Let's dispense with the formalities, we are into the home stretch now as the leaders agonise over tipping decisons and scour the internet for "mail" on injuries, look at lineups, check the head to head stats, who's hot, who's not, home ground advantage, something to play for......Ok I'm picking ??
Most games went with the form line but the Panthers effort and possibly the Sharks tonight would probably be considered upsets (by me anyway as I tipped neither). Closest game of the weekend was the Titans and Warriors which ended up being the coin toss it looked on paper. Dragons and Tigers was a battle of the also rans which caused concern, but as usual every tipper can rely on a Parramatta capitulation.....guaranteed 2 points very week.
We haven't had a full round picked for quite a few weeks now and that didn't change this weekend either. We had 4 tippers who got 7 from 8 which is a fair effort. The following 3 got all the games right except the bonus game, all of them opting for the Dragons unfortunately
@captainskin , @mickqld and @WAMF
So that leaves one tipper who got 7 from 8 including the bonus game to rack up 16 points this week, only missing the Panthers knocking off the Broncs
The Sea Eagles Fan Hubs Tipping Comp weekly winners for Round 24 is ...........
@globaleagle >>>>> Back to back baby !!!....... now he can bring everyones favourite Canadian Celine Dion with him to Brookie. This effort has also helped GE into the top ten with a bullet. May have left his run too late though with only 2 weeks left.
The pressure of finals tipping has taken its toll on some as the temptation of going for an upset or two has cost them ladder position. Overall leaderboard can be seen here
2013 Tipping Comp Ladder
but the updated Top Ten is as follows and their current scores
@Stiffi 260 - 272
@mickqld 256 - 270
@Clint 256 - 268
@"the mauler" 260 - 268
@"Canteen Worker" 256 - 264
@Moondog 254 - 264
@SeaEagleRock8 256 - 264
@globaleagle 246 - 262
@"Kiwi Eagle" 250 - 262
Mick on the move after another good week but Stiffi just keeps plugging away. Can the tipping viagra last another 2 weeks for the penisular piston ?? Defending champ Clint won't go away and remains in striking distance along with Mauler. This is going to go down to the wire. The GE vs SER8 head to head for a carton bet is looking like being a photo finish as well.
In other news we finally had a winner in the Last Fan Standing comp after the very close Titans and Warriors contest was made the game of the round. Well done to @Clint for taking out the very first Earnie The Eagle LFS tipping competition. Well done Clint, solid effort to survive from a starting field of over 80 tippers. Want to thank everyone who participated in the LFS comp this year, thanks for your patience after a few teething problems early and most of all thanks for playing in the right spirit. It'll be back next year bigger and better.
As always we thank our sponsor and encourage you to check out a Fan Hub near you. As the finals approach, what better way to enjoy a game then in the company of like minded souls if you can't make it to a game.
