"Thanks for another great year which has seen me regain - in my eyes at least - my tipping dignity with a fast finishing 15th !!"
Tony C
TIPPING COMP TESTIMONIALS
"It is great you are remembering my old boss Jeremy Gilling who was one of the most passionate sports fans I've known. With the nickname ‘Boy Wonder’, he was a demon in office cricket,
an honest trier in our lunch time touch footie team (usually sent off for dissent) and his compassion for the underdog was usually reflected in his sporting tips. The Gilling Legacy is an apt one."

FATCAT'S 'NRL TIPPING COMPETITION WITH A DIFFERENCE'
The Earlwood Social Golf & Euchre Club, a magnet for under-performing golf and euchre
players from Earlwood and surrounds, is again hosting Fatcat's innovative 2. 'NRL Tipping Competition With A Difference'. An $80 entry fee, which
must be paid prior to the start of the competition, ensures participants a season of weekly angst.
There are a few things that make this competition stand apart from all the others. The first is so very simple and yet fiendishly difficult - you don't make a selection in every game. WTF !?! On
a normal weekend, you 'only' need to pick 3. 6 winners from any of the 8 games. These 6 picks are known as your scratch selections.
Second, another class of selections is added to the mix - handicap selections. The underdog in each game is given a points start and you must select a further 4 winners, again from any of the 8 games,
taking the starts into account.
Besides the major prizes, there are 4. 11 opportunities during the season to win some cash. And finally, Fatcat conducts an entertaining, professional and most importantly a
transparent competition as evidenced by the fact last year nearly half of the tipsters (48 of 103) had been playing for 20 years or more and 66 had been involved for at least 10 years.
1. With Round 1 split over two weekends and the first two games being played in the US, the tipping competition will begin on Thursday, March 6, with the remaining 6 games
2. Although sharing sporting, pseudo-celebrity, gambling interests and greatly admiring the now defunct charity's business acumen and chutzpah, Fatcat's
'NRL Tipping Competition With A Difference' was regrettably never associated with The Shane Warne Foundation. However, in a step up from registered charity status, the Earlwood Securities Exchange has accepted our
bona fides as an accredited Tier 1 Ponzi (or Pyramid) Scheme
3. Too easy to just pick 6 scratch winners? Last season, with 103 tipsters and 24 full rounds, there were only 30 occasions when all 6 selections
won or about 1.2%
4. Based on the 2024 competition
