You and me both, Gorg ... post season often decent but in the regular season, I can't pick a road winner to save myself! The other interesting (and amusing) bit about this year's main comp is will the 2 that are still on zero get off the mark? 16 consecutive ducks is Jimmy Higgs-like! haha! As for who is going to do well in the playoffs, we probably should be having some conversations about it all. This is the time of the year where I've got stacks more time to devote to the NFL

There's always the post-season tipping comp!

The 4th season of Babylon Berlin has been released (about a month ago) ... haven't seen any of the 12 episodes as yet but by all accounts, a very strong season maintaining it's high standards

Bills Vegas Eagles

Interesting way of putting it, layz ... 'tipping career' I don't trust the Lions or Tampa. Bills for sure but I can't find one more, forget 2! I'm tempted to pick the Packers but Miami are a decent outfit. Eagles and Dallas is a toss of the coin Cinci should win but it's at New England/Belichick

Tough week (apart from the Bills)

Ha ha! Tenacious DZ in the house!

Entering the Flemington straight with 600m to travel, 3 participants have made their move and have shot away from the field. But 8 points are still up for grabs and a total of 3 bonus points for those who dare! And for those of us trailing the top 3, risks must now be taken considering that if there is only one successful tipster in any of the last 3 weeks, 3, 4 & 4 points can be attained. For the top 3, it's become a cat & mouse game! Leaderboard Tipping Comp 9 - DeeSpencer 7 - Go the Biff 6 - layzie 4 - Gorgoroth, titan_uranus, Clintosaurus, Macca 3 - Dr.Gonzo 2 - JV7 0 - TWSRN!

For the record, what might have been your 3rd pick, Gorg? (Eagles & KC were virtual morals)

Apparently the greatest comeback in NFL history!

Eagles Chiefs Cowboys

@layzie@Dee Zephyr@Go the Biff@Clintosaurus @JV7@DeeSpencer@Dappa Dan@titan_uranus @Dr. Gonzo @Gorgoroth @DemonDave Leaderboard Tipping Comp 7 - DeeSpencer 5 - Go the Biff 4 - Gorgoroth, titan_uranus, Clintosaurus, layzie, Macca 3 - Dr.Gonzo 2 - JV7 0 - TWSRN! 2 points on offer this week and from here on in, here are the points on offer (not including any bonus point) Week 16 - 2 points, Week 17 - 3 points, Week 18 - 3 points So which match is the trap game this week!? (surely not the Eagles or KC) *Shudder

Well done to Croatia (who also made the final in 2018) They really do punch above their weight Argentina get through after a classic match against the Dutch Can Morocco continue their run against Portugal? They are every chance And then the biggie ... England vs France. Another classic match-up. I favour the French but only slightly

If we get back to our best we can beat any team anywhere. Bring 'em all on! We need to be challenged and we need to challenge others Relish the games against the best and that includes the Cats on their ground

Eagles, Vikings, Chiefs (not exactly creative!)

Tonight Brazil should win but Croatia are a decent team. But holding out Brazil's strike power is easier said than done. 3-1 to Brazil The other game can go either way and we may see more than a few goals. This game promises a lot with Messi on show along with Holland's total football Could be one for the ages

A few of us probably thought about picking the Raiders (I know I did!) but just as well! Mayfield's numbers were more than tidy, all things considered

Pedestrian attack but Marnus is a freak anyway ... certainly knows how to cash in but from all accounts, he practices like no other Bring on the South Africans!

In effect, anyone can still win the prize (a virtual Gold Medal!) It's late in the 3rd quarter and time to make a move you blokes. Get creative!

Yes, quite right Well played gentlemen! And I've never understood why the 3rd place playoff is treated with such disdain 3rd place in the most popular sport in the world is a major achievement in my view Mini rant over!

Getting warmer!

A clue (don't want to drag it out too long) Each of the teams have reached a certain level (at least once) when participating at World cup level
