Fantasy cricket league

Its obviously been a monumental day, and theres been a lot of emotion leading up to this point. I know its been difficult for many of you waiting for today, and I know very many of you will be disappointed in the outcome. Its been difficult to predict, and I know for many its a question of the foreigners coming over here taking all our wickets (Neels) - whereas for some its about the shape and size of your bananas (Jon Dean) but after a tough week I can finally reveal the scores in this weeks fantasy cricket.

The MVP for week with his maiden Hoddy century was the Jester from Leicester - Ross Clarke. He may speak funnily but he can't half bat. He faced stiff (well - more cuddly) competition from Rob Walters in second

In the season to date MVP league, Tommy Fryers with his twirly fingers and flashing blade sits on top of the table by a couple of points. Mr Robert Walters has crept up menacingly over the weeks in to second place ahead of a whole set of Sturdys (not sure what the term is for a group of Sturdys - but a Clud of Sturdys sounds interesting).

In the fantasy league, the older half of the aforementioned Clud came out first with Adam topping the table with an awesome 48 points; 4 ahead of the nearest thing Hoddy has to Barney the Dinosaur - Josh Gorton in second.

Now I know there is great uncertainty coming in to this weekend now the results are known. We need to unite around the leaders (Tom and Bill) and believe your scores will be better next week. What happens from here no one knows but I am pleased to say you can still vote for a brighter future with transfers possible until tomorrow. If you strongly believe that this is your weekend, and want to take control over your own destiny then you can always play your joker as well.
