TCs: Results & Standings .. AFL - 7:52 AM Mar 15 10

Last Response: Aug 31 10

Post by ozzz2002 (4925) 7:52 AM Mar 15 10

The second of the Australian football codes kicks off in ten days. Australian Rules is my favourite sport, so that means I will probably come last (again).

Rules are the same as last year, with the exception of bonus points. 

- One point a correct pick, nothing for a loss.
- Default if you forget to pick, wooden spoon score.
- Tiebreaker will be HoF v Spoons. Largest margin wins, or if the margin is equal, total HoF count wins.
- Deadline will be the start of the first game each weekend- usually a Friday night, with the occasional Thursday.
- Late starters will start on the Wooden Spoon score.

Who wants to play?

Hmmm...should I give you a chance? Nope....I'm In !!

Include me please

I'll give it a try.

Someone has to tell me how HoF (Hall of Fame?) and Wooden Spoons factor in. As well as, are we picking teams or just scores, and is there a spread for the games?

Post by Ozfei (12674) 9:08 PM Mar 17 10

Count me in.

BxB, the Hall of Fame goes to the person/s who get the most correct tips each week. The dreaded Wooden Spoon goes to whoever gets the least picks for that week.

It's a straightforward picking of the winning team for each game.

If I got that wrong I hope someone will come along and correct me.

Those numbers are used as a tie-breaker for dead-heats at the end of the season (a countback system) e.g. three players end up equal first

  • player A   7-3   (a +4 countback)
  • player B   8-4   (also a +4 countback)
  • player C   9-4   (a +5 countback)
    player C wins gold, player B silver and player A the bronze .. player B and player C were both +4 but B had more weekly wins. If the HoF vs. WS countback numbers are identical it's a tie.

    We pick teams, not scores .. spreads are ignored/not used. Most of us use spread numbers to help us pick the winner of a game; we need all the help we can get!

    I enjoy this sport - they don't put it on the TV much over here though.

    Count me in.

  • Firstly, a big welcome to our newest AFL tipsters- BxBarracuda, sky_beau, tezza1551and jonnowales. I hope you enjoy matching wits (or dartboards) with the old-timers. 

  • As a group, we exceeded 72% correct- an amazing number for the first round of a competition. Even the wooden spooners were over 62%. Out of 11 players, only three did not score a HoF or a spoon, but there is still a whole season in front of us.

  • As far as the footy goes, it already looks like Richmond and Melbourne will struggle. St Kilda held on in a nailbiter against the Swans, Collingwood surprised the Bulldogs, reigning premiers Geelong have carried on from last year, and Hawthorn could be on the rise again.

    First week always goes with the heart for the Dees.
    From now on it's from the head only picks.

  • Sypher makes it 2/2 in HoFs, and tezza1551 does the same with spoons. Spoons also went to Howie72 and paper_aero. 

  • Other HoF awards went to BxBarracuda, ozfei and jonnowales. All up we hit 76% of all games!

  • Melbourne gave Collingwood a huge fright, only going down by the skinniest margin, Port snuck home against West Coast, and Geelong came from behind to sneak past Hawthorn. The Bulldogs and Saints both had comfortable wins, as did Sydney and Fremantle.

  • ozfei, jonnowales and tezza1551 all scored well and flew up the ladder, with ozfei taking the outright lead. That is two HoFs in a row for her. 

  • BxBarracuda and Howie72 both tipped poorly and fell a few rungs.

  • ozfei is determined to win this competition, and the way she is going, it will all be over by Round 10! A hat-trick of HoFs, including a perfect score, is a feat that is VERY hard to do. (George, do you know offhand whether this has happened before?) 

  • The rest of us were left in her wake, with srini701 getting his second spoon. 

  • Some interesting results from this round include Melbourne thumping Richmond, for probably their best winning margin for several years. Geelong showed that they cannot be written off with a cricket score against Port. Sworn enemies Collingwood and Carlton both had comfortable wins, as did the Sydney Swans. In one of the tougher games to predict, Brisbane got home against the inconsistent Doggies.

