            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.

                    The results are in https://silverfern.rugby/tipping/

                    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 @Corkscrew

                    A 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.

                        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.

                            Tipping results are posted https://silverfern.rugby/tipping/

                            A wide range of scores this weekend which meant a bit of movement overall. Picking 6/7 and topping the scorers were @Chris with 47 and @Corkscrew who made the only correct category pick (Southland as low scorers). Overall, after taking the lead last weekend, @jamsb crashed down to 7th scoring only 23 which means that @Laurence is back on top, 5 points clear of Corkscrew with @barky1 in 3rd, Propsicle 4th and @Justin77 up to 5th. 3 rounds to go and all to play for.

                            The round robin is over, playoffs start next weekend. Only 2 points between BOP in 1st and Hawke's Bay missing out on the play-offs, with Northland 2nd on total points scored ahead of Wellington in 3rd and Counties-Waikato in 4th. Results were unpredictable all season except for Harbour-Auckland losing every game.

                            In the Cup Final, after the 1st leg Barky1 leads Propsicle by 33 to 30.

                            Missing tippers (the number is growing every week) were @Hurrycanes @MacDazzler @DurryMexted @trooa ian_pop, @Yeetyaah Glen @Canes4life & @Tim

                                You're too late to win the whole thing - but as part of the Counties-Waikato team, they need you for the playoffs - so yes please come back

                                        The week's results are in https://silverfern.rugby/tipping/ and the form for week 9 is live - Thursday game this week so tip early.

                                        Best of the weekend was @Chris with 46 just ahead of @Winger (45) and @hydro11 (44). Nobody at all picked Otago to win and very few went for Counties and Waikato and only @ploughboy picked 5/7.

                                        The effect has been to close the title race right up with just 2 weeks to go. There is a 3 way tie between @justin77 @Laurence & Propsicle with Winger in 4th a point back and @Corkscrew another point back in 5th. 1st to 9th are covered by 10 points so plenty can still come through to win.

                                        Counties-Waikato beat the minor premiers BOP and will contest the final against Wellington who thrashed Northland. The final (and other placings) are decided over 2 legs for the final 2 weeks.

                                        Propsicle wins the TSF Cup beating @barky1 over 2 legs.
