Mon 30 August 2004 - Eight out of eight, baby

Well the last weekend of footy tips has just gone, and there was a great article in Saturday’s Age about the whole phenomenon, well worth reading.

I’ve had a good year in the footy tipping. So when at the start of the weekend, I was equal first in the work competition, and leading by 1 point in Tony’s competition.

Now it’s the end of the weekend… and I’ve got a big eight out of eight.

As it turns out, so did my competitor in the work competition. So I guess we’ll be sharing the prize money.

But what about the Tony Malloy memorial footy tipping urn, possibly the ugliest trophy ever to be awarded in any field of human endeavour, I hear you ask? Well, there’s no way runner-up Trish could have scored nine out of eight and caught up, so I guess the urn will be coming to live at my house.