    Has changed my name to George 

    -------

    It wasn't early on but Buck5ley last year made 3 successive HoFs and a perfect score.

    ElfTwinkle did it in 2008.

    ASA in 2007.

    In 2001 & 2003, gtho4 made 4 HoFs in a row but did not score a perfect round.

    -------

    If Ozfei gets a HoF from the next round, it is a record  She is only the fourth person to get 3 successive HoFs and a perfect score since 2001.

    Post by ozzz2002 (4925) 2:42 AM Apr 19 10

    Wow! Thanks for that, Jonno. 

    I will be cheering for Ozfei next week, but after that she is on her own.

    The all-time record for any tipping comp is 5 consecutive weekly wins.

    Oh yes, should have clarified that the stats given by me above, are for the AFL tipping competition only. The stat George has given really is quite something...good luck trying to catch it Ozfei! Two to go.

    Five back-to-back weekly wins has been achieved 9 times by 8 different players over 10 years. 
    The elusive #6 was impossible .. all of them have crumbled under the pressure!

    I don't need pressure to make me crumble 

    I was very lucky with a couple of my picks this week. Almost had to resort to a coin toss for a few of them.

    I had every confidence that the Dees would come through for me against the Tigers.
    The big test will come when we play the Lions next weekend!
    Will have trouble picking that one

  • If your name is jonnowales you may feel a bit left out, as everybody else scored a HoF or a spoon.

  • ozfei bags her fourth straight and retains the lead. Two to go before we break out the champers. 

  • There were upsets galore with three winners not being tipped by any of us. This stat was not even balanced out by two perfect scores. In most rounds a 4/8 would usually get you a spoon; this week seven players graduated into the Hall of Fame with that score. Unbelievable! 

  • Port Adelaide beat St Kilda in a low-scoring armwrestle, the Kangaroos got home against the Hawks by two kicks, and Carlton had a great second half and belted the Premiers. Melbourne are showing a bit of form this year and they creamed the inconsistent Brisbane.

    *holding my head in shame* for NOT sticking with the Dees. 

    After playing a consistent four quarters, three weeks in a row,
    my heart and my head can now be as one

    As in weeks 1 and 2? They scored 5/8!

    Post by jonnowales (13002) 10:25 AM Apr 27 10

    Ozfei, that is already the best performance in the AFL competition since the inaugural competition in 2001! Four successive HoFs + 1 perfect round.

    Now for the tough one !

    Post by Ozfei (12674) 10:21 AM Apr 29 10

    Thanks Jonno.
    Every week is a tough one!
    Better get this weeks picks done now and then cross my fingers.

  • ozfei failed in her attempt to get five HoFs in a row, but is still in the lead. Ozzz2002 is now in outright second after he picked 7/8. Sypher got the same score and moved into equal third. The other HoF winner was srini701. 

  • At the other end of the spectrum, BxBarracuda grabbed another spoon. 

  • In the blockbuster match, a crowd of more than 80,000 saw Collingwood defeat Carlton, Sydney had a win against Brisbane and climbed to the top of the ladder, Geelong made mincemeat of Richmond, and St Kilda did a Houdini, winning on the last kick of the day.

  • Welcome back to the ozfei Show. Five HoFs out of only seven games is quite awesome! This week, she had to share the spoils with srini701. 

  • Sypher was on a bit of a roll over the last couple of weeks, but he came to a shuddering halt, bagging his first spoon.

  • Ozzz2002 picked 7/8 to jump into a share of the lead. He and ozfei have opened up a 5-point margin over the third placed tipster.

  • Sypher picked up another spoon and Howie72 also got one, taking his total to three.

  • St Kilda are feeling the loss of their injured full-forward, Nick Reiwoldt, losing three of their last four, and he may not be back for a few more weeks yet. Geelong are now flag favourites after walloping Brisbane at home, and Collingwood are now leading the comp. They beat Fremantle over in the west.

