Murdoch 2018 AFL Footy Tipping Competition

Come and Join Murdoch 2018 AFL Footy Tipping Competition

2018 Murdoch AFL Footy Tipping Competition will start on Thursday 23 March 2018
Please do join our friendly but fierce office competition and your chance to share in some nice cash prizes.

2018 will be the 122nd Season of the AFL competition with round 1 kicking off on Thursday 22 March, with the first game being the Defending Premiership Winner Richmond vs Carlton at the grand old MCG.
Closer to home the Fremantle Dockers will be playing and Port Adelaide on Saturday, while the West Coast Eagles will tackle the Sydney Swan at home in the brand new Perth Stadium on the Sunday…C’mon all, show ‘em what you got!! (Not showing any biases of course).
The Western Bulldogs showed us with their first Premiership in 62 years in 2017, while the Tigers did it in 2018 - 37 years after their last premiership… anything can happen, so even if you feel like the underdog this could be YOUR year. The money is nice but bragging rights are even BETTER!

PRIZES
There will be a weekly cash prize and overall season prizes. Over the last few years the number of tippers has grown with more than sixty people from all areas of the Murdoch community signing up last year. The more the merrier, could you please spread the words and invite your Murdoch colleagues to join in, it will also increase the amount of prizes.
The prize pool will consist of 75% of the weekly pool paid out as the weekly prize, which was a little over $117 for each week’s winners in 2016.
Weekly winners will be determined by the tipper’s score for the round in question and then by their margin difference for the same round and then by their accumulated margin. Just as a reminder, we only tip for the home and away season.
Twenty-five per cent of each weekly pool will be carried forward for season prizes, which will be:
• 1st: 40% of season prize pool
• 2nd: 30% of season prize pool
• 3rd: 20% of season prize pool
• 4th: 10% of season prize pool
