Fair round

In what I hope is a full on trend reversal, I actually managed to tip more than 2 correct games in the AFL on the weekend! *shock* *gasp* *horror* :)

I got 6 out of 8 this past round, which is about 4 points better than I've been doing in recent rounds. Just wish I had thought to use my 'double up' (which doubles your points effectively), so I could have got 12 points instead of 6 for this round. Sadly, we only get one chance to use our double up, and I wasn't game to try it after the appalling lack of luck I've had with the AFL tipping recently.

In related matters, I'm not doing too badly in the NRL tipping competition (similar to the AFL comp., but obviously for Rugby League instead of Aussie Rules), and even used my one double up chance this past week. As I got 7 out of 9, that was effectively 14 points points for round 11! Yay!! I'm really pleased with that. It got me higher up the ladder, but sadly I'm still about 27 tippers away from the top of the leaderboard. :( Still, I'm happy with my progress on the NRL tipping... just wonder why I'm not doing as well with the AFL... *sigh*

Maybe you could encourage your fingers to send a greeting across the pond whilst we melt in the unacustomed heat.
