Yes Sportznut,I watched the delayed telecast,but was more concerned by the margin bracket rather than the actual margin.
My ratings had Collingwood by 27 points but I gave Richmond 18 points for the new coach and the motivation to win.That dropped the margin to 9 points.
Unfortunately I gave them a further 6 points because Buckley wasn't playing making my prediction 3 pts.
But I realize that my player ratings would have allowed for the fact that Buckley was out so I know better for next time.

Just thought of something!
Suppose Richmond wins by 2 points.Nearest tipster had Richmond by 18 points.Would I have been the most accurate?

I'm not doing any ratings until the real stuff comes around. I just thought that Collingwood were about 18-24 points better than Richmond and took a couple of goals off for no Buckley. So I thought they'd perhaps win by between 6 & 12 points. In the end I went with 10 pts.

Fremantle's leading by 7 at half time.

No. Even though technically you would have been the closest, you have to pick the winning team to have a chance at the bonus 2 points.

How about Collingwood wins by 25.I tipped them by 24.I get a point for the win,but zero for the margin.Am I still in the running for the nearest tipster 2 point bonus?

Live scores from http://afl.com.au/

Having a bit of trouble with that site at the moment, but you can always use this as a backup:

West Coast 16 in front now, halfway through the 3rd quarter. I'll be damn mad if the West Coast run away with this. Was originally going to tip them, but I was swayed by weight of money and opinion.

Yes, and you'd be highly likely to get it.
