Since there is only 7 games in the final series, to make things more of a challenge, we will be tipping on the first half winner, and overall winner of the games.

Points - A correct tip gets the points listed beside the teams name, these are the current TAB odds at the time of posting.

Tipping Deadline - I will accept picks for games, so long as they are posted before the game starts.

Double Points - Each round you can pick one result to get double points on your pick. If you dont specify a game,  you dont get a double point pick.

Late Starts - New Players are always welcome to play during the final series, but will start from 0.00 points.

Early Tips - If your unable to get your tips in for a future round, send me a PM or post them in the thread.

Got no points for last round even though I picked the nix to win?? 

Guess I misread it or something and the final result didn't mean the shootout. Oh well.

Sydney/Draw

I didnt even consider the chance for the games to go into added time, and penalties when I decided on what options to give. I gave the options for the full time scores, and did the scoring based on those, since there was a draw option given. Looking back I should have done 'to progress' for it.

No worries Ryan, I can take them on the chin. We all can't take them both ways.

For the Sydney Melbourne game, should it not be to win the game (instead of to progress), because they've already played the first leg?

Phoenix double

If it ends 2-1 to Sydney, they would play added time and I guess penalties if needed? So could end up messy like the first round again, so thought that would be 'safer' to use.

Cool, thanks, picks edited.
