2011 AFL footy tipping Uglybustards winners

Hi Tipsters,

The 2011 R28 / Finals Week 4 Results are on the Uglybustards site, proudly brought to you by Broo Beer and The Laugh Garage.

Go to the Tipping Ladder page to see the final standings.

 In one of the most climactic finishes ever witnessed in Uglybustards history, a tired and emotionally drained powerful has been overcome by an exhausted never-say-die Griggsy who literally willed himself over the line in a heart-wrenching display of pure guts and determination in the final round of the season.

Having carried the onerous burden of competition leadership for the past 16 rounds, an amazing effort in itself, powerful finally succumbed to the relentless pressure tourniquet applied by Griggsy, and although employing reverse psychology in his Pies tip, that exact same reverse psychology was courageously predicted by Griggsy who tipped the Cats.
