<p>Correct, just scanned down the list but then noticed you had re-tipped - fool!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As we're all still enthusiastic - the latest scores and the table so far. WtW leads - he picked up a maximum for the Brumbies (the only one) but missed the Blues margin. </p>

<p>Mikedogz, I am upset you didn't have faith in Tana.</p>

<p>Been thinking about bonus points - as the 4 try bonus point has changed, I'm changing the bonus point system as well. Looking back at the stats for last season, maximum scores average between 1 in 4 and 1 in 3 and a team will thus average 10-13 for their 5 scoring players. A team will score a bonus point for getting 3 more maximums than their opponents. Losing bonus point is still for within 7.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So far the maximum total is</p>
<p> </p>
<div style="margin:0px;color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">BOP Chiefs 5 - 5 Hurricanes Gold</div>
<div style="margin:0px;color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Blues A 6 - 5 Hurricanes Black</div>
<div style="margin:0px;color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Blues B 7 - 2 Barbarians</div>
<div style="margin:0px;color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">South Island 2 - 5 SunJags</div>

<p>Week 1 is over and it is online at <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.eglobal.co.nz/tsfs16/tsf.htm'>http://www.eglobal.co.nz/tsfs16/tsf.htm</a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Justin77 was the only 8/8 tipper but he sits in second behind Crucial who picked 5/8 maximums. Big wins for Blues A and the all new SunJags but it is the SunJags who top the table due to picking up the only "attacking" bonus point. </p>

<p>That's it. Stop the comp right here and now. I claim victory!</p>

<p>The BOP Chiefs and Hurricanes Gold fought out a thrilling 46-46 draw. The Chiefs stars were Hooroo and Donsteppa with 50+ but Midge flopped meaning that Sportboy's moderate 36 had to be included in the team score. Canes Gold had Antipodean to thank for the draw, his 58 was the 3rd best of the weekend and Glath also topped 50. But 3 below 40 points dragged down their final score, the dropped player being Plastered Peni with 36.<br><br>
Blues A whipped Hurricanes Black 52-44, Blues A being driven to the best team score of the weekend by Justin77, Tim and KiwiMurph with 61, 56 and 54 and JK and TR's solid scores kept the final total high - and Virgil's miserable 34 was discared. Canes Black had nobody 50+, the best Gibbit and Hurrycanes with 46 and all of their 6 tippers were 40+.<br><br>
Blues B squeaked past the Barbarians 45-43, a great result for a virtually new line-up. DK and Gunner topped 50 and the rest did enough not to drag the score down. The Barbarians were staunchly average, newcomer Stargazer the best at only 46 - a losing bonus point their only compensation.<br><br>
The new team the SunJags beat a miserable South Island outfit 43-35 and collected the only margin bonus point to lead the table. The leaderboard is still calling their players Saffas but I will sort that out soon! Hydro the only SunJag to top 50, and Handsome Ray and Mikedogz struck only 31 to keep their score down so that only their opponents scored lower. The South Island's highest was only 41 by Redeye and they had the 2 lowest of the weekend, MooshLD on 24 and Timslim on 21. Plenty of work for them at training this week.<br><br>
Crucial is playing as an individual and leads overall with 62 just ahead of Justin77 and Antipodean. Crucial will be drafted into any team where a player doesn't tip for 2 consecutive weeks (as will WtW and Mariner4Life).</p>

<p>Week 2 looks a hard one. Some even match ups in there and difficult to tell which teams will bounce back from round 1 defeats.</p>

<p>Come on tipsters, don't give up after one week! Plenty of absentees with only 7 hours until kick-off.</p>

<p>Missing tipsters this week are KiwiMurph, MooshLD, Bullethole & Handsome Ray. ACT was late to tip and so missed his correct pick of 9-16 to the Saders.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We have gained Phooey and MN5 as tippers and Phooey and Timslim are the leaders so far with 17/20. Nobody picked Brumbies 17+ and most who picked the Crusaders went for 1-8. Antipodean started in 3rd but hasn't got a point so far.</p>

