Default AFL Tipping Comp

Welcome to the AFL tipping comp. Make sure you read the rules carefully please.

RULES

Everyone to have their tips in for the whole round before the first match.

Pick the team you think will win each game and also pick whether they'll win by 1-24 points or 25+ points. 1 point will be awarded for correctly picking the winning team. 2 points will be awarded if you also get the margin correct. You can pick a draw if you wish. You will receive 12 points for correctly tipping a draw.

Pick the exact winning margin in the selected 'match of the week'
2 bonus points will be awarded to the tipster who gets closest to the actual winning margin in this match. If anyone gets the margin exactly correct, they will get an extra 8 bonus points.

What about a bit of common sense leniency for this round.
Only coz first game is Thursday.
My main concern is knowing the team squads,particularly for Sunday and Monday games!
Maybe make the Saturday afternoon bounce the closing time for other games!

Don't honestly expect that we'll get that close to the exact margin all that often. I wouldn't be surprised if we go the whole season with no one getting the 8 bonus points. It's just an added incentive to keep everyone interested.

Okay, yes. I'll be lenient with the first round because of the break on Good Friday. I would still like everyone to put ALL their tips in before Thursday's game, but if you then want to make a couple of changes you can do so providing you do it before Saturday's games start.

i don't really need the teams up, because most of my AFL tips will be guesswork!

Brisbane 1-24
Carlton 1-24
Melbourne 1-24
Port Adelaide 25+
Swans 1-14
Geelong 25+
West Coast 1-24
Collingwood 25+

Chuck, do you want to have a go on the margin in the Bris/StK game?
