I would be in, but am away for a couple of weeks to Aus after the first week, but maybe I could put in picks before I go.
Hey Dan - just FYI, we have the interweb here in Oz now too.
Chur
Well there's a suprise mate, when did that happen?
But when I holiday ,I usually not on the net!If you DM me with your picks for the weeks you're away picking according to the tipping sheet we'll be good
KiwiPie, just to let you know, really appreciate the offer of sending you picks etc, I have done this weeks, and have managed to work out how to log in on phone ,so will do next weeks fron OZ! Much appreciate the offer mate!
Nice one. And on a general point if you're the sort who is likely to forget, make your tips at the start of the week when the results come out - submit again close to the first game if you want to change and I'll use your latest tips.

A reminder to tip, the first game kicks off at 8pm

The site was down when I posted the results this morning so here is the summary from the weekend. https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping
Best of the weekend was Bartman with 49, one of only 2 (along with OleOleOle) to pick all 6 results. If you reached 40 you had a pretty good score. Tim bagged 42 to lead by 1 from Bartman and GT12. Low score for the weekend was TR with just 22.
Barbarians take over at the top by a point from the SunJags, the only teams with 2 wins from 2. South Island are propping up the table.
Your score next weekend matters - the top 32 scores go into the 1st Round of the TSF Cup.

Get you tips in everyone, still plenty of people left to submit

Everything is updated at https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/ and next week's tipping form is live.
The first weekend where anyone reached 50 points and it was Higgins, Triple T & Unite who had 50 each. Higgins now leads by 5 from Plastered Peni with Tim dropping back to 3rd, Triple T & Unite move into the top 10. Kruse & Rico#1 were the only tippers to get 5/6 with the Drua and Rebels wins catching most people out.
Barbarians won again to be the only team with 3/3, the SunJags in 2nd and still unbeaten. BoP Chiefs and Blues A make up the top 4 but only 2 points between 3rd and 7th.
The first round draw of the Cup is shown - if you were in the top 32 of scorers this past weekend, you're in the draw.
Finally, OleOleOle leads the table for picking results - 15/18 picked correctly so far.

Best week for scoring so far with 14 tippers picking all 6 results correctly and Machpants getting 5/6 with correct margin. Category points were important and these enabled Higgins and Winger to top score with 64 apiece with Antipodean on 62. Blues v Crusaders was the key game to pick correctly. Higgins now leads by 18 from Triple T with Hydro11 and GT12 level on 3rd, 2 points back. Moving into the top 10 were Bartman, Antipodean and Dolamite to replace Donsteppa, OleOleOle & Unite who crashed out. After a terrible start, Winger is up to 12th.
The draw for the 2nd Round of the Cup has been made, change the drop-down to First Round to see why you didn't make it. I won the 3 way replay to get into the 1st round which gave me the pleasure of being thrashed by Higgins.
The match of the season took place between Hurricanes Gold and Barbarians with the Canes inflicting the Baa-Baa's first defeat 54-53 with those totals the top 2 of the weekend. 4 scores over 50 for the Canes. With the BOP Chiefs defeating the SunJags (Kruse forgot to turn up), there are now just 4 points covering the top 6.

Out of interest KP, how many of the 48 tipsters selected the Saders?

18 of the 43 who tipped went for the Crusaders - pretty unusual for the Crusaders to not be Fern backed.

WTF? I was certain I tipped. I've got a bloody reminder on my work calendar. Which reminds me to do TSF, then SuperBru.
I always do TSF before SuperBru... and I just checked, I did do SuperBru, pretty fucking well, I might add.
This is bullshit. I finally understand the tern "BOP Mafia". Dodgy... as... fuck.
Where's that Conspiracy Thread? -

Only Rebels v Reds was a difficult game to pick so there were plenty of good scores around - and the category picks were make and break given that Unite and OleOleOle scored 20/20 for those and quite a few got nothing at all.
Unite picked 6/6 to grab the highest score of the season with 67. Crucial scored 62 and OleOleOle and Victor were on 61. Higgins bagged 59 to establish a huge 30 point lead with positions 2-10 separated by only 5 points. GT12 is 2nd, Plastered Peni 3rd and Bartman, Hydro11 & Triple T share 4th place.
In the teams comp, wins for Barbarians, BOP Chiefs, Canes Gold have them in the top 3 positions and Blues B beat Blues A to get their first win of the season. In the Cup, we are down to the final 8.

