Thanks serfty.
Looks like last year's competitors in AFL and NRL are auto added.

A reminder. First Super Rugby games are in the early hours of Sunday morning

 

[Deleted member]

I’m in. Super rugby tipping.

 

[JohnK]

It would appear I've been auto added.

 

[serfty]

The Super Rugby was simply added to the AFF competitions.

If you were in AFF tipping last year for AFL/NRL then this year you can enter Super Rugby tips as well.

 

[ksthommo]

Thanks Serfty, having a go.

With one round + finals to go, there is a clear leader:

 

[moa999]

Well I did give JohnK a chance in the final round...

FYI @serfty it looks like the ladder is stalled on the QF round (seemingly FootyTips stuffed up and this was the default) -- You might want to update it
(Edit Settings - Round Range) according to support.

 

[serfty]

(seemingly FootyTips stuffed up and this was the default)

That would be the case.

Thanks for the heads up.

 

[serfty]

... and the final results for 2018:



Well Done @moa999

 

[ksthommo]

Congrats moa99

 

[moa999]

What? It has started?!

Yes ...i see ...

I'll see what can be done ... but it looks like round 2 ...

 

[Captain Halliday]

Damn... I totally forgot

 

[JohnK]

@moa999, @serfty I believe I tipped first round but if you are going to give everyone that didn't tip the away teams then I'll have the away teams too.

 

[serfty]

Round 1 will not be taken into account.

Tipping from round 2 onwards.

This means the FootyTips score will be adjusted and the AFF results published here.

 

[moa999]

Looking back at last year.. everyone got the same score in Rd 1 anyway.
