TT Super Comp

I have never seen one of your comps as close as this current one. Any team is capable of defeating any other.
Pleasing for me is the attitude of punters making their own selections without being negative and taking opponents pix.
In an early round my rival selected 14 the same as me, but generally there are only 6-8 the same which makes for an exciting comp race by race.

Howie must be shakin' in his slippers...

haha, Brian ....."shakin' in my slippers" .......hardly ! :)

Even my detractors acknowledge that whatever my deficiencies and there are many ....lack of confidence isn't one of them ! :D

My early assessment ...the dark Horsies are toast ! Dark Horsies on the slide on the leaderboard....Double AAs on the rise.

You're absolutely right though about the closeness of the Comp overall, Brian. All down to the draft. In the interests of development of the sport we've sent our Mighty Blues geniuses to teams near and far, spreading the word and lifting the standards. Pete, Brian, Gordy, Geoff. Look at Pete ...top of the tree in the 'Magnificent Seven.'

With the top scoring teams in the Comp being on 11 points only from 6 rounds, there may be a thought that Team Captains have recklessly wasted their Joker play. My view is ...not at all. The unprecedented evenness of teams is such that boilovers are a  regular feature, and easy wins are a thing of the past.

Well .................were a thing of the past .....until us Double AAs completely overwhelm the Dark Horsies this Saturday.:)

Double AAs to deliver a masterclass.

Interesting statement skipper.

More often than not I pick after my opponent (because I like to see track conditions, scratchings, etc..) and on many occasions I will have 10 or more picks the same as my opponent.  I tend to follow form and therefore don't often pick outside the first 4 or so favourites in a race.   Picking second against someone who does likewise means I will often have a number of picks in common.  I don't deliberately change my picks to have less in common (unless I've breached Peter's limit).

I personally don't consider this is "negative" and I certainly wouldn't label it "taking opponents pix".  If the person who picked second couldn't take their opponents picks then the first picker would have a huge advantage.   I think Peter has set a very fair limit (6 different) - doesn't give either first player or second player advantage.

Anyway back to my study - still trying to break into the Magnifcent 7.

Ooh what's this? A bit of dissent in the Maybe Dollars ranks!?  TC challenging the party leadership - not sure that he'd have the numbers he needs to stage a coup.

Meanwhile back at Lay Down Misere camp there is a relatively good vibe despite the current predicament - in last place but only a good second round joker play away from the top four. 

Which reminds me, Peter, is it top 4 that we're aiming for to be in the championship play-offs?

TC....my point being...it is much more enjoyable on race day when there is a wide difference in selections including  BB's...one character recently posted the same BB's as mine.

Would love you to join Jill and I in the M7would show the true strength of the Dollarz

John, I'm pretty sure I scheduled a 4 team Finals format but will check when I get back to work next week. Currently flat on my back at home with the worst sciatica imaginable. :(

Time clashes with other big races - NZ & Melbourne. Apologies for their omission, They look like great contests

Sure are. Missing a $1m Guineas for a nondescript mares race did look a bit odd....;)

Study hard TC, I have always found the more study you put in then the more you move off the winner, rather than on to it :)
I am studying the weather... the spots on the window look ominous for Ellerslie. Is that a cyclone they are forecasting??
You better get on those mud larks TC!

Get well soon Pete. I've had it, old football damage, so know what you are going through. Have you had slipped or compressed discs or just been picking up heavy stuff..? The old raising one leg and putting opposite ankle on your knee ( do both ) helps.....;)

Commiserations PJ.
I went through the "take me out back and shoot me" stage a year ago and things are much better now.
You just need Sarah to run in with the beers and remote control when you holler :)
If you can lie flat then it is not the worst imaginable, trust me, and therefore the recovery should be quicker, we all hope.

Sorry to hear that Peter - hope you get well soon.  Sing out if you need me to help out with scoring.

Yeah the lying flat or on the non-affected side is a trick to keep the pain to the minimum. Got those exercises thanks Dave. Years of semi-profeesional Football, 5 years as an athlete (running 15-20kms a day), a helicopter crash, playing social volleyball on concrete for a few years, all take their toll......

Should still be okay to score on Saturday thanks John although given the level of medication I'm on I'm not sure about my tipping !