<p>Get those tips in people.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If you missed last week, a failure to have tipped by 7.35pm tonight will mean you will be dropped from your team and one of the individuals will be promoted.</p>

No don't get your tips in, don't listen to KP<br>
The more of you that forget to tip the better. Especially the 130 odd above me on the leaderboard

<p>Sorry for the lack of updates this weekend, too many other things to do.</p>

Ouch

<p>A lot of movement in the individual leaderboard this weekend. The 2 previous joint leaders are now 21st (WtW) and 15th (Crucial) meaning that Hydro is now 16 points clear as he had the best round of the weekend (61) which was his 3rd consecutive score over 50. Higgins moves up to 2nd spot with other big rises into the top 10 for Chaz, Hurrycanes, Redeye, Wildman, Winger, Unite and Stargazer. With big risers come big fallers and others to drop out of the top 10 were Gunner, Tim, Hooroo, KP and Stockcar86 with the lowest score of only 23.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>No 7/7 tippers this week with the Stormers/Sharks catching out all those who picked the first 6. Plenty had the Chiefs as top scorers for a 5 point bonus. Midge had 5 perfect picks.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Some team changes following demotions for tippers absent 2 weeks running :-</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Phooey and Mariner4Life replace Bullethole and MooshLD for the South Island.</p>
<p>Crucial is in or KiwiMurph for Blues A.</p>
<p>For the SunJags, Joan and Mary replaces Handsome Ray.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>On a warning are Gibbit and Timslim.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The SunJags lead the comp with 3/3 beating a mediocre Blues A. Hydro was the standout with the rest of the team average at best. Justin77 with 45 the best for Blues A who mustered only 3 maximums between them compared to the SunJags with 10.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Barbarians move up to 2nd with a hard-fought 48-45 over the BOP Chiefs. 3 50+ scores for Triple T, Higgins and Stargazer were the key against the 2 for the Chiefs (Midge and Unite).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The South Island thrashed Blues B and had the highest team score of 50. Their lowest counting score was a solid 46 and the standout was 56 for Wildman. Meanwhile Blues B's best score (43 for DK and Dogmeat) shows how far behind they were.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Finally in the Hurricanes Derby, Gold triumphed over Black thanks to Chaz and Winger with the rest of the team solid. For Black Victor and Hurrycanes reached 50 but Stockcar86's 23 had to be counted due to Gibbit's absence.</p>

<p>Be warned, the links to the tipping form and responses for Week 4 are still pointing to Week 3's form and responses - I will sort this out tonight.</p>

<p>Afraid we're going to get all the "in conference" games ....</p>

My Bulls tip nearly paid off. Thanks to the Shorks missing a sitter to win there is no damage done.

<p>With the Chiefs game still to come and 2 draws this weekend and some blow-outs, scoring has been difficult this week.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Best so far is Cactus Jack with 40 and Donsteppa, Redeye, Paj & Triple T have also picked 5/5 to date. </p>

<p>Your weekly report:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The BOP Chiefs triumphed over the previously unbeaten SunJags by 33-31 - Hooroo was the main man with 42, well supported by Donsteppa and Midge. Unite was discarded with only 19 which meant Sportboy's 24 had to be counted even though he turned up late. The SunJags had no 40+, the best being Bones with 37, Mikedogz and Hydro also passed 30. Joan and Mary were discarded with only 19. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>The South Island beat Blues A 35-33. Redeye starred with 45, backed up by Phooey and ACT Crusader. Wildman didn't turn up at all. Blues A had 45 from Crucial and a good score from Virgil but the rest sucked and Tim and JK shared the low score of 24.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Canes Black whipped Blues B 38-29. Cactus Jack was the hero with overall top score of 50, Stockcar86 and Hurrycanes chipped in well and Gibbit's 24 could be discarded. Blues B had a best of 37 by Gunner and DK's 19 was discarded meaning they had to count 2 scores of 24. The only attacking bonus point of the week went to Canes Black.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Finally the Barbarians squeaked past Canes Gold 31-29. Waynes World managed 40 and Triple T 37 and that was about all for the Baabaas - Stargazer's 19 was discarded. Canes Gold's best was 35 for Chaz with 22 from Winger discarded. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>The SunJags stay on top despite their defeat with the Barbarians close behind and the BOP Chiefs and the South Island also in the play-off spots. Canes Black are off the bottom with their first win leaving the Blues teams rooted - much as usual for Blues teams.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In the individual comp, the only 2 to pick 6/6 were Cactus Jack and Redeye who moved up to 3rd and 2nd respectively. First average week for Hydro but he still leads by 9. Also moving up were Crucial and Hooroo into the top 10. Tumbling down were Winger, DK and Wildman who failed to tip.</p>

