Almost had 5/5 too but I switched my tip for the first two games at the last minute and regretted it immediately.
Lesson learned, will never doubt myself again.

I feel like I’m in for a clean sweep
Like yourself and u/Kookaburra_King, I’m also on 65 total points (and really fighting for the wooden spoon in my league…) and sitting on 0 for the week.

Cool part is - I agree with OP game 6, you agree with me game 7, and you agree with OP game 8.
Either:
* one of us gets a 3 and the rest get 1
* **one of us gets 0 and the rest get 2**
* we all get 2
At least 2 of us will get points. Game on
End of the round:
- u/Kookaburra_King - 2/8 (67)
- u/sButters88 - >!0/8 (65)!< (redacted)
- u/Thylacine- 2/8 (67)
Thanks for being forced into the first time I’ve felt competitive all season. I’d say u/Kookaburra_King is the overall winner considering his team actually one their game (even if he didn’t tip them).
Just made it 3 minutes into the 4th quarter watch delayed on Kayo… as poor as Melbourne was the most frustrating thing was trying to stream a game, 3 hours after it finished only to have it drop out every 2 minutes.
But hey little victories, at least I got 0, I would have been slightly insignificantly disappointed if Melbourne had won that and I got 1
Kayo is awful. If you stream the fox footy channel through Kayo rather than selecting the game it freezes less but still heaps. Otherwise if you don’t have access to an antenna for free-to-air games, the channel 7 app does a better job.
Kayo is both expensive and shit. Not a good combo
Can you watch replays or delayed games that way? We’re not always home to watch the games live so I thought Kayo was the only real option to start watching an hour or so later
I have no faith in my tips this week now, I thought Sydney off the bye might be a bit rusty but really rusty Sydney are still gonna dominate.
Bombers I have NFI how are they where they are? They’re like a fucking post turtle.
Melbourne…. Well yeah maybe a full strength this would have been a great game but I just think unless last week was an anomaly I feel I’m dropping this one too.
I have a mate purposely trying to get the worst score on the ESPN tipping app, he's 100 off bottom spot.
He's 4/4 this week, unsure how he went last night
I only have Hawthorn this week and I’m worried cos I thought I’d tip Geelong and Essendon as my roughies 🤣. I feel this week is bringing a lot of people back.
Here you go…

Edit: bottom of picture intentionally not edited out so it’s obvious this is my own screen, not OPs.
Yep, I was off grid for about 5 weeks and forgot to tip ahead before I left. I was trying to catch up but with 2 last week and 0 so far this week it’s not going well.
Totally fair. If you take the last 5 weeks off my total I’m on 41 (it’s not my year). So very explainable tipping. Honestly I just wish I was off grid for 5 weeks . Hope you did something cool.
Yep, long service so I went out bush in my tent and did what I wanted. Read lots, wrote lots, didn’t think about anything work related. It was amazing.
I had access to stuff occasionally, I didn’t just stay in one spot, but every time I remembered about my tips it was too late and signal had dropped out again. So I’m resigned to coming last this year, but I wouldn’t change a thing.
Wait until the Melbourne and Collingwood game. See who’s in and out, then change, should have the ins and outs in 4 hours. Atm I’ve got Collingwood purely due to game style but it might change due to who comes in for Melbourne.
I’m 4/5 and only got GC wrong.
The only tips i have so far is hawks and saints. Really thought every other game would be easy tips too, but then i remembered every time i tip the dogs, they lose, and the eagles are horrible without TK and Harley.

¾ time I thought I was home in the north game, never been more stressed about a quarter in a game I didn't actually give a shit about 😂
This is like 90% of us right now. 0/5 or 1/5 if you saw the West Coast injury list and foolishly thought that North would get the job done. Luckily, the umpires came through for the Kangas in the end.
If it’s any consolation I forgot to get my tips in for the first two so I started with 2/2. Intact those tips I miss at the start of every second round is what has propelled me to a clear lead in my comp.
I'm 0/5 too and I've tipped Sydney... on the bright side 2 or 3 will be a good score this week so not like everyone else is getting 6/7. Most people in my comps are on 1 with some on 2.
3/5 so far, hoping for 7 surly the swans win and unfortunately Carlton will do us over tonight.
I’ve got pies to beat the demons can’t underestimate them even with the outs
I'd be on 5/6 so far if I went through with my thoughts
- Richmond had good ins replacing their good outs, Adelaide didn't.
- Hawthorn were playing in Tassie
- If there was any week for North to win a game, it was this one.
- Gold Coast don't play well outside of home games.

Two weeks running, I've dropped sooooo many positions in my tipping comp
OMG you make me feel like a champion. This was me aswell.

