Why is it every year I enter Footy tipping Comps of either code, I end up never winning??
Hawthorn beating Geelong WTF????? And yet these guys and girls who have no interest or knowledge of either game end up winning??? |

Thats just the way it is. Every week you have to gamble on a couple of roughies if you expect to win.
I know what you mean though it can get frustrating. Hawks actually arent that bad anymore either. |

The Mighty Cowboys! What a game of football, I fell to my knees when newcastle grabbed that intercept try with 20 seconds to go. Was ready to smash the remote :hihi: But it turned out all good, that has to be the most satisfying victory since SOO 1 last year. But that was the only game I tipped so far for this round :

Rugby isn't football!
How often do you see them kick the ball? |

Rugby bum sniffers. The game where one man pushing 2 men up 3 mens bums seems. Its a tough game, but don't you think they scrum is just a little ghey. They even had weirdo's who liked to stick fingers up other mens bums. Yes, Rugby league, its a game that has high standards. Well higher than most of those players education.

I usually tip all the home teams, but there's no exact science to it.
