SA Footy

Folks

I've thought about running a comp like this for a while and wondered if anyone else would be interested in partaking.

The rules are pretty simple. Pick your team as per normal - but weight your selection on a 10,8,6,5,4,3,2,1 scale depending on how confident you are that that team will win. If your team wins, you get those points. Your team loses, you get 0.

So for instance, the draw is:

St Kilda vs Freo in Melb
Melb vs Rich in Melb
Coll vs North in Melb
WCE vs Geel in Perth
Adel vs Bris in Adel
Carl vs Syd in Melb
WB vs Port in Melb
Ess vs Haw in Melb

My tips would be

St Kilda 10
Coll 8
WB 6
Adel 5
Gee 4
Syd 3
Haw 2
Rich 1

Results are:

St Kilda, North, WB, Adel, Geel, Carl, Ess and Melb win

My points are 10, 0, 6, 5, 4, 0, 0, 0 = 25

Obviously toward the end of season, when you want to try and pick upsets, they can become worth 10 points, depending on how gutsy you are (or how far behind you are).

Any takers? I'll only do it if I get 10 takers.

I like the idea. More then happy to join this if your willing to run it. Bit different but i like

nice, i like it. put me down as another...

Wouldn't you just go 10 for all of your tips to maximise your points?
There's no penalty for getting them wrong.
Maybe you should get minus points for getting it wrong.

count me in.

Na, you have one tip at 10, one at 8, one at 6 etc, etc etc....

Sounds good - count me in too

As with CoverKing, if you are willing to do the work mate, Moeman is in!

I'll give it a crack.

As with a few comps in 2010 SAFooty will more than likely put some prizes up, if you get this up and running gadj let me know and we will put something on the end of it

Cheers

Yes please.

I'll have a stab Gadj (hopefully updated more regularly than the EPL tipping ) if you have room.

I'm keen

Thanks Dutchy

We now have a competition (ie, more than 10) so if you can have a scout about for some prizes that'd be great.
