I will post the games coming up in a AFL tipping comp thread. Everyone who's entered can PM me their tips and I'll post everyones scores at the conclusion of that round. Those who don't PM their tips before the first game of the round starts gets all of the away games. I can PM someone my tips to prove that I'm not cheating.
In each round there will also be one game where everyone will have to guess the winning margin, who ever is closest gets a bonus 2 points.
Does all of that make sense?
So far the tipsters are...
1. Arctic Firefox
2. Min
3. Rilla
4. Cat Whisperer
5. Squirt
6. Siryn

I'd be happy to help you moderate this if you like. It might be handy to have a locked thread for the tips and the scores. Anyway, I'll PM you about what we could do with a thread  |

I'll tip! I love tipping competitions. That doesn't mean I'm any good though, I was proudly last in the last comps I had with neighbours.

I'm in for tipping 
A tipping comp is basically where every week before they play, you pick/tip which team is going to win their game. If the team you tipped wins, you get a point
and GO SYDNEY AND GEELONG! WOOOOOO

we'll start next week so that we have time to get more people, start with round three Although, I noticed you tipped Adelaide AF, Good Work ;D Adelaide at home ... must be a sure thing. Having said that, they'd better win this week, because I've tipped all five winners so far, and it would be nice to get all eight! |
