TSF Tipping 2022

With one week to go, it is still all to play for with TSF Tipping. https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/

Huge scores for most people as all the results went as expected (bat the Highlanders). Bay Imports had the season high 77/80, 6/6 and only missing one margin. Tim and Higgins next best with 70 and that moves Tim to just 8 behind Hydro11 with Higgins in 3rd another 13 back. Antipodean was the only other player to pick 6/6.

In the final, Barbarians lead Canes Gold 65-54 after the 1st leg with Crucial not even bothering to turn up. BOP Chiefs lead Canes Black 60-44 in the 3rd place play-off.

Most matches with the correct result picked is Tim with 59/71 and most correct with margin is Hydro11 with 37/71.

Whats the all seasons record high? 77/80 must come close

@Winger Could be the highest, will run a complicated query on the Tipping giant database tonight and let you know.

Pretty poor that @bayimports got a margin wrong to be honest

To be fair, if the highlanders had not scored in the 80th minute, I do believe I would have had the clean sweep ...oh so close

@bayimports Not quite as that last minute try Highlanders changed the margin from 19 to 12 bringing you smack bang into the Away 9 - 16 zone giving you ten points instead of seven. Your only miss from maximum points came in the Reds v MP fixture where you had Home 17+ so it was the last minute Henry Stowers converted try bringing the margin to eleven from the eighteen that it looked like it would be. You lost one and gained one with those last second tries!

Final tipping call for Super Rugby and you get a couple of months off before NPC

Here is the live top 10 for TSF Tipping with 1 game to go.

Hydro11 663
Tim 657
Higgins 652
John Nolan 649
Plastered Peni 640
Winger 638
Canes4life 634
KP 630
Triple T 610
Victor 609

For the top 4:

Hydro11 Highlanders 17+
Tim Highlanders 9-16
Higgins Highlanders 9-16
John Nolan Highlanders 1-8

For categories, Hydro11 can still score 5 for the Chiefs as top scorer, Tim will score 5 if the Crusaders get the biggest win, Higgins cannot score any points and John Nolan also has Crusaders as biggest victor.

So to win Tim needs a Highlanders win by 1-16 and for one of the teams to score more than 35 points.

It's all over for another Super Rugby season and the results have been posted

In a low scoring week, Hydro11 scored just 19 but it was enough to win by 6 from Tim with John Nolan coming through to take 3rd and a podium spot in his debut season. Hydro11 won in 2016, 2018 & 2019 which suggests it is based on more than just random selections. Rounding out the top 5 were Higgins and Plastered Peni.

Best for the weekend with 50 was Kruse, getting 20 from all 4 category picks with 49 for Smudge who scored 15/20 on categories. Bay Imports was the only one with 4/6 games tipped for 40 points.

Barbarians won the teams competition 92-78 over Canes Gold for their first title since 2016. BOP Chiefs took 3rd beating Canes Black 88-66.

Thanks to all who played start to finish - see you all for the NPC.

Thanks KP excellent job done again, just a shame a few dropped out along the way. Starting the last round I thought I had a podium spot cemented in but reserved my worst week right when we were into injury time, still looking at the Statistics page it is clear who is the most dynamic player when it comes to consistently wracking up half centuries!!!!!

Congrats and well done to Hydro11, Tim and John Nolan, especially Hydro whose record is surely second to none..

@KiwiPie Thanks KP!

And congrats to Hydro.

@KiwiPie Cheers as always KP!

@KiwiPie congrats Hydro. Great comp. Thanks

Turns out that @bayimports equalled the record for highest score in a week - @hydro11 also scored 77 in 2017.

Maybe if you had performed for the whole comp like you did in the last 2 weeks, the BOP Chiefs would have been champions. It's a sad fact that this tipping comp started in 2006 and still the BOP Chiefs have never been champions.

Shall we rename ourselves the Warriors...

Let's do that. By the way, I'm contracted to the BOP Chiefs for 2023 but can you pay out my contract so I can play for the South Island?

Well played Hydro.
