Fudge this game, I hate this shark! Losing by 70 points it's over. May as well not play next week #ThrowsToys
2016 #YFDynasty League (NFL)
Pretty hard bridge for you to climb and I'm obviously happy with my team this week.
Don't necessarily think it is over though - the bench points shows you have more depth than me and, unlike last year, a number of teams are already locked in for their playoff spots which could mean a number of stars being rested. My team for week 17 is likely to be very patchwork.
Yeah so annoyed with the points I've left on the bench. Could have made it much closer and given me a better shot next week. Think it's a bridge to far now
The problem is that Bell is likely to be rested. Which makes overcoming the deficit a lot harder.
Made up some points but not enough and finish as the bridesmaid.
Congratulations to the Billikids on winning this seasons YF Dyntasy
well played Linley - I'd just like to point out, had the Yakcalls behaved like our other 2 matchups (I blame Bell) and not smashed me in week1 of the first round playoffs I'd have beaten the Billikids in the finals 260 to 251.6... Happy with 3rd in my first season, especially how things were tracking at the midpoint.
Bring on the Draft...!
Cheers, very happy to pick up the victory after losing to Jono last year. Have to admit being nervous this morning as I saw Matt was cutting into that first week lead.
Anyway, Dynasty never rests so if anyone is after any of my players, flick me a message.
Deeks - will let you know who I'm planning to drop so you can scrounge some more of more former players.
Ahhhhh - the bants...

You won in YF dynasty and in payslaves too. Great effort.

Thanks - was very surprised with that after being down by 50ish after the first week. Think Si might have taken his eye off the boil a bit and not put a full team up, so got lucky there.
Oh yeah - the David Johnson injury helped me plenty as well....
I'm working on season wrap-up stuff, but here is the bit I need help with....Trades, Standiungs & therefore draft order...
Here is the final standings I have...
So the bottom 8 are just reversed for order, the top 4 are Semi Final losers by reverse regular season standings: so Seanucks & Paul, then Final Loser Yakcalls & Billikids as Champion picks 12th.
THen there is trades, I have this list for 2016...
And with those as the trades we have seen here is the full draft order....
Can everyone please check my details on that please :D

WHAT!!!! You greedy bastard, why couldn't you let me win and just kept Payslaves to yourself!

He repeated my double from last season...
I think those picks for me are correct. Glad we won't have a 5th round next season - would just be randomly picking at that point.
I'll tell you what Matt - I'll share the trophy with you if you give me your first or second round pick in the upcoming draft. Oh wait......
Fairies now have my third and fourth round picks in the Prosise trade.
News
First of several posts today hopefully
Corey Coleman (WR, CLE, USOS) is reported to have been involved in an incident in the lobby of his appartment building...his Agent denies his involvement (PS. The first I heard of it was the denial from the agent)
Jeremy Hill (RB, CIN, NP) reports suggesting he will be a "back-up" & goal-line back next season, given his average YPC it has always been a factor of getting a lot of touches, and the goalline work, but the removal of touches would hurt, question is whether that means Bernard will get the touches or if they will attempt to sign pending free agent Rex Burkhead to an extension.
Tyrod Taylor (QB, BUF, NUCK) has undergone a surgery, expected to be out for 6 weeks, this is cutting it fine for the Bills who are expected to cut him, but to do so need him off the injury list, as if cut while injured they'll owe his full salary for at least 2017, probably 2018 too...
Zach Zenner (RB, DET, NUCK) team is reportedly thinking about using him as an every down back going forwards, could be huge going into next season, BUT others will be back then.
Brock Osweiller (QB, HOU, LCAL) had a huge fight with head coach Bill O'Brien during the Week 17 game, if they can't beat the Carrless Raiders this weekend I'd expect BOB to be fired pretty quickly. Interested to see what happens with Brock.
Fairies now have my third and fourth round picks in the Prosise trade.
Added to my 2017 Trades list :D
Looking at responses to possible rule changes I will put these two to an email vote....
Divisions
Option A) 2 Divisions with Random Draw for Divisions - Play own div twice, 3 teams from other Div
Option B) No Divisions, completely random draw - Play All teams once, 2 teams twice.
Flex Position
Option A) Leave as RB/WR
Option B) Change to RB/WR/TE
Will possibly be voting for some awards in the email as well:
MVP (David Johnson, Aaron Rodgers - Which WRs? Jordy, A.Brown, Evans, OBJ)
Rookie of Year (Kinda has to be Zeke right? Dak didn't really play in our fantasy league)
I'm going to try to give weekly news updates during the offseason, and also start working on some Rookie coverage as well (Will open a draft thread at some point)
I eagerly await the news of Bells drug suspension.
I eagerly await the news of Bells drug suspension.
He has a Playoff game first, but after that it'll happen, wait for the news of his visit to Seattle.
You can both GGF.
Also Jono I replied to those rules changes by email that you sent out.
Thanks Matt, got responses from some, awaiting others :D
Player News
Le'Veon Bell (RB, PIT, AY) - Steelers are going to use the franchise tag on Lev Bell (Likely $12m contract for 1yr)
Tyrod Taylor (QB, BUF, NUCK) - Sounds like if Anthony Lynn becomes HC he will keep Taylor, but most other coaches would let him go.
Side note: booking a booth at Four Kings again for Super Owl ?. Let me know if you are interested, can probably fit about 10 people.
It's February 6th which will also be Waitangi Day.

