Tipping 2020

Results are up to date at https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/
Paj topped all scorers this week with 57, both results and margins picked. He went for Crusaders 33-34 Hurricanes which was very accurate - not so accurate for going for 6 tries apiece! He's up to 13th but still 52 behind TR who through consistent accumulation finds himself with a lead of 22 over Winger. DK also into the top 10 with the 2nd highest score of 51.
TR into the final of the TSF Cup with Sportboy. Played out over the next 2 weekends.

Goodness in the space of a couple of weeks I have gone from being just seven or so points behind TR in second place to sixth place and forty four points from him. Still having a policy of not picking the Hurricanes whenever they have JGB in their starting lineup as there is absolutely no way the can possibly win has not been all that successful!

@KiwiPie aye, I did them on Friday
I tipped the Highlanders anyway (in the 2 comps that recorded my scores)...
bigger lead than I was planning on giving sportboy in the cup...
@taniwharugby A game of two halves maybe as the wind was blowing very strongly in the first half, obviously behind sportboy!

@taniwharugby and what a victory it will be when you take down Sportboy - let's face it, if anyone can blow a 45 point lead, he can

Go to https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/ to see how you got on this weekend. Best scoring of the competition so far with both results fairly predictable. Triple T with a massive 74, 5 out of 8 category picks correct. Kruse with 70 to keep the pressure on Winger, but he scored 69 to keep a 10 point lead going into the final weekend.
Joan and Mary on 69 to move up to 3rd but there are only 12 points between 3rd and 10th. Hooroo managed just 7 points, continuing to believe in the Chiefs and suffering accordingly.
TR beat Sportboy in the 2nd leg of the cup final but still lost by 38 points.

Sorry for the delay but I closed off the competition by adding any points scored for the Highlanders v Hurricanes game - to be honest there weren't many and there were a fair few zeroes for people who actually tipped.
Virgil, Joan and Mary and Richie were the only 3 to pick a Highlanders win and Virgil top scored with 25, moving him into 3rd overall with Joan and Mary moving up to 2nd. Winger took the title despite scoring just 2 points.

At the moment, I still plan to run NPC Tipping ... we'll see what happens.

@dogmeat at least @Virgil didnt hack in and delete your tips so he could get 3rd!
Thanks @KiwiPie
I ain’t that smart or learned, to me computers are that device that used to be mine but now is taken up 99% of the time by my 8 year old watching random YouTube videos and playing games.

My lowest ever score I think. I'm surprised I keep my lead (a lead due to TR not tipping one week).
And thanks for running again KiwiPie

Who's keen to have an NPC tipping competition whatever form the NPC takes?
Yes please!

I'm in. Will be seeing a couple of the Wai-Bush team up at Hataitai Park for the Wellington v Poneke match so will put them on notice to be ready to go for the opening round when they invariably hit me up for the losers shout during the aftermatch function!
