips early in the week and was the only regular missing. He and Corkscrew were the only ones to pick 2/2, Corkscrew with 54 the highest of the weekend. Many were caught out by the results and the high scoring games after they were low scoring last weekend.
TR scored well to retain the lead by 14 over Winger with Sportboy up to 3rd.