You turning up this time?
You turning up this time?
I did last year...that's a 1 in 2 record :P
hello chaps
been back in NZ for a few weeks, so not really on line at all. Missed the end of the season but noted that I continued my MID TABLE DOMINATION which is the real goal for us all at the start of the season. I have had my own trophy presentation here at home and it was a massive, lavish affair. The trophy now has pride of place in my Yellow Fever Fantasy Football Trophy Room:
Thanks for the season - great fun.
PS I have no strong feelings about the options that were presented, mainly because I cannot remember what they were
Also, anyone want Carson Palmer? Willing to trade for a Moro bar.
Do I get the Moro bar if I take him?
Just so you all know, I am working on the season wrap-up and will post that in this thread, but I will be posting a new thread (For Rookie Draft & for 2017 Season) today as I have some things to start working on there as well.
End of Season Wrap-Up
Well sorry this took a while guys, whole lot of Life happened since the Super Bowl, but the lead up to Free Agency starting later this week seems like a good time for us to review the previous season.
First off Congrats to Rammtallica Billikids on taking out the Title for 2016, our third different winner in 3 seasons which is pretty awesome to see. In m other league it took 7 seasons before we had our first double winner, will be interesting to see if it is shorter in this league.
Lets check out his winning squad for the season (Based on most games played in the position for the season)
QB: Ben Roethlisberger
RB: Todd Gurley & Zeke Elliott
WR: Antonion Brown, Brandin Cooks & Kelvin Benjamin
RB/WR: AJ. Green
TE: Travis Kelce
DST: LA Rams
K: Brandon McManus
This season victory sees the Billikids jump to first in the all-time record club as well, they are the first team to make it to 25 victories over 3 seasons.
More on scoring for the season, the top score by any team in a single week was achieved by the St Albert Seanucks in Week 12 when they managed to stack up 183.4pts, which is the 5th best scoring week of all time.
The lowest score for the week was by the Fairfield Fairies with 51.3pts in Week 17 as they really fell apart in their final hurdle, thought the Calrissians also did badly that week with a mere 52.1pts.
Of all our records the only one that was broken this season was the highest losing score, where this season we managed to have 3 of the top 4 & 5 of the top 10 losing scores of history.
The Awards for 2016
The MVP of this season was quite close in the end of the season, it came down to just a single vote between Aaron Rodgers and David Johnson, the winner was David Johnson of Nialls Paul, he had a great season on both the ground, and with some awesome catches through the air.
Rookie of the Year was completely onesided, I put Elliott up vs "The Field" and of all the results I received there was not a single vote for another contender, so the winner is Ezekiel Elliott of the Rammtallica Billikids.
The Positional Champions are as follows:
Best QB - Aaron Rodgers
Best RB - David Johnson
Best WR - Jordy Nelson
Best TE - Travis Kelce
Nialls Paul came up as the team that was Running up the Score, they managed to compile 2214pts over the season, ending as the only team to average over 130pts per week.
That leads to a Trophies Leaders Table:
Hope you enjoyed this season and look forward to the new one (Bunch of News updates coming)
