  • Only a couple of weeks to go and all the interest is in the minor placings. There are six players trying to squeeze into two spots, and all six have very good Hof/spoon ratios.

  • Chogobad looks to have first place locked up, despite being one of the few that did NOT score a HoF.

  • Chogobad can start celebrating, as his lead is unassailable. Second place could be a tight tussle, though, with N-Bomb and paper_aero locked together. paper_aero has the better margin (just!). If these two should fail, gtho and Sypher may come into contention.

  • There were six HoF Awards this week, including the three leaders. The sole spooner was daaanieeel. There are still five players that have not scored a spoon this comp; a rather unusual happening.

    I'm happy to take it now as nothing is unassailable (The Mighty Hawks showed that on the weekend!)

  • It is now official-Chogobad is the AFL Premiership winner for 2012, and just to rub it in, he picked up a HoF award in the last round!

  • Second place had to be decided by tiebreak, as paper_aero overlooked tipping the last game of the round. However, his HoF/spoon count of 9/0 was just enough to pip N-Bomb's 8/1.

  • There were six more HoF's this week, same as last week, but most did not make any impact on placings.

  • Congrats to Chogodad, paper_aero and N-Bomb, and hope to see everyone next year!

    Thanks guys, great comp and thanks to ozzz2002 for all the effort you go to in running the comp, massive task.

    Hopefully the Finals are a cracker and that the Hawks can finish off a great year.

    And thanks ozfei, I wouldn't have known about this comp if you hadn't have posted on the team boards last year.

    Great fun! Well done chogobad! Next year when the Tigers dominate and the Hawks tank, then our respective positions will be reversed (in my dreams). Thanks VERY much ozzz2002 for all your work in putting this together.

    not sure about the tank however I reckon the tigers are very close to 'clicking' and when they do they'll zoom up the ladder. Just got to do a little better in the close ones under pressure and that comes with experience, which the players are getting.
