TSF Mitre 10 Cup Tipping 2018
-
We are all done for the season .... and the winners are
Langakali is the overall champion - just holding on in the closest finish for years. 4 points was the winning margin over the fast finishing Gunner who moved up from 7th to 2nd in the final week. Fiamacho also on the podium but left to rue tipping late and missing the easy 10 in the first game that would have won the title.
Northland win the team title with a late run on the final game - 4 maximums and a 7 to Wellington's collection of 7s meant their team scored 3 more points overall to win by just a single point with the average score. Gunner and Cactus Jack cancelled each other out with superb 64s and TR's 59 was critical to the win.
Finally Tim wins the TSF Cup by an embarrassing 33 points but Crucial did have to gamble in the final week - but missed tipping the only upset of the round.
More tomorrow but I have updated all the files at https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/

Strong finish for Northland, just like the real team, only this time we didn't let the opposition get out to an unassailable lead!
Great comp as always KP, your work is appreciated!

Congrats @Tim
A deserved win. I somehow flunked my run to the final much like England in the 2007 RWC.
Still had a chance in the last round but should have known better than to put faith in teams with ‘North’ in their names.. -
Thanks KP - great competition as always - appreciate all the work you put into it

@kiwipie I reckon me, J77, FarNorthHayden & Gunner would all have been in the 2008 squad!
It was the fresh face of Fiamacho that helped though

I dug it out of the archive - Northland team photo from 2008 (man, look at those hairstyles) along with their overall placing
