Fantasy week 16

Fantasy Cricket time - with just 2 weeks to go - and frankly the scores this week were a tad on the minimal. I could over exaggerate and still be underwhelmed. Its about as exciting as listening to Arsen Wenger talk about slippers.

Anyway - to the scores.

In the MVP for the week was Dellers who was obviously in a league of his own - and in the coat of a dwarf looking at the picture of him getting his green jacket - but anyway - trundled in to top place with his 5 wickets - the unfortunate thing being he wasn't in anyones fantasy team. Brownie pottled in to second with jolly Joe Juke in third

In the season to date league - Rocky scythed through Robs lead - well - he cut it by 2 - which is scythed if you look at it as the lead was cut by a sixth - but thats like sexing up Draiseys underpants. Jimmy Ack saved himself for a match winning innings for the U17s and stayed on his veranda playing with his bazooki for the week - so Rocky has built a massive lead of 2 over him in third.

In the Fantasy league, the winner for the week was Rhys - the furry faced Jones of the first team - with his Lucky Dip team - which implies its better to stick a pin on a bit of paper (well - stick a pin in Bill to get him to pick a random team more like it) than to give it any thought. Harry came in second just ahead of Todd, with Colonel and Cranker making a welcome return to the top of the table.

In the season to date league, both Bill and Jack went for mid table obscurity for the week but cancelled each other out with 17 points, so Bills lead stays at 7 points. Todd increased his lead in third, and closed in on the CMT on second. The CMT is not taking it well - its win at all cost so I'm hiding in the toilet next week just in case

There are only 2 weeks to go - and the Thirds are already shaving their legs and waxing ready for football season as their game is once again off this week. They all fear the Gorton possy obviously - but who wouldnt when his danders up. Anyway - its time for those who haven't already done so to play their jokers. By my reckoning (though I've got to check it) the following haven't as yet played them - so by all means leave it to the last week but let me know
