A-League Tipping Comp

I have to hope the Fury match is a draw to get a point now - our other picks are the same

5/5 so far, wish I had back them as a multi  will be happy for 6/7 if it means the Nix get points midweek.

[Edit: wow 4 of us are 5/5, and alot of people are 4/5 with CCM letting them down.]

Do the rules permit making changes to upcoming games whilst game week is in flight. ?

In order to salvage a point, can I change..

 BRI vs Roar to a Draw (from Bri) 

(Jeez I am taking this a bit too seriously, aren't I ? )

C.T. We know about people who change their minds partway through!

if homer_simpson doesnt mind, im happy with it.

Speaking as an impartial observer (and taking it even more seriously), it shouldn't be allowed, as homer will just then go and change his pick to be the same as yours to ensure victory (as a number of players may be able to do if they are leading by one going into the final match).

Harden up, RR.

Ryan's Rovers, you've done a fantastic job running this competition. You can retire now if you want, you've done so much hard work it's only fair you get the chance to finish early should you wish

Hmm nah, after going this far, I think we might aswell see out the last 3 rounds 

Very tight at the top, anyone from CboZ up prob has a good chance of taking it still.

Comment (not sour grapes): Top few placings heavily dependent on "luck of the draw" with just 33-37 goals against. Good "D" guys. Poor old Wolfman has let in 57, with RR and myself close behind conceding 54! Clearly we need to tighten up at the back.

Week 25:

Ha.... im the only 1 with 0 goal difference... 

Worth a shot I figure NZP will retake his lead. I just hope I beat CboZ haha.

I like this format, but sadly the luck of the draw has been exagerated by not everyone playing each other & the moving of the thread increasing the amount of absent tips. But at least showing the 'For' & 'Against' can show who has been unlucky. And for next year im happy to consider feedback from this season, as the main point is for people to have fun.

Suppose I better start thinking of something for the finals.

Cant send reminders to these people:
