@Donsteppa yea cos this rugby in Feb business is such a new thing
And every year I reminisce about the glory days of Super 12 starting in the first weekend of March. Now get off my lawn! (... there's a cricket pitch to mow...)
@Donsteppa you must be thinking of Super 10 even...I checked, 1997 first game of S12 was on last day of Feb 
@taniwharugby that must mean it's well over 20 years since they dropped the "Wellington" etc parts of the name. Interesting.
@taniwharugby shortest thread diversion in TSF history, damn you.
OK tippers, the first tipping form of the season is live now.
Bookmark this link as it won't change all season, just the form will be updated after each set of games. Last season's squads are also available thanks to Duluth
Appreciate anything you can do in terms of chasing people up.

@Crucial We'll still have the cup for our late season peaks.
Ah yes, the good old 'prolong the failure cup'.
Pure luck on my part in that one. Kept coming up against no shows and better players having bad weeks.
My tips are in.
I don't know why I do this to myself.
Like a junkie trying to kick the habit but knowing they don't have the motivation.
Havent watched a Super Rugby game in about a decade but here I am again picking at the scabs

There's an idea the "MN5 Cup" for those with a passing interest in rugby for the last 10-20 years unless it's the ABs.

I think my tips are in but did over the phone so may not have worked?
That'll be my excuse too. 
@dK said in TSF Super Rugby Tipping 2019:

@Tim said in TSF Super Rugby Tipping 2019:
Congrats to all those who are tipping a week early .
I went to and then thought I should add the veneer of competence by waiting to see who was actually taking the field.
@antipodean like that matter in week 1!
Only these people have tipped so far - can you fire up the people you know to make sure they join in again. I'll post to the main sports forum as well.

Look, I know we’ve all let you down.
We know your tipping is well, frankly, just too good for the lowly shit that the Sunjags have become since the fucking Japanese were allowed to join.
Nevertheless, without some of your special magic, we’re fucked before we begin.
So, how about a few tips? Just one more season before they no doubt cut us poor bastards again.

Done, probably needed a team called expats
That is pretty much the SunJags, they are a ramshackle bunch of over-achievers!
Good news that we're at 39 entries already and 40 is the minimum to run 8 teams. Hopefully we get to 48 and every team can dump a loser's score every week!
