TSF Super Rugby Tipping 2024

Sorry it's a day late but the results are live and next week's tipping form is ready https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/
Only Mikey07 & OomPB managed 6/6 tips this weekend, Mikey07 the only 50+ score with 52 and moving up to 5th overall. At the top, just 3.5 points separates the top 4 with Waynes World and Triple T just ahead of Hydro11 and Victor. After getting a season's best score last week, Antipodean had the low score of just 21 this week.
With just 2 rounds to go, Barbarians have lost by a single point to a Canes team 2 weeks in a row but will finish top. Canes Black, Blues B, SunJags all won to sit in the top 4 but BOP Chiefs and Canes Gold can still make it if they win their last 2 games.
The Sequel Cup semi-finals are
Victor or Dolamite v Hydro11
Langakali v KiwiPie -

Did the double over our Blues brothers. Surely time for a name swap
Not to mention it was achieved with 3 of your 6 picking Moana to beat the Chiefs. Although Blues A are down to 4 with the disappearance of @Tim and @justin77

Normal service has resumed.

Most points error: Meant to tip Canes, not Moana.

The results have been posted https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/
Getting 6/6 results was relatively easy this week - getting margins correct was much more tricky and almost nobody scored for their category picks. Richie and Kruse shared top score with 47 a point ahead of Sportboy. Richie the only one to get 3 correct margins.
No big moves at the top and the ladder has formed into sets of 4. The top 4 are separated by 5 points and are 18 clear of the next 4 separated by 2 points who are 15 ahead of the next 4 separated by 5 points. In order Waynes World, Victor, Hydro11 and Triple T should be battling for the title with 3 weeks remaining with Mikey07, Winger, Kirwan and myself needing a big week to bridge the gap.
The Sequel Cup final is between Victor and Langakali - played over just a single round.
One more week of the round robin teams comp and Canes Black sealed their semi-final place while Blues B are almost there. The 4th spot is still open with SunJags needing to beat Canes Black to seal a place, Canes Gold and BOP Chiefs are waiting to pounce. Blues A, South Island, Canes Gold and SunJags all played a player short so getting a full team of 5 is a priority for them.

It was a tough week for the tipsters https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/
@gt12 was the only one to pass 50 with 3 margin picks (which was impressive given hardly anyone could pick a margin). The majority went against both the Canes and the Crusaders and nobody picked 6/6 - picking 5/6 were Victor, @Dan54 Laurence & @dK - of these only Dan54 passed 40 as did @rico1 due to picking all 4 categories for an extra 20 points.
Not huge movement at the top but with just 2 weeks left Victor leads by 2 from Hydro11 with Waynes World and Triple T falling away.
The ladder is complete and the Barbarians are the minor premiers. Canes Black and Blues B comfortably in the top 4 and meet next week. BOP Chiefs sneak in ahead of the SunJags on points scored and have the dubious pleasure of losing to the Barbarians next week.
Victor won the Sequel Cup, beating Langakali 37-24 and now with a chance of bagging the league/cup double.
