WINNING MARGIN COMPETITION. 2010
This is a competition that has been run for about 6 years now on Saintsational and is always very popular.
Basically you pick the margin you think we will win by in that given round and your margin will be added to the list.
No-one can pick the same margin as another person. For example once 24 points has been selected, no-one else can take it that week.
Once you have made your selection, sorry but you can't change it.
The scoring system is as follows.
A correct selection is worth 10 points.
within 1 = 5 points
within 2 = 4 points
within 3 = 3 points
within 4 = 2 points
within 5 = 1 point
Winners in GF2 v Collingwood:

Dools...just letting you know you didn't update the Cats game either...I correctly tipped the winning margin of 4 pts and there were a couple of others close to the mark who would've got pts too. A small thing but those 10 points might make a difference.saintdooley wrote:Guys, entries are open for the GF.
sorry i never got around to updating it for the doggies game, but will do that tomorrow and change the ladder around to what it should be.
also PakenhamSaint, i hate to tell you but i picked 25 a bit before you, so your tip doesnt count![]()
and il take 19 in the GF and update it all tomorrow.

No probs Bud. It's only a bit of fun. Nothing to stress about. If it's too late it's too bad.saintdooley wrote:il do my best to see what i can do, i think i have made a bad mistake and deleted all scores for the cats game.Schillaci wrote:Dools...just letting you know you didn't update the Cats game either...I correctly tipped the winning margin of 4 pts and there were a couple of others close to the mark who would've got pts too.

i think what we will do is forget this weeks and go all over again? so if you tipped a draw, 1pt, 2 pts etc.. it doesnt count seeing as there was no winner at the end of the day.
let me know what you think.
and also, let me know if you want the same margin or a different one.

I reckon still give points? After all it was still an official match. Your call though, I'm sure some of the other members will give some feedback on this as well.saintdooley wrote:i think what we will do is forget this weeks and go all over again? so if you tipped a draw, 1pt, 2 pts etc.. it doesnt count seeing as there was no winner at the end of the day.

I'll go with 45 vs Collingwood in the AFL Grand Final Replay.