You doing great work there KP, it's a pity I not doing as well for my team in picking lol! And Unite dpoing 6 from 6 is pretty good picking!
When I saw your score, I did wonder whether you had tipped last week's games ....
-
@KiwiPie I have tried picking on a monday this year, so I don't forget lol, but then sometimes the teams aren't as I expect and maybe I don't alwatys check I've ticked the right teams lol, or more likely I just not very good at it??? I keep trying to pick the an upset result game to be smart too! lol.
Actually I wondered if my last weeks game went in as the wrong team to, as I had a feeling it showed me as being in a Blues team at some stage. -

Luckily I checked my tips. And changed the first game to away 17+ (from home 17+)

@Winger You sure are as I had banked that as a sure gap in the Cup Quarterfinal. Now after you have fixed the obvious mistake it looks like you have got me by the short and curlies with just one pick different between us in the games to come! Whatever the result that is unlikely to deprive you of the win. In fact I don't think it is even possible.

Tipping results are up along with the tipping form for next week. Only 4 games per weekend for 3 weeks as each team gets a week off. Points wise, these rounds will be scored at 15 points per result pick and 5 per category.
Best of the weekend was Crucial with 62 points, a second successive 62 and now just outside the the top 10. 59 for Chimoaus, Mikedogz and Dogmeat on a weekend when around half of the tippers picked 6/6 results. Higgins retains his large lead, now 28 points with previous champion Hydro11 in 2nd and Bartman, Winger & Triple T 5 points behind in 3rd.
Wins for BOP Chiefs, SunJags and both Hurricanes teams means that the Chiefs take over at the top with the SunJags just outside the play-off places.
The Cup semi-finals are Winger v Laurence & Langakali v Dolamite - we'll have time for a 2nd cup comp as there are still 10 rounds to go.

Is the scoring out of 60 this week.

As above "Only 4 games per weekend for 3 weeks as each team gets a week off. Points wise, these rounds will be scored at 15 points per result pick and 5 per category." In other words, scoring is still out of 80, but each games is 50% more important.

So 15 points for the correct pick (not 10) but everything else stays the same.

It might be a holiday but it is still time to get your tips in.
-
Fuck. Stupid goddamn christian holiday.
First - great, I get to go for a ride, nice. Mokau for whitebait, and Whangamomona for some service surcharge price-gouging... 20% surcharge, when the only staff on duty are the owners.
Then - I suddenly remember that I can't buy 'offie' booze, and I have only 2 cans of beer in the fridge. Fuck.
Then - I finally come across this thread... and realise that my reminders for tipping are on my work laptop... and I haven't done shit about tipping until halfway through the first game.
Fuck you Jesus. -

Again - Fuck you Jesus.
But... yeah.
Also - fucked up today's planned riding by spending the entire morning in the fucking shitstorm of every other fluffybunny who also went to the supermarket... just so I could stock up on booze in preparation for tomorrow's stupid goddamn religious-persecution liquor-laws. -

@BartMan said in TSF Super Tipping 2023:
Tipping certainly makes watching the rugby more exciting as your margins come and go when points are scored. I forgot how much fun. I was waiting for someone to knock on in the final moments of Canes v Clan. Any score either way was bad!
I was hoping the Landers got a lucky break and scored under the posts.

Results are in https://thesilverfern.com/tipping/ and next weekend's form is live. Curious half points dotted around the leaderboard now with the 1.5 multiplier in action.
Categories were tricky to get but both Duluth and Rico#1 picked 3/4 - but the massive score they should have had was ruined by picking wins for the Reds and Highlanders respectively. Nearly the whole top 20 picked all the match results but Tim was top scorer with 57.5 with 3 margins out of 4. Tim shoots up to 2nd but still 22.5 behind Higgins who lost a bit of ground to most of the chasers.
The Cup final is between Winger and Dolamite. We will make this over a single weekend and you also need to be in the top 32 this weekend to make the next Cup draw.
The BOP Chiefs won again with a bonus point to go 4 clear of Barbarians who are 1 ahead of Canes Black. Game of the round was a 50-50 draw between Blues B and Canes Gold.
Missing tippers in recent weeks are @justin77, Fiamacho, @Nevorian @Canes4life - for the SunJags, both Kruse & Joan and Mary took the default score for late tips. (merciful for Kruse as the tips he did put in were so bad)
-
@Kruse Stop your whining man
I missed the first week and a bit because it was what passed for high summer and my thoughts are all wood on willow not fucking footy.
At least it gave me a bona fide excuse for my low ranking rather than just being shit.
In my defence, I think the last time I actually watched a Super Rugby game Henry was the AB coach.
