This is the 9th year that this comp will run and after taking this over from bgt2110 , the mods hope to continue making it an annual fixture of the board. Hopefully we can get as many entrants as possible and if you have a little bit of spare time on your hands during the lead up to preseason then you might want to get your tips in early.
I will be making a slight change to how you enter your tips - see below
Just like the 2021 competition, you are allowed 1 life this year, so you can tip 1 incorrect tip and still stay alive. Once you get 2 wrong, you are OUT.
I have provided a link to the forum thread from 2021
Link to the 2021 comp : Competitions - Knockout Footy Tipping Competition 2021 - straightuplazy wins!
This is a footy tipping comp you all might have played before but with a slight difference.
Just tip one game winner for every round for all 23 rounds before the first game of round 1.
Link to the 2021 Fixture : AFL Fixtures and Results - AFL.com.au
HOW TO PLAY
Please be aware that this comp is different to the usual pick 1 winner a week each week, this comp requires all 23 picks to be made and sent to me before round 1.
Please tip who you think will finish 10th after round 23.
You will advance to the next round should you get the tip right. A drawn game will count as a loss, you must tip a winner
The last person in the comp wins.
If there are more than one person left and then the following week they all get eliminated (i.e. all get their tips wrong), then they will not get eliminated as there needs to be one person left standing to be heralded the winner. If by round 23 there is still more than one person left (very doubtful but just in case), then the person whose chosen team is closest to 10th place will win.
Restrictions:
-You Cannot tip the same team twice in a row to win
-You Cannot tip the same team more than 5 times throughout the year
-You Cannot tip against the same team more than 5 times throughout the year
PRIZES:
1. A nice shiny forum badge - will be in the form of a boxing glove with KO on it.
The competition is restricted to members of BigFooty Essendon supporters.
Your tips need to be lodged through to myself via PM or email (DO NOT POST YOUR TIPS IN THIS THREAD) before 5:00pm on Wednesday 16 March 2022 (It's the Wednesday when round 1 begins). Tips lodged after that deadline will not be accepted.
You may change your tips anytime until Wednesday 16 March 2022 at 5:00pm. After this deadline, you may not change your tips.

It really is that simple. You only post your tips ONCE and never have to do them again all year.
First you need to post if you are interested in playing so I can see the numbers. If you want to enter please indicate your interest in this thread.
You are welcome to send me your tips at anytime up until the deadline of Wednesday 16 March 2022 at 5.00pm.
Good Luck and have fun
