Let the fun begin!

We've finally put a stop to the mad dash for registrations. This year's Garrard's Gold Footy Tipping Competition has had an incredible response, receiving an overwhelming 87 entries, making the prize pool a whopping $2175. The split this year will be $1000 (1st) , $525 (2nd) and $200 (3rd). The winning team in the Teams Comp will get $250 ($25 each) and the Dally M Medal winner will get $100. I've put aside $100 to assist with the cost of trophies, engraving and domain name registration. But let's be real - this is about more than just the prize money.....right? We're here to have some fun, and that's exactly what I've got lined up for you. After all... this is no regular competition... it's a competition, within a competition, within a competition. Below is a quick recap of our Comps.

• Points will be allocated for every Team's head 2 head fixture and awarded to the top 3 people who score the highest individual score across both Teams.

• Top 3 people will be determined by firstly their individual score, if equal, followed by their weekly margin, if still equal, followed by the person who belongs to the winning Team in that head 2 head match. If still equal, they will share equal Dally M points
