      I've created the form for the 1st round - make sure you tip ASAP and then I'll sort out the teams.

          I watched Wayne's World playing pressies last Saturday with Victor and he will try and round up the rest of his Bush Boys.
          More importantly this is the annual rallying call for HB guys to don the Black and White Hoops to uphold the honour of the Bay with Hurrycanes, Stockcar86 and me. Can't remember who fronted when the contest was last held in the 2016 season but teams require six tippers with the top five scorers each week counting so if you have a stinker it might not be too bad.
          Hopefully some or all of the following (or any others that we don't know about) will stick their hands up and get on board as we attempt to unseat the all conquering mob from Wairarapa-Bush to get the Championship Title back again for the 4th (or fifth?) time
          Stargazer
          Number10
          Nepia
          Kiwimatrix
          Footy01
          Magpie_ in_Aus

          Kick off is this coming Thursday night so come on take the plunge and get out there for the sake of the Bay off the field!

              If you want to chase up previous players, these were the teams 2 years ago (I didn't run this last season). Top 10 finishers are indicated. The winning team was Wairarapa Bush beating South Island in the final.

                                  @taniwharugby do we need a Northland team? Might give it a miss if not. Enjoy all the rugby but just can’t keep up.

                                      @taniwharugby so do we? Never let the team down except through my picks. But if Northland wins every game by 20 points, then I am your man πŸ‘

                                                          Higgins is in.

                                                          KP, can you paste a starters list sometime so all teams can start chasing up absentee tippers in time for Friday night?

                                                          Stockcar86, I hope you are not one of the missing tippers but I notice you are not a starter in the Silverfern Superbru Mitre10 Cup pool that you won last year. Surely you will be back to defend that crown, or are you retiring at the top?

                                                          Think this is the link to join that one as well if any others want to through their hat into the ring https://www.superbru.com/mitre10cup/pool.php?p=11919035

                                                              I have Antipodean, Joan and Mary and Fiamacho to add to a team - Counties-Waikato, Northland and South Island need a player each. If any of those 3 post a preference on this thread in the next 12 hours, I will do what they ask - otherwise I will assign randomly.

                                                              If you still want to join the tipping link is

                                                              Finally after 1 game, only FarNthHayden and ACT Crusader didn't pick a Harbour win and Paj, TR, mikedogz, Richie, Joan and Mary, Crucial, Dogmeat, DK, Gunner, Hydro11, Donsteppa, Plastered Peni, Corkscrew, Smudge and Stargazer started with a maximum 10 points.

                                                                I didn't even realise the first game had been played and I'm on maximum. Maybe that's how I should continue?

                                                                          Duluth is setting something magical up soon which will revolutionise the tipping world ...

                                                                          Tipping

                                                                          The most useful thing is this url will always have the current tipping forum
                                                                          https://www.thesilverfern.com/current-tipping-form/

                                                                          All the leaderboards etc are live. So as Kiwipie updates the google spreadsheets the website will automatically update.

                                                                          The tables look a bit shitty b/c I don't have much control.. I may try to fix them in future

                                                                          There's still some more sections to be added (History and Stats). The responses spreadsheet is huge so that will probably stay on the google drive

If you are aligned to any of the following think seriously of doing your duty and coming in and showing your true colours
