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!!)

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
