Final Update
Hey, it's not all whaling, depressing plays & flawless Nordic good-looks up in Norway; they can tip Aussie football codes too, can your Norwayanese. Sam Vimes correctly goes for Manly to carry off the spoils for the 2008 finals series, so fair play to him.
Sadly (for him) 99* is correct, Storm's no-show does indeed cost him the silver, which goes instead to Stedders who came from nowhere with a late dash for glory. Altoz takes the bronze from pinchy on the countback method after even bonus points and correct predictions couldn't split them. Both scored 8 in the last week, but tozzer got a 12 to pinchy's 8 in the penultimate week. Saggers nabs fifth.
Final round bonuses to Samuel, saggers, ripper, tozzer, Kyle, pinchy & Stedders.
Final Individual Table
1) Vimes - 41***
2) James90 - 36*
3) altoz - 35** (12)
4) pinchy - 35** (12)
5) pasag - 34*
6) 99* - 31*
7) ripper - 29*
8) HDS - 27* (13)
9) Brumby - 27* (12)
10) chaminda - 27
11) cameeel - 26*
12) NZT - 25**
13) morgieb - 25* (10)
14) Mr Wright - 25* (9)
15) SKD - 25
16) Matteh - 24*
17) mikeW - 23**
18) DCYE - 23
19) Simon - 22* (10)
20) speirz - 22* (7)
21) Clapo - 22
22) Burgey -21*
23) Bobisback - 20*
24) SirBloody Idiot - 20
25) archie - 10
In the team comp there's consolation for the Neutrals (HDS, 99* & ripper) who prove a balanced approach is the way to go. The AFL secure bragging rights over their league counterparts by taking second.
Final Team Table
1) Neutrals - 64.84% (83/128)
2) AFL - 62.50% (250/400)
3) NRL - 58.60% (293/500)
Thanks to all who took part.

Had a shocker in the finals series. As tipping against Melbourne only worked for me once. Think I did better in the AFL than I did in the NRL.
