Antipodean was one of 4 to get 3/4 and made him top scorer for the weekend, a big improvement on previous form.
2 hours to tip. Make this the week you rise up the table, you just have to believe in yourself!
(Although picking the right winners and margins can help too!)
It is all live at https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/ and next week's tipping form is up. Tough week with nobody picking the Rebels, only 13% going for the Blues and Reds v Sharks split about 50/50. So given the Hurricanes game was basically an easy 20 points for most people (17+, most points, biggest margin), there were some badddddd scores - nobody picked 5/6.
Tim was best with 44, Dogmeat 43, Fiamacho 42 and then a whole posse on 41. No change at the top as all the top 3 scored 41 and moved away a little from the chasers. Hitting the top spot is proving bad news for some people as Sportboy, OomPB and Hooroo have all crashed out of the top 10 shortly afterwards. Joan and Mary still leads by 3 from Higgins with Hurrycanes a point back.
Voodoo scored lowest, just 17 after bizarrely ignoring the Hurricanes in the category picks.
Yet another win for the SunJags who are 5/5. Yet another defeat for Blues B who are 0/5.
In the Cup, Triple T and Higgins are into the semi-finals - Hurrycanes/Joan and Mary and Victor/Langakali have replays to decide.
Back to 7 games next weekend which is good news. All of @ACT-Crusader @Nevorian @Bones missing in action this week - get those tips in now for next week.
WARNING - Sunwolves game has switched to Australia and is being played on Friday afternoon. I won't be changing the tipping form but the deadline for your picks is now Friday at 4.45PM (NZ time)
TIP NOW - 90 minutes to go - https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/

I did. Think you swapped your Blues pick for the Canes ....

IT would have been in error if I picked the Blues in the original as I thought the travel etc would have been too much,
Quick report - the clear winner of the weekend was Fiamacho with 56 points, tipping all 7 games with 3 margins on a tough week for them (bar the Sunwolves of course). He climbs from 41 to 21 overall. Also getting 7/7 but just one margin is Broughie who scored 46 to move up to 4th and just 12 off the lead.
Joan and Mary still holds the lead by 1 from Hurrycanes and 5 from Higgins. She also made the Cup final where her opponent is Triple T.
Worst was Mikey07 with an astonishing season low of only 10 - picking only the Crusaders and Brumbies to win with incorrect margins. He contributed to the SunJags losing their 1st game of the season to the Barbarians who are now just 2 behind them in 2nd and level with Canes Black who are 3rd because of fewer points scored. Blues B had their 6th straight defeat, never losing by more than 3 points. @Nevorian has gone missing so their active 5 need to improve.

. We will have patience with u.Get your tips in everyone - the way things are going, the season may be juddering to a halt soon.
@Higgins said in Tipping 2020:
@KiwiPie So my anticipated 80 points might be enough to win the title if Joan and Mary along with Hurrycanes don't exceed 75 points!
You can get 80 points in this game? I call bullshit! I thought 40 was max.
Press conference from me at 6pm to discuss the implications for the country's premier tipping competition.
This. This is why I don't tip. Perennial bottom dwellers blues put almost 50 on recent finalists lions. Followed up by perennial champions crusaders absolutely struggling against perennial wooden Spooner's sunwolves.
Jags v Landers is off and the Super rugby competition is suspended (not sure about the Brumbies game today).
I will update the scores this weekend - treating the Jags v Landers game as a draw - but have had a sudden loss of enthusiasm!
As long as the scores are projected to take into account my planned late season surge up the board, I am happy to call it off 
7 days later
Right here we go - as we have no idea when the next week of tipping will be, I am going to stretch the announcement of Week 7 results over a whole week, a game per night.
So I have updated the Leaderboard and the Fixtures (and Cup) tabs on https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/ with the very low points scored given only 3 picked the Canes to win. Tomorrow we update after the Blues v Lions game for which Laurence, after being 1 of 3 to pick the Canes, was the only one to take the Lions.
@taniwharugby We could play future rounds by getting all of us to pick a scoreline for the rounds and then average out into a margin of victory. Maybe.
@KiwiPie said in Tipping 2020:
@voodoo Yeah definitely. Sport related ideas only please.
@voodoo Not a single like! 
@taniwharugby I did an emoji and apologised on the original post, I thought you could say anything after that!!! Kind of like leading with "no offence, but...
