With our regular (and much smarter) poster @lsz sunning himself on some far away beach I've been requested (no I haven't) to give a report on this week's tipping.
Remember lsz, if you have tan lines in your suntan - you didn't fully commit!
As we all know, there's 8 games worth 1 point each with an extra point for the 'pick the score' game. More reasonably known as the 'bonus point game.'
Some weeks the big favourites will all get beaten turning a week of tipping into a weak week of tipping. Hopefully that doesn't happen weekly.
According to the silvertails tipsters a 'big four' of favourites (trademark - suck it tigers) went down.
They being:
Penrith
Manly
Nth Qld
Melbourne
So how did we go? Meh.....unless you are:
@dowdz lead us all with 6 from 8 and 7 points (picked the sharks I see) followed by,
@rmd who had 5 from 8 and 6 points (sharks again)
A host of people on 5 points but as @Growler FNQ had a margin of 1 in the 'pick the score' game he gets a mention here.
Our current leader @Eagle1188 ran the middle line getting 4 points from 4 games proving he can occasionally hang with other mediocre tippers like yours truly (also on 4.)
What does the leader board look like now?
Glad you asked! (I didn't - shut up hat!)
Well...it looks like there's a list of names on one side and some numbers on the other side.
More specifically:
@Eagle1188 maintains his lead on 41 points
@swoop jumps a whole bunch of riff raff (including @rifraff ) to land in 2nd place on 38 points
@Manly To Win! and @Wombat64 round out third place on 37 points.
Well done to you guys.
For the rest of us peanuts, take heart - one or two good weeks of tipping will put you right back into contention.
The leaders list can be found here:

Good luck for next week!
