NRL Tipping Competition Round 12 2026 Results Posted; Awards Presented

[Graham]

WELCOME 

Everyone reading this is welcome to join in whether you've taken part before or not. 

Round 12 is the first of the major bye rounds. There are just five matches this weekend.

So it's a good week for first time tipsters.

All you need to do is:

1. Name the 5 winning teams a drawn game after extra time counts as a win for both teams for the sake of our comp

2. How many points will be scored by all the teams added together in R12?  Used as tie breaker for the Champion Tipster title when there’s more than one top scorer

3. How many AWAY wins will there be in the round?  When a game is played on the road the first team named is taken as the home team.

4. Poll: Which game will produce the closest result? (that's the final points score difference between the two teams playing)  Enter in your post and also at the top of the topic

Entries welcome until the first game of the round kicks off on Thursday

You’re very welcome Ash. We are here to enjoy the game with just that extra element of seeing how our tips turn out. They’re all great folk on here, most are regulars, but we do have occasional tipsters. We hope you’ll join us regularly. It’s always great to add new people into the mix. The main effort is the match tipping. If there’s more than one top scorer, nearest to Total Points clinches the Champion Tipster award for the week.

Well done our three top scorers this week with a very creditable 4/5 correct tips.

Congratulations to our Champion Tipster THE RED ROOSTER.
