TSF Super Rugby Tipping 2025
-
Results are in for Week 1 - see the leaderboard and related stats at https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/ - also the tipping form for Week 2 is live. https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/
Early leader is @Winger with 55, 2 of the category picks making up for getting the Blues result incorrect. @ACT-Crusader is a point behind, the only tipper to pick 5/5 in what was a tricky weekend. Triple T is on 53, the only other 50+ scorer. Last with only 6 points is @allblackfan behind @Kirwan on 11 who managed an impressive 0/0 picks. @BartMan with only 13 not much better.
Teams have been assigned so that all teams have 6 except for Barbarians and Blues B. Check the leaderboard to see which team you are in. Any tippers who played last season and wished to stay in the same team are in that team. If your chosen team was full you have been assigned to fill a gap elsewhere. I hope all tippers set themselves a reminder to tip every week - or do your tips now to avoid forgetting. If you tip again before the games, I will use your most recent set of tips.
First weekend bonus point wins for South Island and Barbarians see them on maximum points with narrow wins for BOP Chiefs and Blues A.

@KiwiPie cheers for the acknowledgement, i had hoped to hide my shame at being last by staying quiet but no, not to be
. Apologies to my team mates, hopefully will do better this week. -

Just a friendly reminder to @rico1, you've been around so long you are almost a life member of the Barbarians and your presence and expertise is almost taken for granted. Hopefully the early kick off caught you out and you will be back to bolster our challenge for the Championship this week.

https://thesilverfern.com/tipping-submit/It doesn't look like he has been online since the end of last season. I left the spot open as @rico1 is a long term regular. Likewise I left a spot for @Fonzie in Blues B after @BartMan was expecting him to enter

It’s all downhill from here….

@rico1 I'm thinking you can still finish above @ACT-Crusader - it's a long old season.

That’s brutal.
Brutally honest.

I've outsourced my tipping to Grok3. Yes, I'm using a reasoning model sledgehammer to crack a nut.

@Kirwan hopefully you get better outcomes using AI than I did

Well, it probably would help if I waited until the teams are named....
Will use the new DeepSearch agent next week so it can search all the information it needs. Has a million token context, so I'll keep it running and see if it improves.

Interested in the results. My new work is Ozzie based company so I'm in an AFL comp - and I've got no idea! All I know is singlets and really tight shorts

Less than 4 hours to get your tips in https://thesilverfern.com/tipping-submit/
Just a few missing from what I can see.

That was a pretty tough round with nobody at all picking the Force and only 7 going for the Highlanders. @KiwiMurph the best score with 43, picking 4/5 along with @SouthernMann @Joan-and-Mary Richie & @rico1 - Richie with the next best score of 38.
KiwiMurph now leads overall by 6 from Triple T with @ACT-Crusader dropping down to 3rd. @delicatessen & @Nevorian turned up late and @NTA never turned up at all.
2 wins from 2 for South Island, BOP Chiefs and Blues A, a first win for the SunJags and questions being asked about the 2 Canes teams and Blues B - all 3 teams with 2 defeats from 2.
The Cup will start in Week 4 - the top 32 scorers from next week will go into the first round so get your tips in on time. https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/

@KiwiPie sheesh I thought I was doomed for mid teens score. Still holding down top 3 after two rounds would be a personal record!
