Congratulations mate. I am just stoked to have been a fly on the wall to a record that will never be beaten.

I managed to hang on for 3rd. A result I would have only ever dreamed of 6 weeks ago.

Well done on 4th Caleb...and 6th Liam...and to all the other great results.

I really feel for you Pete. 19th a result that was the floor on what it could have been.
Great job, on your 3rd placing Andrew, and a very decent cheque.
The manner in which you have conducted yourself this season, especially the weeks where you lead the comp, are a shining example to everyone! I truly mean that. I can't imagine anyone being as generous, open and forthright as you have been these past Rounds. Truly played in the spirit of the game, and more than upheld the spirit of the site.
We are proud to count you amongst our notable members.

Congrats Diabolical on an incredible performance, can we see back to back to back aha and Banker a great job to finish 3rd. Geez who would have thought a podium finish in the SCS group required 4th place wow we've had a great season and lets back it up with an AFL win

Back to back is unbelievable! Congrats! Big congrats to the Banker as well who was awesome all season. Tough final round.

I ended up in 378th which I'm pretty happy with!!!! If I bought in Smith instead of Warner a few rounds ago as my big move I would've been 52nd!!! Ah well. It's a fine line in this game!! Feel like I made so many wrong decisions but still finished in the top 500 so can't complain too much!

Had another great time reading this discussion board. Thanks to all who contributed. See you all again next year!

Jumped up 106 spots in the final round with 963 to my best rank of the season (381st). Bit disappointing from my point of view, given previous years results. Not being anywhere near as prepared as I have in previous seasons, plus making some very uncharacteristic choices throughout the season cost me a decent amount of points and hampered my enjoyment of the season somewhat.

I could go through all my poor decisions, but the main problem was I went against the J.Richo and M.Short show at the beginning of the season which really put me behind the 8 ball from the get go.

I did however make a lot of good decisions that helped keep me in the top 1%, which should be my takeaway.

Congratulations to diabolical and the rest of the SCS coaches that managed to be in the prizes this season. Also, congratulations to any coaches that achieved a PB or simply played their first season (and survived!)

I’m undecided whether I’ll participate in next season’s BBL SC given the hectic and time consuming nature of the schedule, but I am definitely looking forward to getting back into the AFL SC again after a break last season.

The IPL Dream Team comp starts two months today!

We’ve had the #1 league for two years running, as well as Jim’s Dim Sims winning the comp!

Who’s keen?

Give us a “like” if so, and we will keep you in the loop 😎
Who wants to try and stop @Diabolical from extending his streak to five consecutive top ten finishes across the two fantasy cricket formats?

A modest 836 for me in a season which never quite got going. @Diabolical congratulations on a ridiculous feat. Congratulations also to @The Banker on what must have been a tough one to take. Congratulations also to everyone else. Would be here all day with the number of high performers on this site if I had to name them all.

Thank you Rowan. I have appreciated the kind words many times from my peers.

To be part of history is a wonderful moment.

When reality set in that it wasn't me, all I could do was offer support to someone that I admire.

I'm thrilled with the results for the site.

Sounds like you had the same season I had! Final rank of 693 in the end, your start is so crucial in this game because if you get it right you can basically have anyone you want within a few rounds.

Pretty soon you'll need a cash prize on your CV to get an invite to the Champions League :eek:
