Footy Tipping

Featured Replies

Posted

I had a look through some old threads and I can't see anything on there being a footy tipping league for demonlanders or 'ologists.

Last year I had my name in both, will it be done again this year?

 

I'm not sure what they are doing here at Demonland, they usually run one through OZTips.

We run a Tipping competition in house at Demonology. There is a thread on our Footy Forum with instructions.

There's plans to implement in-house tipping like on 'Ology (Tim_ stole my thunder, dammit!!), but it's not going to be ready in time for this season. Presumably our tipping will be run through OZTips just as it has been in the past, but I have no idea who organises that.

Tim's tipping setup on Demonology is pretty good.

Andy used to set up OZTips, and i'm not sure if WJ has asked him to set it up again. I haven't got the time to at the moment unfortunately.

As Nozz has said, it'll hopefully be set up in-house for season 2008.

I've just been corresponding with WJ re tipping sites. I ran one last year and I think I've got all the bugs out.

I'm happy for Demonlanders to have a go at it (no charge).

It's a bit different in that teams are weighted. Here's an extract from the rules:

# The object of this competition is to accumulate points. Points are awarded by correctly choosing a winner. For instance, let's say the game is Carlton vs. Geelong and the points are awarded as 80 for Carlton and 20 for Geelong. You choose Carlton and they win. Then you get 80 points. But if Geelong wins, you receive 0 points.

# For each game, the underdog team will be awarded more points than the favorite. So in the above-mentioned game, Carlton is the underdog. Also, all points for each game will add up to 100.

# In the event of a draw no points will be awarded for that match.

# For an upset special, you will be able to choose among a list of underdogs. If your chosen underdog ends up winning, you get 1.5 times the points possible for that game. Say it was the same Carlton-Geelong game as above. You choose Carlton as your upset special and they win. Therefore you would receive 1.5 X 80 = 120 points. However, if your upset special does not win, you receive 0 points.

# Choosing the certainty of the week is almost same as the upset special. The only difference is that you receive twice as many points and you can only choose among favorites or teams in even (50-50) games

Join up and have a go (repeat - no cost!!)

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