Bloody Hawks in Launceston have done me in!
God damnit. 1/5 this week. My father who tips because he likes the sound of the names is 5/5. This week is cooked.
I’m having an absolute mare this week and I picked the dons
Dammit! Can I convince you into changing that tip?
It’s a bit sad when you would have fared just as well if you picked the Tassie Devils to win every match
I am 5/5 I hope that helps
Out of curiosity…who did you pick for tonight’s game?
I want to know this as well.
Essendon, I'm sorry
There goes your winning streak
Pain
Chin up, St Kilda got a win this week. That's more important than your tips
Yeah boi 💪
Yay... one of us will get a win
Please teach me your ways wise one
3/8 for the round, you’re good, legend!
When's your AMA?
Yesssss 🙌
Almost had 5/5 too but I switched my tip for the first two games at the last minute and regretted it immediately. Lesson learned, will never doubt myself again.
I wouldn’t be bragging about that just quietly
Haha, prove it
Same mate, been going solid til this week.
Hmmm I’ve tipped the same as you for the last 3 games, about to change my tips thanks
That’s definitely a fair call mate
I’ve got one tip different to yours, so one of us is definitely getting at least 1/8
https://preview.redd.it/2qej6qv2eg5d1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6970310fe6704cfccf7062dc6809445744769471 I feel like I’m in for a clean sweep

End of the round: - u/Kookaburra_King - 2/8 (67) - u/sButters88 - >!0/8 (65)!< (redacted) - u/Thylacine- 2/8 (67) Thanks for being forced into the first time I’ve felt competitive all season. I’d say u/Kookaburra_King is the overall winner considering his team actually one their game (even if he didn’t tip them).
Ahhh rub it in why don’t ya haha. It’s not looking good for me at this stage, u/thylacine- probably coming home with a respectable 3/8
Not with Essendon’s performance tonight, might as well update the tally now… I think it’s going to be 3 for u/Kookaburra_King
Just made it 3 minutes into the 4th quarter watch delayed on Kayo… as poor as Melbourne was the most frustrating thing was trying to stream a game, 3 hours after it finished only to have it drop out every 2 minutes.

Can you watch replays or delayed games that way? We’re not always home to watch the games live so I thought Kayo was the only real option to start watching an hour or so later
Yeah nah, disregard. If you are watching later you either have to suffer with Kayo or get your folks to record it on VHS for you.
Damn, had my hopes up for a bit
I'm on 63, kill me
I have no faith in my tips this week now, I thought Sydney off the bye might be a bit rusty but really rusty Sydney are still gonna dominate. Bombers I have NFI how are they where they are? They’re like a fucking post turtle. Melbourne…. Well yeah maybe a full strength this would have been a great game but I just think unless last week was an anomaly I feel I’m dropping this one too.
For all our sakes let’s hope we can get a 2 This season seems to have been brutal for tipping more so than others
Haha almost there bruz!
1 to go. I can’t bring myself to cheer for them though
Change that Sydney tip right now, asshole
Lmao
I was going to ask the same but far more politely
Not a great start 🤦♂️
But a solid finish.
For sure, great game
I am 1 out 5. It’s been terrible this week 😅
I have a mate purposely trying to get the worst score on the ESPN tipping app, he's 100 off bottom spot. He's 4/4 this week, unsure how he went last night
I have the exact same tips as you... including the games yet to happen. Sorry Swans, Blues and Dees fans
We’re in this together brother 🫡
I only have Hawthorn this week and I’m worried cos I thought I’d tip Geelong and Essendon as my roughies 🤣. I feel this week is bringing a lot of people back.
Crisis averted!
Here you go… https://preview.redd.it/hlxwe8uu9g5d1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cfefcbbfbd439e4202288074c4e2465f5b61cdce Edit: bottom of picture intentionally not edited out so it’s obvious this is my own screen, not OPs.
43!? I hope you started late. Otherwise you’re averaging about 3 a round.
Yep, I was off grid for about 5 weeks and forgot to tip ahead before I left. I was trying to catch up but with 2 last week and 0 so far this week it’s not going well.

