@KiwiPie Sorry to hear about your dad, stay strong. Would love to tip again in your competition. Still do the teams?

We certainly do - still the same format

KiwiPie

We're live! (thanks to @Duluth)

Go to https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping

and click on Submit Tips to enter the competition. Select your usual team and for new players, select the team you want to play for or select Individual/I Need a Team.

All of the stats are showing last year's NPC currently but will be updated once I get things rolling.

In.

Also, is anyone keen on a $20 side bet for who finishes higher?

Good on you for getting the tipping going again KP.

Sorry to hear about your Dad, Kia kaha mate.

Condolences @KiwiPie, not a nice trip to have to make.

I don't recognise half those tipsters names, though mine is least there scoring the wooden spoon title 😭😀.

Better be more organised this year!

I've updated the tables to show last season's Super tipping results - as a spur to either improve or maintain your standard.

@hydro11 won with @Corkscrew in 2nd and @mikedogz in 3rd. The SunJags beat the BOP Chiefs to win the team competition.

12 entries so far - amazingly there are only 4 days left to get your tips in.

Sssshhhhhhh the lesser the better!

OomPB

KP you can add me to the SunJags team if they have enough tippers otherwise BaaBaas.

@KiwiPie I'm waiting for the team announcements to give the illusion that I am putting some thought into my tips.

@taniwharugby The other one is on superbru.com and I think Crucial organises setting that one up.

KPs is the best but I have re-activated and re-named the SuperBru one. Those that have participated before should get an invite email. If new or didn't receive email go to superbru.com, log in and search to join pool named TSFSUPER20

I get a bit sick of losing this comp so have changed it up to a new format. If we get enough people it should be fun. I don't know the exact details but it is more like KPs Cup rounds in that players play head to head on a draw each week. Instead of knockout though you score points based on win/draw/lose based on your tipping and that translates to a table. Guess we will have to play it to see.

Have 9 players in for this side comp. Thanks to all. Anyone can join. Just join or log in to Superbru.com and search for TSFSUPER20 as a pool.

I've already tipped, safe in the knowledge that it won't make much difference.

Bones

KP condolences, kia Kaha eh.

I will refrain from enforcing my atrocious tipping on canes black unless absolutely required.

ignore that. We have some late entries and it looks like the software shuffles things around when doing a re-draw.

Will post the match up later in the week or after cut off for first match. Welcome aboard DK and Average Joe

That person only tipped Crusaders by 9-16 and not 17+ so likely not the original. 😉

Duluth

@voodoo

I think so.. I believe he tips every year.

He just doesn't think we are worthy of speaking to anymore

Hard to argue with that I guess

ACT Crusader

I’m due.

KiwiPie

Just in case anyone still can't find out where to tip (and it hasn't moved for a couple of years since @Duluth did his great work in giving it a permanent home

Bookmark it etc.

Looking good so far with 34 entries (40 is the minimum we need and there are a few who like to leave it late) and a lot of the usual suspects back (plus a couple of newcomers). I'll post into the main forum to see if we can pick up some more new players.

I have meticulously studied the team sheets of 1 of the teams playing, thrown a few darts at a wall and made my picks for the week!

With this kind of prep, you guys are all done, done I tell ya!

Your over thinking it..

taniwharugby

@Virgil better than underthinking that I usually do...see, you are in big trouble!

dogmeat

@taniwharugby Nah I've tried that method in the past. I reckon / hope going for the team with the nicest jerseys and / or coolest name is a sure thing. e.g. Some punters might think Blues vs Chiefs is going to be close but if you bother to put in some in depth analysis. Blues - it ain't exactly a happy state of being. Chiefs - the boss man. Plus Blues - a jersey shattered (dreams) vs (for the purposes of analysis I ignore away jerseys) black. It's a no brainer.

taniwharugby

@dogmeat nah I have a process and with the indepth analysis, this is gonna be easy, you wait and see!