  • An unusual statistic- only two home teams won in this round.

    Well done Ozzz2002 on your 7 correct.

  • Ozfei scored her first spoon of the season and dropped off the lead by a point. Gtho4 also opened his account in the spoon department, leaving ozzz2002 on top of the ladder, and the only spoonless tipster.

  • BxBarracuda grabbed a HoF and is determined to catch up with the rest of the pack, andSypher got his fifth HoF gong. Howie72 also scored a 5/8..

  • There were a couple of crazy results this week. Fremantle broke a 10-year hoodoo to beat Sydney at home, Melbourne squeaked home against Port, and Hawthorn finally learned how to play footy, to smash the Blues.

    I am going to have to do much better or Ozzz2002 will get too far ahead of me.

    Even though it cost me, I am still glad the Dees won.

  • Yet another week of upsets. Jointly, we had three perfect games, and three perfectly horrendous games. Essendon snuck in against the Doggies, Port Adelaide kicked their lowest score ever and got creamed by Richmond, whilst up in Queensland, Brisbane beat ladder leaders Collingwood.


  • The games that went according to script were Geelong over Melbourne, St Kilda crunching Adelaide and Fremantle doing the same to the Roos. Hawthorn beat Sydney in a nailbiter, and Carlton beat the Weagles.

  • ozfei rejoined the lead by picking up her umpteenth HoF. paper_aero and gtho4 also scored well. Howie72 scored spoon number 4.

  • Everyone scored 5/8 or 6/8 this week, and because of this there was very little change in the leaderboard. srini701 and paper_aero improved slightly, and ozzz2002 again has a solitary point lead over ozfei.


  • BxBarracuda scored his third HoF and is slowly making his way past the default traffic.

  • Another round where most of our scores were covered by a small margin. Ozfei is back into a share of the lead as ozzz2002 got his first spoon. BxBarracuda and Howie72 are also members of the Spoon Club this week.

  • gtho4 scored a HoF and displaced paper_aero from third spot. Sypher and srini701 also got a nice 6/8. The draw between Melbourne and Collingwood ensured that there would be no perfect picks this week.

  • Very little movement this week, also. ozzz2002 somehow managed to not pick a game, andozfei again goes up a point. Sypher and gtho4 also got spoons, whilst Howie72 was this week's only HoF'er.

  • St Kilda beat Geelong in the top of the table clash, and Collingwood beat Sydney. I was at that game, and almost froze solid. The fact that I was in the stands about 300 metres above the action may have caused that. Richmond have now won two on the trot and ruined everyone's tipping percentage. All the other games went as predicted by the pundits.

  • srini701 only missed out on one game to score a solo HoF. Everyone else also missed the Tigers squeaking past the Swans.

  • ozzz2002 has scored a hat trick of spoons, and the pack behing him is closing the gap.BxBarracuda and Sypher also scored spoons in a tightly packed field. An interesting fact is that all home teams got up this weekend.

  • gtho4 picked 8/8 this week, in a high scoring round. He is now third, all on his tod, and closing on the leaders. Our resident Demon, ozfei, is still leading.

  • srini701 dropped a couple of spots by picking up a spoon; a dubious honour that he shared with Howie72.
  • Post by Ozfei (12674) 11:45 AM Jul 12 10

    Well done on the 8/8 gtho4 
    It's getting harder and harder to know who is going to win. 
    So many close games this week

  • A 'steady as she goes' week with very little change anywhere in our standings. Howie72scored a nice 6/8 and BxBarracuda got spooned with 2/8.

  • Both top teams got beaten- Geelong got rolled by Adelaide over in the City of Churches, and St Kilda got thumped by their arch-rivals, the Collywobbles. My mate, who has one black eye and one white, took great delight in reminding me of the score...

    Just remind him it's not September yet and the Colliwobbles haven't set in

  • The draw between St Kilda and Hawthorn ensured that there would be no perfect scores this weekend. Port Adelaide won the local derby, Essendon won a nail-biter against the Roos, and in a major upset, Melbourne slaughtered the Swans.

