@taniwharugby Oh, I see that now. That means you will have more energy to coerce your fellow Northlanders into sharpening their pencils and fronting up again this season! I am about to start rounding up the usual suspects from the Bush team who are mostly mates of my son and another hanger on, both played NPC for the Bush about ten years back. Hopefully other Bushers like @MN5 and @Machpants might finally do the right thing and front up to bolster what appears to be a Bush team on a slightly waning trajectory. Well they did not win it last season anyway!
I’m certainly a big fan of Bush

Born and bred in woodville, I am available for selection if required. Played my first rep rugby at age 12 in the green and red!
lol this was @MN5 ..I suspect he wasn't referencing rugby
-
@Higgins can you invite me or what is the name? I can't seem to find the superbru one

OleOleOleNotable earlier tipper @Hooroo must be giving it the Encyclopedia Brittanica study before getting his entry in this week
Please note - If you miss cut off time for the first game you can still tip for the remaining fixtures. This link will get you to the weekly tipping entry sheet
-
@Chris-B you not a southerner?
-
@broughie He is from Tasman. Speaking of which it makes it a bit surprising that they have not managed to cobble together a team of mercenary imports to front up for them!
-
Defending champions Counties/Waikato are really cocking a snook at everyone if they are so confident they think they can front with a team of currently three in total to defend their title. Come on you guys @OomPB and @hooroo surely you can't have retired just when you have hit the top? Surprisingly fellow titleholder @antipodean has flown the coup and has declared for Harbour/Auckland, do I detect dissention within their ranks?
-
@Higgins Tasman grows their own. Imports. Hmmff
-
NPC sides are shit at updating their fans so it's impossible to wait for the teams to be named before making your picks
Here's the teams named so far:
-
@Crucial jump in for bop team.
-
I'm in for Wellington again. So 2 more needed

All the NPC teams have been named now. So anyone that takes their tipping seriously has no excuse now
-
I've put my terrible tips in. If the Auckland team is full, you can put me in Northland (Kamo High School represent...)
-
OK final calls for tippers.
Northland still need another two but have space for three
Counties Manakau need the same as Northland
Wellington have space for one more
South Island need one but preferably two more tippers. How about the likes of @FakatavaAllBlack or @Southern-Man for these sports?To get the easy ten points for the Manawatu v Canterbury game your tips must be in by five past seven.

Harbour splitters can piss off
Dogmeat, Tim
North Auckland?
-
@Higgins thought I,ll sit this year out but you have convinced ne.
-
Looks like we have 48 entries which is the perfect number for 8 teams. Now we just need everyone to remember to tip every week
-
@trooa said in TSF NPC Tipping 2022:
@Crucial jump in for bop team.
True colours is CM for me mate.
If there was FPC tipping I’d be BOP as have whanau playing there. -
@Duluth Takapuna to I die. Tips were in early
-
The results are in and the teams are assigned - https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/ - and the tipping form for this current weekend is live.
I kept people in the same team as last season where possible and then filled up the teams so that every team has 6 players. The top 5 players score each week so 6 is the ideal number for each team. Check the leaderboard to see which team you are in.
Early leaders are @Crucial in 1st and @mikedogz in 2nd from the reigning champion Counties Waikato team who retain 5 of their winning squad and have added Valley legend @BartMan to the roster. Langakali is 3rd and @sportboy 4th, the only person to pick all 6 results correctly (the draw counted as zero for everyone). Cellar dwellers are newcomer @OleOleOle and @Tim. Team wins for Wairarapa Bush, Counties Waikato, Northland and Harbour-Auckland.
Notable missing tipsters are @Hooroo @Corkscrew @hydro11 @Cactus-Jack @FarNthHayden
There is a Facebook group for Tipping as well where I post this update and tipping reminders - https://www.facebook.com/groups/590271681147113

Pretty easy to see why the early lead is with two CM supporters. Cant have been much faith from the Taniwha crew in their team.
Anyway, from this lofty position there's only one way to go but I'll enjoy it for the week. -
Funnily enough I feel like this is my best tipping performance this season. I feel like I have improvement in me and to be honest I cannot see myself being in a worse position this season.
That being said, I'll conduct my review today, identify my work-ons. A week is a long time in tipping and I feel I will be much better this week.
-
Middle of the table, I'll take that, always took half a season for this old hooker to get match fit. Tough to pick at the start when you have no form to go on!
And in the mighty Waikato -Counties team, I'll do my best lads!

Not on the “notable missing tipsters” list but also not anywhere else by the looks…
-
@JK Keep tipping as there are bound to be a number fall by the wayside sooner or later so you will soon be back into a team.
Another regular also missing is @Smudge. Missing a round you get the default of five less than the lowest for the week so all is not lost. Sadly the lowest for this week was a pretty miserable 21!

Sorry JK, that list was off the top of my head - you are notable as well and sorry if your submission must have got lost - I always check for the "your tips are in" message and you have to scroll back up to the top of a long screen to find it. As Higgins says, put some tips in for week 2 as in the past we have had many who tip week 1 and are never seen again.

Simply don't have time at the moment. Thanks for thinking of me. And yes I know it's 5 minutes every week, but...
(plus I'm still sulking after being in Pukekohe to watch my Otago team completely butcher a win last week)

Assume we are not tipping the Wednesday games?
