Sportz, just 1 question, did you pick the margins, 1-24 & 25+, instead of 1-39 & 40+ to make it harder or easier ?

To make it more even and more of a challenge. If we had 1-39 & 40+, people would simply pick 1-39 most of the time, whereas a margin of 24 points makes you think a bit more.

It's also a better comparison to the Union & League margin of 1-12 & 13+ points. If you look at the odds, in most games 40+ is quite a bit longer in the betting than 1-39 points, whereas in League & Union, the two margins are reasonably close together in the betting.

I've wondered for a long time why they use 39 points instead of 24 points or even 30 points which seem to make more sense to me.

By the way, so far in two rounds of our AFL tipping comp, it's 10-6 in favour of the 1-24 margin. Had we been using 1-39 points, it would have been 13-3. So you see it just makes it a bit more even.

Possibly find Primo and the Czar down there as well!

And to you BJ,well done on your tip on Melbourne.
See,you actually can get things right when you put your mind to it.
But you still need to do a lot of work to climb the ladder.
