    @bones Yeah, watching your performances in these competitions has been underwhelming, but don’t be so hard on yourself.

        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.

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

                  @kiwipie Really? I thought I'd double checked.

                  I normally wait until a few weeks into the season before I get my picks arse about. 😞

                      Only around 20 have tipped so far this week - is it hard for people to remember to do something 2 weeks in a row? Or maybe you want to give yourself the maximum thinking time.

                        You start 5 behind the worst tipper last week - so would you have 13 points. And plenty of people will forget to tip as the weeks go by and you will fly past them

                          Probably because the teams haven't been named for the second match

                            @duluth They have now and after looking at that Hurricanes lineup it is a pity a 17++ is not one of the options.

                              A quick update after Game 1 not at all connected to the fact that I picked the Highlanders to win. All these people picked them too, Delicatessen & Fiamacho with 9-16.

                              Delicatessen 34
                              Fiamacho 28
                              ACT Crusader 24
                              Rico 24
                              KP 23
                              Stockcar86 23
                              Corkscrew 20
                              Richie 16

                              which leaves the top 10 looking like this

                              Winger 80
                              ACT Crusader 78
                              Triple T 78
                              Stockcar86 77
                              KP 75
                              Antipodean 70
                              Langakali 69
                              Higgins 69
                              Victor 68
                              Rico 68

                              Plenty of people picked and have zero so far. These people didn't pick at all

                                  The results are ready and available at https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/

                                  Rico top scored with 62 points, a great score on a week when most people went for the Highlanders. Winger still leads through getting 39 points for the Crusaders game alone, 11 clear of ACT Crusader with Victor 3rd and Rico and Stockcar86 level in 4th.

                                  Paj scored only 6 points, showing a touching faith in the Hurricanes.

                                      If you haven't tipped then the first game has almost started - well actually the first game is on Saturday but tip now then you can relax all weekend.

                                        The results are ready and available at https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/

                                        Rico top scored with 62 points, a great score on a week when most people went for the Highlanders. Winger still leads through getting 39 points for the Crusaders game alone, 11 clear of ACT Crusader with Victor 3rd and Rico and Stockcar86 level in 4th.

                                        Paj scored only 6 points, showing a touching faith in the Hurricanes.

                                        The tipping form is ready for next weekend.

                                        Shut the comp down now....

                                        Sorry too late shutting it down but you did prove your point!

                                          Results are in

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

                                          Kruse was the only one to pick both games 17+ to the home team and with one more try to the Crusaders he would have been close to a perfect 80 points. 71 was good enough to put him 3rd overall. I move up to 2nd based on picking the result for all 6 games so far (Corkscrew is also 6/6) but Winger still leads, a healthy gap of 17 points. Richie managed just 18 to be the lowest scorer of the round.

                                          Finally I received some tips from "Dannh" on Saturday afternoon - were these from Danny as you had already tipped a few days before?
