Read MoreMoSHPlay_Marg tipped the card this week, and with just nine games to play to complete the season, will be very hard to catch on the Head-to-Head Tipsters’ Leaderboard, which it still leads by three tips from MoSHBODS_Marg.
The all-Tipster average for the week came in at 7.8 from 9, with only Home Sweet Home bagging fewer than eight correct tips.
Read Moret’s not exactly a secret (if you’ve been following the narrative) that the MoS twins don’t care much, relatively speaking, for the Eagles, so it’s not entirely surprising that MoSHPlay might only have them defeating the Roos by only just over 3 goals.
Read MoreWe’ve been spoiled with a full board of Totals markets, the details of which appear below.

Read MoreThis season, for lots of reasons, has felt like a very long one, but we have at last come to the final home-and-away round (as silly as that descriptor for the weekly games continues to be this year).

Read MoreIt’s very tight at the top of the MoSSBODS Leaderboard now, with the Top 3 separated by just 0.2 Scoring Shots, and the Top 6 by 2.2 Scoring Shots. Richmond now heads that Leaderboard after climbing three places in Round 17 and deposing Geelong.
Things were a little more stable on MoSHBODS, with Geelong and Richmond maintaining 1st and 2nd place respectively, although Port Adelaide did sneak into 3rd place.
Read MoreMoSHPlay_Marg tipped the winner in 6 of the 9 contests this week, which was enough to extend its lead on the Head-to-Head Tipsters’ Leaderboard to three tips over Bookie Knows Best, RSMP_Simple, and, now, MoSHBODS_Marg.

Read MoreMoSHPlay_Marg tipped the winner in 6 of the 8 contests this week, which was an equal-best top score and enough to see its lead on the Head-to-Head Tipsters’ Leaderboard extended to two tips over Bookie Knows Best and RSMP_Simple.
