NPC Tipping 2025
-
Just got them in!
-
TIP EARLY THIS COMING WEEK - OPENING GAME IS ON THURSDAY NIGHT.
Results are updated after the weekend https://silverfern.rugby/tipping/
Nobody at all picked Taranaki as top scorers and BoP as low scorers. Picking 6/7 results were @jamsb Plastered Peni @ploughboy @bayimports & @Chris with Chris top scoring with 46. @george33 showing an uncanny knack of picking the wrong winner scoring just 12 and forcing all the non tippers to have just 7 points.
@Laurence still leads but only by 2 from @hydro11 with @jamsb up to 3rd. Wellington wins again with their 3rd bonus point win, also wins for BOP and first wins of the season for Counties-Waikato and Northland. The Cup is into the last 16 - no ties this weekend. Missing tippers were @trooa @Kruse @Yeetyaah Glen @Canes4life @Tim and @BorderJB was late again.

@Kruse not to worry, unsure many would have had Southland so you will have the same points as most still

Don't you get an Away 17+ for a missed tip if you are late with your tips? If so then it turns out to be an inspired tactic!

Nah I ditched that rule a long time ago (for this very reason). You get zilch, nada, nothing. If you don't submit at all you get 5 points less than the lowest score of someone who put their tips in on time.

If you think your tipping score was terrible at the weekend, you're in good company - we were nearly all terrible. https://silverfern.rugby/tipping/
Best was 5/7 picks by @Corkscrew and a top score of 39, 4/7 for @Joan-and-Mary & @MacDazzler and only 1/7 for some - if they picked Counties to win. Season low score of 7 for @george33 & @Duluth
No real change at the top but Corkscrew moves up from 20th to 6th overall. We've reached the last 8 in the Cup. Joan and Mary very unlucky to lose as the 2nd highest scorer of the weekend.
Wellington and BOP tie their game so Wellington still unbeaten. Only 4 points cover 2nd to 7th on the ladder.

An easier week and almost everyone picked 5/7, missing out on the Northland and Southland wins. @Landers92 with the top score of 52 getting both Canterbury and Harbour as the category picks. 49 for @barky1 & @Kirwan
Not much change at the top with @Laurence increasing the lead to 5 ahead of @hydro11 and Propsicle up into 3rd ahead of @jamsb . The Cup semi-finals will be
Plastered Peni v Barky1
Propsicle v @CorkscrewA first defeat of the season for Wellington who lead by 2 from BOP and Counties-Waikato with Hawke's Bay making up the top 4. 2 more rounds of games to decide the semi-finalists and 7 teams still in contention as the Bush and Northland still have to play the hopeless Harbour-Auckland.

Remember the first game of the round is tonight so get your tips in soon https://silverfern.rugby/tipping-submit/

The results are in - remember there is another Thursday night game this week so tip early. https://silverfern.rugby/tipping/
The week was OK for tipping until Sunday with 2 big upsets, only 3 picking a Steamers win and only 2 going for Auckland. The best results picked was 5/7 for @barky1 @taniwharugby Richie & @MacDazzler But the best score was 44 for @antipodean with 2 margins correct and both category picks (Canterbury & Northland).
We have a new leader, @jamsb now leads by 2 from @Laurence with Propsicle 3rd, @barky1 up to 4th and Plastered Peni dropping to 5th. Still only 20 points between 1st and 13th so plenty are still in contention for the title.
In the teams comp, with one week of round robin left there are 6 teams still battling for the top 4 - 4 points from Counties-Waikato in 1st and Northland in 6th.
Finally in the Cup, the final will be between Barky1 & Propsicle - to be played out over the next 2 weekends.
