We still need more players - I've included on the leaderboard those that usually take part such as @sportboy @antipodean @Crucial @dK @Paj @FarNthHayden @Hurrycanes @Machpants but the comp is still open to anyone else who wants to play
Nah stop the comp now
Seconded. All in favour?
bah..im guessing you tipped Auckland!, the comp must continue for your punishment lol
Usually I'm completely out of synch with Bay wins and losses, so this was a proverbial lightning stike

I'm happy with 4th - so more than happy for the competition to be stopped now as well

KP has envoked a compulsory draft for these usually regular tippers that have somehow managed to forget to tip in the opening round.
@sportboy (BoP), @Crucial (Counties-Waikato and defending champion!), @antipodean (Counties-Waikato), @dK (Harbour-Auckland), @FarNthHayden (Northland), @Paj (Hawkes Bay), @KiwiMurph (Northland), @Machpants (Wairarapa-Bush), @Hurrycanes (Wellington)Naturally if your name is not amongst those mentioned above you are still very welcome to come in and make sure your teams have a full roster from now on. There is also scope for other diehard posters particularly like Northlanders @kev @Gunner to enter the contest and represent your areas. Maybe even @Dan54 might be tempted to tip his hat into the ring for the generally all conquering Wairarapa-Bush outfit as @Buck seems to be on an elongated sabatical and possibly even @Cactus-Jack might be tempted to make a return? @Kruse must resting on his laurels (joining @Crucial) after taking top honours on the last TSF contest on Superbru.com!

Cut of time for the first game in the round (Counties v HB) is 7.05pm NZ Time on 11 August -
@Machpants the mid-week games are not included in the tips, much like NZR, @KiwiPie is devaluing the NPC
-
@taniwharugby LOL really? ANyway can't watch enough games I'd just be random guessing - which admittedly would probably give me a better score

That's what @kirwan does. He's currently in third place
I won one of these comps doing exactly that.

Results for the weekend are live https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/
Comfortable wins for Northland, Wairarapa Bush, Harbour-Auckland and a narrow win for Hawke's Bay over Wellington. Bush, H-A & HB are level at the top on 9 points after 2 wins.
No points were scored for Southland v Northland as it ended in a draw so 6 results was the best you could get. Top scorer was Wayne's World with 59 with all 6 results picked and both category picks correct (you needed Canterbury/Wellington as top scorers, Otago as lowest). Also over 50 were 4 D's, Dan54, Donsteppa, Dolamite & DK. Donsteppa extends his lead to 11 points, Wayne's World is up to 2nd, followed by Dogmeat, Windows97 & Kirwan.
We welcome back @Paj @Hurrycanes & @sportboy to the world of tipping while @BartMan & @Grooter went AWOL and @BorderJB was too late to be counted.
Top 32 scores next week go into the first round of the Cup.

Time to get your tips in everyone - first game is just over 2 hours away https://thesilverfern.com/tipping-submit/

I don't know whether it serves any purpose, but I forgot to get my tippings in and I've now submitted them during the Canterbury v Manawatลซ game. For the highest and lowest point scoring teams, I've picked teams from matches played after that game.
Can I still pick up points for the games that haven't started yet?
-
@Stargazer yeah you will...

You can but it depends how far through the games are - as it turned out, you scored less than the default score so you were given that instead. The default is 5 below the lowest score for someone who picked all games.

The scores are in https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/
Not an easy week to score points with nobody believing Northland would win and a fair number not picking Counties or Taranaki. @george33 had an outstanding score of 59 with 6/7 and 4 with margin. @mikey07 with 51 and @mikedogz with 47 also picked 6/7.
@Donsteppa still leads by 11 from @Waynes-World but the masses are closing in behind with @Kirwan @Dolamite & @taniwharugby making up the top 5 and only 10 points separating 3rd and 13th.
Wins for the Bush, Harb-Auck & Hawke's Bay mean they are all 3/3 and looking good to make the semis - the other 5 teams battling for the last place.
The first round of the Cup is live, the 32 qualifiers were the 32 top scores from the weekend.