  • ozfei is still leading, but is feeling the pressure. She was one of three spooners- the others were srini701 and Howie72. Sypher scored 5/8 to close the gap on the top group.

  • There were three upsets this week, with the biggest one being the Bombers over the Saints. Port Adelaide beat Hawthorn, and srini701 was the only one to tip Richmond against Adelaide. We also had four perfect group scores.

  • Everyone scored either 4/8 or 5/8 so there was only one change- srini701 moved from fifth to a share of fourth.

  • This week was almost a carbon copy of last week. 37 wins against 36, scores of either 4/8 or 5/8, only one slight change in position on the ladder, and a couple of upsets. 

  • Collingwood beat Geelong in the top-of-the-ladder clash, and are now probably favourites for the flag. Sydney stopped Hawthorn's recent good form with a 44-point belting, and the Kangaroos are still in contention with a big win over Fremantle.

  • ozfei picked up a spoon and has dropped off the top of the heap. She is now in a tie for second with gtho4. ozzz2002 is now just one game clear of the field. 

  • srini701 also scored a spoon and this allowed paper_aero to skip away by couple of points into fourth, and BxBarracuda snared a HoF award, as well.

  • This was the penultimate round, and ozfei zigged where she should have zagged and dropped to third. gtho4 is now in clear second place and only one point behind a very nervous ozzz2002. srini701snared another spoon, but will need some extraordinary results to climb any higher than fourth.

  • This comp mirrors the AFL ladder with the top three teams already decided. Collingwood fell over the line against Adelaide, and St Kilda had a few anxious moments against a very tenacious Tigers outfit. Geelong accounted for Carlton, who will probably finish 8th, and just in the finals. Hawthorn had a cakewalk against another finals team, Fremantle. Sydney beat Bulldogs and despite beating West Coast, the Kangaroos will probably finish one game outside the final eight.

    Like some players, I have been off my game the last few weeks. blush 

    Hope I can redeem myself in the last round. wink

    I reckon there are at least four games which could go either way. It is going to be a very tight finish!

  • That was the end of the normal season of the AFL for 2010. Finals start next week, and I hope that St Kilda play better than they did this week! Geelong was the only one of the top three to win, with Collingwood also going down. Sydney, Fremantle, Hawthorn and Carlton occupy the bottom half of the final eight, and two of these teams will drop out next weekend. Collingwood plays the Doggies and St Kilda play Geelong. The two winners get the following week off. After that, it all gets very complicated.

  • ozfei had a great start to the season with 5 HoFs in the first seven weeks, however, she fell away towards the end and finished third. This is her first podium, but will probably not be the last.

  • gtho4 also got 7 HoF and just snuck into second. This is definitely NOT his first podium finish- he does it with monotonous regularity.

  • This year's winner is ozzz2002, and I cannot think of a more deserving recipient. smile A couple of lucky results in the last round helped.

  • Sypher topped the HoF tally with ten, and finished ahead ofpaper_aero in a countback.

  • srini701 also did well in the HoF department, but spoiled it all by also getting eight spoons. Howie72 got as high as fourth, and our sole American representative, BxBarracuda plugged on bravely. Hopefully he was not disillusioned by our silly sport and will be back in future comps! 

  • See you all next year, and Go St Kilda!

    Yup, a most deserving winner for this edition smile Well done, Ozz smile and thanks for doing a terrific job! Congrats to gtho4 and to ozfei also for a fine run...

    Congrats Ozz, great job running the competition. I'll be back for another season, my goal will be to break the century mark.

    Post by Sypher (32) 3:06 PM Aug 29 10

    It must be a first - All the podium winners are from the same country !!

    Post by Ozfei (12674) 12:23 AM Aug 31 10

    Congratulations ozzz and gtho4.

    I tried to pick some upsets in the last round to make a late dash but unfortunately picked the wrong ones. crazy 

    Should be a great final series if all teams are firing. 
    See you here again next year. smile
