Didn't tip Knights Manly mate.

 

[Burgey]

I'd forgotten how great a game the 97 ARL GF was. It's on Fox. Last 5 minutes as frenetic as any you will ever see, and Adam McDougall's deliberate boot to Geoff Toovey's head was a thing of sublime beauty.

Sea Eagles for Monday night.

Haha I see Russell Crowe was trying to make a play for Greg Inglis. Now there would have to be some serious rorting going on at Soufs for that to happen. Taylor and Burgess don't come cheap, and people like Sandow would earn a pretty penny as well.

Round 20

Mister Wright 4
ripper 4
Craig 4
Brumby 4
alternative 4
vic_orthdox 3
Burgey 2
Ausage 2
morgieb 2
James90 2
Clapo 2

We have 5 winners this week with no one scoring above 4. Poor scores from myself and Mogieb mean that non tipster James gets 2, whlie Clapo bows out with his third straight week without tipping.

Overall

Mister Wright 80.8
Ausage 80.4
ripper 80.3
Burgey 79.4
alternative 79.4
Craig 79.4
morgieb 74.3
James90 72.3
Brumby 72.2
vic_orthdox 71.2

Extraordinary situation at the top with 1 point seperating the top 6 positions. We do however have a new leader with Kyle's superior bonus points putting him ahead of myself and ripper.

Even if I don't win the whole thing I should get some sort of award for being the best tipper in at least 8 of the rounds.

It's pretty tight, it could well be the difference tbh.

Anyway we're not looking the goods atm. Pretty disappointed we only just flopped over the line against the worst team in the comp.

Flash's try though

 

[Craig]

That was pretty dire by Parramatta.

 

[Craig]

Steve Michaels having a decent game for Gold Coast for mine.

The Knightsh ave started out like a bat out of hell.

Burgey 2
James90 2

Vic gets the biscuits this week as the only person to get the Titans victory. Poor week for Burgey though and James fails to tip again. We'll be down to 9 if he doesn't tip next week.

Overall

Mister Wright 84.8
Ausage 84.4
ripper 83.3

Craig 83.4
Burgey 81.4
morgieb 78.3
vic_orthdox 76.3
Brumby 76.2
James90 74.3

Kyle still heads the table on bonus points, and Burgey's poor weekend makes the top of the table only slightly less congested. Vic's victory lifts him from the bottom of the table. His place is taken by James though that stint is likely to only last a week.

Also, to keep things interesting during the finals I was thinking of awarding additional points for correctly tipping finals games. I was thinking along the lines of 2 points for all finals games, and 4 points for the Grand Final. How does that sound to everyone?
