    yeah, have to say trying to do the math to make sure the number of tries made the score and spread possible...was tedious

    It doesn't have to be possible - each selection is scored separately so you can be cautious and pick team A to win 9-16 and team B to score more points that team A.

      @kiwipie Personally I like the extra options as there only 2 games each week, so adds to fun.

        It’s a whole new element really. To get a big score you have to align your predictions but that involves a risk of a very low score.
        You can also try and hedge your bets a bit but that will result in a maximum of a mediocre score

                Finally, if you are more likely to notice a Facebook post to a TSF post, I always post a tipping reminder in our FB group which you can ask to join if you are new to tipping.

                  It seems a 2 horse race this year with a big improver in the Highlanders in third place with the Canes and Chiefs fighting it out for the bottom spot.

                  I backed both teams I want to lose. Crusaders as them always winning is boring. And Blues because they play the Canes. Although maybe with the Blues they might be able to win this year so not too upset if they win well looking like title contenders. But not too well.

                    Missing from last year at this stage appear to be @barbarian @Bones @Canes4life @Caprice @fiamacho @gt12 @gunner @hydro11 @voodoo
                    Looks to be a few newcomers this year which is good but they could well be returning tippers tipping under a different name this season. Good Luck to everyone!

                    Still time to get you tips in before the first games kicks off at 7.05pm NZ Summer Time

                                      Results are in for Week 1. Now all you have to do is remember to tip for the next 9 weeks.

                                      https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/

                                      The reigning champion Winger is already out in the lead with a superb 73 points, almost perfect selections except for being a bit low on the points for the Highlanders and Crusaders. Triple T is just 2 behind with Antipodean, Arhs and Crucial rounding out the top 5.

                                      Only Winger, Triple T, Unite and Donsteppa picked both games 9-16 to the away team but the latter 2 fell down on their category picks. Richie is 45th and last, the only one to pick the Highlanders and the Hurricanes to win.

                                        If anybody's interested in doing the SuperBru one again, I've created a pool called "TheSilverFern".
                                        If people are not bothered, but only because they didn't pick Round One - I can configure it to only count from Round 2 onwards.

                                          If anybody's interested in doing the SuperBru one again, I've created a pool called "TheSilverFern".
                                          If people are not bothered, but only because they didn't pick Round One - I can configure it to only count from Round 2 onwards.

                                          I am already entered so I did pick Round 1 - but happy if you start for Round 2. Will join, thanks!
