Welcome to the:

"Rain or shine, Manly are awesome" round.

Dedicated to:

The legends who attended this weeks game in the pouring rain.


Hello everyone!

No byes in the footy this weekend meaning there was the full complement of points on offer (9.)

Sigh....I wonder what it's like to actually get 9 points in one week??


Probably.....like this!!!!!

Another win for Manly, the media up in arms about one of our trys, parra lost, and we're sitting nicely in 6th spot. What a lovely weekend!

So how many this week?

Hopefully
many of you took my complaint regarding too many tipsters getting perfect rounds to heart and threw away a couple of games for me!

*checks results*

You did! Why thank you! In fact there were only two people who took it upon themselves to get all their tips correct. Awesome.

This weeks "Rebels who insisted on getting a perfect round" are:

Ned , and

Fibro Eagle


Well done guys!
With 3 of the silvertails 'favourite picks' going down I didn't think anyone was going to get a perfect score, but you guys did...so take the rest of the week off!

To split the 'perfects,' we see if someone was closer in their margin prediction and.....

There was (finally!!) So an extra well done to @Ned ending up with a margin of 12, compared to @Fibro Eagle 's margin of 14. Close!

The "What is the prize for winning this anyway?" Leader Board:
Eagle1188 89: A four point lead now! Gittin er done!
Moondog 85: More like starcat!! 'Moondog' you're our only hope!
Pommie Eagle 84: Nicely in third, so polite. wont take over...yet!
Manly To Win! 83: Hanging in 4th, waiting for a drugs bust to bump him up to third!
Wombat64 82: Great job keeping the top 5 the same! Is the whole list like this??
globaleagle 81: No... As superhero ge rushes in to stuff up the status quo!
Clint 81: Realises looking up at ge is never pretty. Will do better next week!
Andrew.. 81: Hangin', Chillin', little bit of illin.
Fibro Eagle 81: Oh...so this is what a perfect week does for ya??
The Insomniac 81: Hasn't fallen asleep on the job and rounds out the top 10.

Well done to the nine intelligent tipsters there and the one total fluke merchant!

As always, the full leader board here:
I am the very model of a modern Major General!


This week's random member mention!

Well the random number this week is...38!!!

And the lucky member it corresponds to is:


@Dan !!!
Dan 74 points!

*ge triple checks his results*

@Dan it is! Our illustrious site owner, all round nice guy, and computer hacker extraordinaire has the dubious pleasure of this weeks random member mention.

Many of you have known Dan (in real life even) for a lot more than I have but I know he's far too humble (and busy) to accept another paragraph of platitudes of how thankful we all are to him for starting and running this site. Anyway...thanks Dan!

(He just told me he's never too busy for thanks...!) - I'm kidding!

More importantly our 'on line' world costs him 'real world' money and at times 'very real world' aggravation. So kudos to everyone that helps out this site financially when they can.

Oh, err, yeah...He tips ok, I guess.

So here's to Dan, living in Amsterdam, doing what he can, I hope I don't get a ban.

Well Manly faithful, we have a bye this coming weekend (boring) and there's only 4 games so we should all get 4 from 4 (like last time..lol)

I've just been handed a grilled cheese sandwich so this weeks wrap up is over!

Good health to you all.

Your friend,
ge

Dan made random member, yeah right..!!
My tipping is slipping into the abyss.
Oddly I am coming 2nd in my work tipping comp, only has about 40 tippers though.
(Oh and thanks for the update GE 🙂
 
My appearance on the first page of the leaderboard was all too brief. My tipping performance has the Max Merritt soundtrack.....slip, slip, slippin' away from me
 
Halfway through the season and I am already at the "hail mary" phase of picking all outsiders...
 
And I just heard Nate has moved on...too late for this weeks dedication!
