Hi everyone!
Welcome to this Week 10 Tipping blog update edition!
Last week was the Joker round and it wouldn't be a Joker Round without some crazy results would it? No one managed to nail the All Correct but who would've thought you get the Storm losing and the Panthers & Titans both winning in the one week. The joker plays mind tricks with us again.

So to quicky wrap up all the results of week 10, a Suncorp Stadium double header on Friday night saw the Seaeagles defeat the Broncos 24-22 and the Titans upset the Doggies 25-14.
On Saturday a brave Roosters side went down 30-26 to the Warriors in a see-sawing match at Mt Smart Stadium and the Cowboys smoked a hapless Knights outfit 32-12 at Newcastle.

On Sunday, defence went out the window when the Raiders snatched a 40-34 victory over the Eels at Canberra and the Sharkies upset the top of the table Storm 12-10 without their inspirational captain Paul Gallen at Toyota Park.
And finally on Monday, the Panthers surprised the Dragons 13-12 at Penrith.

Here's what's happened in Week Ten!
THE SHARKIES END THE STORMS UNBEATEN RUN
Melbourne suffered its first loss of the season when upset 12-10 by the Sharks at Cronulla last Sunday.
In a tough battle in front of almost 15,000 fans, the Sharks hit the lead for the first time eight minutes from full-time when acting captain Jeremy Smith crashed over.
It came after Billy Slater returned to the field from the sin-bin.
Slater was ruled to have taken out Jeff Robson in the in-goal as the Cronulla half-back chased through his own kick.
Five-eighth Todd Carney converted Smith's try from out wide to give the home side a winning margin.
The Storm led 10-6 at half-time following tries to Dane Nielsen and Matt Duffie.
Nielsen scored off a Cooper Cronk bomb that was spilled by Sharks winger Isaac Gordon to grab the first try after 13 minutes.
Gordon made up for his error when he scored three minutes later to level the scores at 6-6.
The Sharks move into outright third spot with the win but the Storm remain on top of the table with nine wins from their opening 10 games.
Cronulla's performance was particularly creditable given they were without injured skipper Paul Gallen.
Another strong performance saw Carney secure his first New South Wales Origin jersey.

But it was his halves partner Jeff Robson who won the praise from coach Shane Flanagan and team-mates.
Flanagan was in great spirits following the win at the end of a week that saw him rushed to hospital with a twisted bowel.
"I'm not worried about me, that sort of performance cures most illnesses,'' Flanagan told the media.
"We went into the game needing to match Melbourne in discipline and not turning over the ball and although we weren't as good we Melbourne we were better than them in a few other areas.
"When Jeremy (Smith) came back on the field I think that was the turning point. He had a couple of good carries and scored the winning try."
Flanagan said it was half-back Robson's best game since coming to the Sharks this year.
"I knew what I was getting when I bought him, as I coached him as a kid at Parramatta," Flanagan said.
"He's a steady hand, a professional and he's playing some great football."
Robson said the Sharks were determined to bounce back after last week's narrow loss to Souths.
He said the side still has plenty of improvement in them and said he is enjoying playing alongside Carney.
"I think we're starting to gel pretty well together," Robson said.
"He's a great player, it takes the pressure off me and makes my job easier."
Flanagan is hopeful the Sharks' strong performance captures the attention of the corporate sector with the team yet to secure a major sponsor.
"Hopefully on the back of this result someone rings me on Monday morning," Flanagan said.
Melbourne coach Craig Bellamy said his team's effort was good but the Storm's attack was not firing at Cronulla.
"We were going sideways too much and not working off Cameron (Smith) enough," Bellamy said.
Sharks: 12 (I Gordon, J Smith tries; T Carney 2 goals)
Storm: 10 (D Nielsen, M Duffie tries; C Smith goal)
Crowd: 14, 595