<p>A public holiday today so many of us will be out of our normal routines. I myself will be heading out to watch a match in the opening round of the 2016 Club Season here in Wellington and then maybe off to take in the Canes v Kings game later on (dependent on the result of the game I'm taking in - there is a wager at stake and the four jugs might take me a bit of time to consume!). Maybe might even bump into Canes4life if he is up at Lyndhurst Park checking out any new talent that might be on the field.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Just a reminder to make sure you get your tips in on time, and that is especially pertinent to those that might have been out with injury the last couple of weeks. Get you tips in so you don't let your team mates down.........................................</p>

<p>2 games in and plenty of people went for 2 x 17+ and everyone who tipped picked both results. Missing tippers are TR, Wildman and Glath and Tim missed the first game.</p>

<p>Another thrilling week in the world of TSF Tipping and for once, most of the games went to form. As usual, some of the margins were hard to pick (Bulls, Tahs with close wins, Highlanders 17+ away from home) and your performance largely rested on a. getting your tips in on time and b. picking the Crusaders and Stormers to win. Broughie and Stargazer topped all scorers with 68/80 and 8/8 results. Midge also went 8/8 while Hydro and Donsteppa missed one result each but had 5 maximums in total. Hydro extended his lead to 16 over Redeye with Donsteppa storming up to 3rd. New entrants to the top 10 were Midge, Triple T and Stargazer - Chaz crashed down from 4th to 16th with the worst total of the weekend and just 4/8 results picked.<br><br>
Bonus point wins for the SunJags and Barbarians keep them at 1 and 2 on the ladder, a win for the BOP Chiefs solidifies their 3rd spot and the win for Blues B lifts them to 6th and just 3 points behind the South Island in 4th.<br><br>
The BOP Chiefs beat the South Island 55-48 with Midge and Donsteppa starring at 60+ and KP and Unite in the low 40s did not hurt too much. The South Island's Wildman did not turn up and Redeye and ACT Crusader were the only 50+ scores.<br><br>
The Blues derby went the way of the B team by 56-50. Broughie's superb 68 was backed up well by the team with a relatively high 48 able to be discarded. For the As, TR and Tim went to Eden Park instead of North Harbour and the rest were OK but with nothing higher than a 53.<br><br>
The Barbarians beat Canes Black 58-52, their season high total based on Stargazer's 68 and Triple T's 60 with the rest all backing them solidly. Solid from the Canes Black but with no outstanding performer, Stockcar86 and Paj with 55 apiece.<br><br>
Finally the new team the SunJags continued their outstanding start, Hydro their star yet again with 61 but with 50+ from all the other counting tippers. They beat the Canes Gold 55-47 and Gold were the lowest of the weekend, Plastered Peni and Antipodean the only 50+ scores.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>in hindsight, texting Tim to ask where the game was, was obviously a poor decision! </p>

<p>Good turnout this week, only Gibbit missing of the team players. Wildman is gone for good so Richie steps up for the South Island to bring them back up to 6. WtW has disappeared also but hopefully returns.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Everyone went Highlanders, those to pick 9-16 were DK, Dogmeat, Unite, Paj, Stockcar86, Chaz, Redeye, ACT Crusader, Joan and Mary, Bones and GT12. Timslim was too late to count for game 1.</p>

<p>Update with one game to go - some close games here. For potential high/low scorers, Mikedogz for the Sunjags and Timslim for South Island have the Chiefs to score most, Rico has Jaguares to score the least.</p>