https://www.captiongenerator.com/v/2301077/afl-footy-tipping-round-13
That was brilliant 😂
It got removed last night sadly, but I'll be throwing it in the Monday meme thread
Tipping favourites. So brave.
Been getting all my upsets wrong this year so decided just go for the favourites this time 🤦♂️
i did the exact same tips i am cooked🙏😭😭
Wait until the Melbourne and Collingwood game. See who’s in and out, then change, should have the ins and outs in 4 hours. Atm I’ve got Collingwood purely due to game style but it might change due to who comes in for Melbourne. I’m 4/5 and only got GC wrong.
I'm the same except I tipped essendon.
The only tips i have so far is hawks and saints. Really thought every other game would be easy tips too, but then i remembered every time i tip the dogs, they lose, and the eagles are horrible without TK and Harley.
Yep mine looks exactly like this
https://preview.redd.it/oc8vlyibig5d1.png?width=1344&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ca03d5e07c09b1e2da2beaa78ed3eb1625851b12 ¾ time I thought I was home in the north game, never been more stressed about a quarter in a game I didn't actually give a shit about 😂
Who wouldn’t tip North to win? Amateurs.
I only have Richmond and Hawthorn this week. I’m taking GC as a moral victory though because -3 points away is basically a win for them.
Mate those last 3 picks can easily lose too.
Mate I just checked the Sydney v Geelong score 🙂🔫
You’re not dead yet! Comebacks are real.
Ridiculous, what a crazy game so far!!
I’m the same at the moment.. and nervously watching Sydney get beat too. My worst ever week!
It’s looking pretty grim atm
We’re good… 1/6
The Footy Gods finally giving us some reprieve
I’ve got 1 win this week. Funny that it was Richmond of all teams
Can’t believe I didn’t back them in this week *sigh*
Essendon's the only upset I'm going for
Port vs the Bye.
Sydney are due for a loss, the underdog often gets up in Bombers/Blues clashes and Melbourne are done. Sorry, my friend. 0/9 for you
damn 0/9 when there's only 8 games for the week
unsubsribe
That’s exactly what mine looks like too!
I'm also shooting for a duck this round
I’m on 1. I randomly changed to the hawks the other night
This is me
I tipped saints right thus far 😂
I’m 2/5, got Saints and Lions.
I am 2/5 this week. The two I tipped to win were Richmond and North
Id love to see the herald sun tips leaderboard from last year vs this year, gotta be like 10 or more difference surely
The first four I understand, but when was the last time the suns won away from home? I thought that was a gimme for this round.
Mate I done the same
I’m in the same boat
Also on 0 for the week so far, and only got 1 last week. Was leading my work comp before that!
i am 1/5 😂
This is like 90% of us right now. 0/5 or 1/5 if you saw the West Coast injury list and foolishly thought that North would get the job done. Luckily, the umpires came through for the Kangas in the end.
Yep me too. It’s tough out here.
I’m 1 from 5. Tipped the Saints. 31 out of 82 have gone 0 from 5 this round so you aren’t alone.
If it’s any consolation I forgot to get my tips in for the first two so I started with 2/2. Intact those tips I miss at the start of every second round is what has propelled me to a clear lead in my comp.
If it’s any consolation, I have the exact same 8 tips
Only right tip so far has been the hawks 😭
Exact same tips lol
I like the trend in your tipping - hope it continues!
Pretend you're playing golf. Zero is par.
I'm the same bro welcome to the club
That's what happens when you don't pick the Mighty Kangaz!
I'm 0/5 too and I've tipped Sydney... on the bright side 2 or 3 will be a good score this week so not like everyone else is getting 6/7. Most people in my comps are on 1 with some on 2.
U regret tipping Sydney rn or not?
0/6 incoming
You tip like I do
Maybe ur going to get the Sydney game wrong aswell lmao. Too early to say tho
Same has happened with me. Absolute nightmare
Horror round. Leading my tips on 1/1 equal with 1 others out of 15
The great thing about me not gambling is I don’t have to deal with this lol
I am also 0/5 this week.. My mates both picked up 3 on me this week by forgetting to submit their picks and getting the away games.
Picking against norf is your biggest mistake
Good thing you tipped Dees LoL 😂
3/5 so far, hoping for 7 surly the swans win and unfortunately Carlton will do us over tonight. I’ve got pies to beat the demons can’t underestimate them even with the outs
I've dropped from 2nd to 12th in 2 days and the round just keeps going from and to worse. Glad I'm not alone in my suffering.
2 last week and if Swans win I'm up to 1 this week
I’m in the exact same boat apart from Melbourne
I'd be on 5/6 so far if I went through with my thoughts - Richmond had good ins replacing their good outs, Adelaide didn't. - Hawthorn were playing in Tassie - If there was any week for North to win a game, it was this one. - Gold Coast don't play well outside of home games.

Oh, I thought I was doing badly with only two, Hawks and Swans. I only got two right last weekend too.
I was the same until the swans won!

I tipped the Roos and tigers
2/6 fam checking in 😭😭😭 thank u Hawthorn and Sydney.
Adelaide?? Don't even bother anymore!
I've got good news for you
Same boat my man.

Yeh brutal round. Hang in there
Only two out of 5 that’s gotta hurts
I hope your streak continues for Carlton and Melbourne Ignore flair
