Oh well. I guess I led with the chin there letting you know I have been second out a dozen, or so people a year a few times for a prize which is well ummm nothing...  :)

Good luck to you for winning.  I always think its worth remembering the saying "one day a rooster, next day a feather duster" fame is so ephemeral 

Thanks.
It was my first time tipping. It is more tricky than I thought. I find fantasy teams easier.
Will be interesting to see if I can back it up next season.

Congratulations, I know best. Well done!

Good to see no one picked MV.  Didnt see that coming, but thats finals football for you.  

Sigh... second again.  Third year in a row.  There is always next year...

I bet you choose Real Madrid on FIFA.

You won the "I am a big sore losers" comp.
The winner is me me me.

I also won the tipping competition.

Some people are just not good losers.
I however am a great winner, even if I do say so myself.
Iknowbest = the person who knows the best as proven by winning the tipping competition.
If you don't like that fact then you will just have to wait until the end of next season to say otherwise or look like a big sook.

Don't stop now guys, this is a great read.😂

No catchup required.

Winners are griners.
Losers are losers.
Don't get caught on the wrong side of that line.

You're too much of a tosser for me to do that.

I will.
Perhaps next time just say well done to the winner (or say nothing at all).

What ever man. It's a tipping comp.
Enjoy your win.

And you lose like a SFC fan.

I tipped more right than you. A bit like SFC and MV.

And yet somehow I still know more than you.
Maybe you can show me how much you know next year but for now I am the winner and you the loser. A bit like MV and SFC.

You know nothing.

.Be it known - Nobody tipped MVC to win the GF

And the winner is.. drum roll please.......

You are third,
I'm second.  Again. 
Maybe next year....

Just couldn't tip when it counted.

Goes to show, you can have all the possession and still lose 

I don't think you can complain. I have correctly tipped more than anyone in the 442 competition and I'm currently in 3rd place because of double points rounds. I'm literally over 1,000 places ahead of you on the site ladder. Does it really matter though?

So this week is worth 4 points ?

It is kind of like MV vs SFC. The rules are stacked against me just like how officials tried to help SFC. It will make the win all the more sweet.

its a Joker round, so I think its double points, pretty sure you da man though.

Am I officially the winner yet or is the Grand Final Triple points or something to give you losers a chance ?

Damn double points gets me again. Catchup in this competition is worse than Mario Kart.

Looks like its double points for correct tipping in the finals, and the GF is a joker round, so double points there , its still wide open at the top
