It's tipping time everyone

Results are in https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/ - I did do a write-up but accidentally lost it all and don't have time to write it again!

Thankfully most others were caught out by the round of upsets.

Update time: Given that for the first 3 games the winners were picked by 9%, 11% and 7%, high scoring was never on the cards. @Corkscrew had 4/5 winners selected by going the home team 1-8 but had no categories so only 35 points. @ACT-Crusader had the best score of 40 followed by @Hurrycanes (38) & @Canes4life (37) who only picked 2 matches but had 3/4 categories. All of ACT Crusader, @KiwiMurph @Chris @mikedogz @dogmeat @george33 picked 3/5. The very worst score was @NTA with 6 and @mikey07 managed 8.
ACT Crusader now leads by 12 from @hydro11 with KiwiMurph in 3rd. In the TSF Cup, @BorderJB sneaked his replay with @Winger but was knocked out in the next round. 16 people are into the next round.
In the battle of the unbeaten teams, South Island made it 4/4 against Blues A and in the battle of the unwinning teams, Canes Black thrashed Blues B.
The notable missing tipster is @dK who has been playing since we started back in 2006 - does anyone have a direct contact route?

The results are updated at https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/
Big scores this week especially if you picked the Canes over the Highlanders - 42% did that. 5/5 for @hydro11 @gt12 Langakali, @Winger @Paj @Hurrycanes @Dolamite @Kruse @Waynes-World @dogmeat @frugby Victor &@BorderJB - well done to them. Kruse hit 3/4 categories for a season high 69 ahead of GT12 and frugby with 66. @Kirwan & @dK were missing making Blues B almost certain wooden spoon winners.
Reigning champ Hydro11 has hit the overall lead, the king of the margin picks with 13/25 games this season picked with the correct margin - 3 ahead of Unite who is the next best. The lead is 6 over @ACT-Crusader with GT12 surging up to 3rd.
The BOP Chiefs squeaked past South Island for their first defeat of the season and these 2 along with Blues A sit at 4 wins out of 5 at the top of the table. The Sunjags scored a season high 57 to move into playoff contention with Canes Black sharing a 55-55 thriller.
All the TSF Cup games were decided with no ties so the quarter-final pairings are

Not an easy week for scoring with only the Chiefs and Force winning picked by the majority and there was a key shift of points when the Force pipped the Chiefs for top scorers. https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/
Picking 4/5 were @Hurrycanes @frugby @BartMan @Joan-and-Mary and picking the Force as top scorers pushed Bart to the highest score of 43, just 1 ahead of frughy and Hurrycanes and also @george33 who had 2 category picks. A solid 36 for @ACT-Crusader has bounced him back to the top by 11 points as @hydro11 crashed to only 19 and is now level in 2nd with @gt12 - Hurrycanes @Winger and @Chris are level in 4th, 5 points further back. @rico1 managed just 2 points and @antipodean didn't turn up.
In the TSF Cup, wins and semi-final spots for Langakali, @Kruse @Canes4life and a draw between @paj and Triple T means they replay - first one to get ahead next weekend takes it.
Finally in the teams comp, wins for South Island, BOP Chiefs & Blues A see them pulling clear of the pack with the SunJags in 4th after they disposed of the Barbarians with ease - all their scoring players scored higher than all of the Barbarians players.
Next weekend there is only 4 games so it will be a maximum of 15 points for each game, 12 for correct and close, 8 for correct but far away. I've left game 5 on the form so the spreadsheet of picks doesn't get affected but you don't have to make a choice for that game.

Only 4 games to pick this weekend so no excuse not to do it. 3 hours to go https://thesilverfern.com/tipping-submit/

The results are in https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/
Only one person picked Moana to beat the Crusaders and that was @Kirwan - the only 4/4 tipper and top scorer with 57. @delicatessen did well on categories and a Canes 17+ pick to score 52 and only 6 more players managed 40 or more. One of those was @hydro11 who closed the gap at the top to 3 points but @ACT-Crusader still leads almost half-way through the season. Langakali is up to 3rd, knocking @gt12 down to 4th.
Worst of the weekend was @SouthernMann managing just 1/4 and 14 points. Missing tippers were @dK yet again and @george33
In the TSF Cup, Triple T beat @Paj in a replay by picking the margin the Brumbies game but then lost in the semi to @Canes4life who will play Langakali in the final (who beat @Kruse in the other semi).
Half-way through the round robin of the teams comp, the BOP Chiefs took the lead thrashing Blues A in a top of the table clash while South Island lost to the Barbarians. Still all teams except Blues B have a chance of making the semi-finals.
