erroltips winners board + fantasy league: round 16
July 1st, 2009Round 16 already!? Really? Time flies when you’re having fun! Unless you’re a Roosters fan, in which case I imagine time goes pretty slowly when you’re watching your team make their way to the bottom of the ladder. SORRY SASSY. BUT IT’S TRUE RIGHT?
This week we’re going for the double-headed news update again, because things that come in pairs are awesome. Like boobs, or the Morris twins.

ERROLTIPS WINNERS BOARD
We haven’t updated you all on our tipping leaderboard for a little while, and it appears that during the break things have actually shifted a bit. There is…wait for it…ONLY ONE DIRTY QUEENSLANDER IN THE TOP 4! Some terrible rounds have bumped Bec, Bree and Baz right outta there (I mean, sorry to hear that guys *shifty*).
Unfortunately at this stage I have no idea who our leader actually is. I think it might be Pete ‘hatecushion’ Murrell’s brother though. Just quietly I think I’d rather one of our regular QLDers to be topping the ladder.
1. Stendec
2. southsydneyrussellcrowes
3. Spinner Howland of Jacksonville Axemen fame
4. Vitlin
As far as Errol HQ tipping goes, Kizzy and I are now sitting on top of each other (tee hee) at positions 14 and 15, Sassy is almost cracking the Top 20 at 25 (and that’s a pretty good effort considering she forgot to put her tips in at least twice), and Marlo (also this week’s winner) has almost made the Top 10 at number 11.
FANTASY LEAGUE
So we still had two byes this week but our teams weren’t looking quite as dire as the week before. Yay for not having many Sea Eagles or Panthers. Speaking of…Wade Graham if you’re reading this and wondering why you aren’t in EITHER of our teams, well it’s because we just can’t fit you anywhere! I’d make a rude joke here but you’re too young. Ask me next year.
The Oh Errol Wildcats

Break out the champagne bitches! The Wildcats have had their best week ever with a whopping 1054 points. Highest score in the league as well! CHAMPIONS! We knew they had it in em.
The Wildcats lineup was so good we didn’t even have to bring in any new recruits this week. Our best performer was Nathan ‘Hindy’ Hindmarsh who gave us a massive 114 points. 114!! It’s a shame we didn’t make him captain and score double, but actual Wildcats captain Benny Creagh did pretty well himself with 78. ALL THE WAY WITH BENNY CREAGH!
But our real shining star is DanDan Mortimer who once again had a stellar week in first-grade AND for the Wildcats. 67 points yaaaay! He really was worth our outrage at his non-inclusion in the fantasy player selection/Sassy’s trip down to the Tele.

The Hottie McHotHots

Not a great week for the Hotties. 751 points. WHAT WENT WRONG BOYS? We were only missing one player, Matt Ballin – well two players if you count his arse as it’s own person, which I think we should – and all our usual greats such as Tiny Dancer Soward, Hot Bitch Coops and T.Camps were there. Yet not even over 800 points? I am baffled. BAFFLED.
In happier news, Round 14 addition Kevin Gordon is clearly settling in nicely with the Hotties with 64 points, which was also the second highest score in the team. GO KEVVY GO! Personally I think the Tele should change the points system to include an extra 5 every time Kevin smiles. I should email them.

But aside from their less than perfect score, we’re pretty god damn proud of the Hotties. As predicted last week, our gorgeous boys DID beat their opponents The Special Kids. SUCK IT PETE *forks*
And I’m sure next week we’ll be saying the same thing next round when the Wildcats beat him. LET’S MAKE IT TWO IN A ROW BOYS!
SUCK IT PETE
best victory ever
omg kevin gordon…he is the most adorable little monotreme in the whole world.
thank you thank you – name up in pixels (again)
for the record I have only forgotten to put in my tips two and a half times. (one time I remembered to put them in on sunday).
I JUST GET DISTRACTED.
I’m just glad that even though hindy is persistently overlooked for origin, at least he gets to shine in the wildcats. WE LOVE YOU HINDY.
As a Roosters fan, I can’t wait for this season to be over!
4th wosaaaaaaaaaaa
woooo I won again. I hope I win the whole comp so I win the glorious prize that would essentially be a date with myself and you guys.
SO ANNOYED AT MY COMPUTER/DAILYTELEGRAPH, though. I logged in and couldn’t swap any players…everytime I pressed the s button it wouldn’t let me?!?!?! So I was left with a team from origin week which meant I had no star players, no Monas. BUT I did have Bronson Harrison who got an amazing 101 point.
meh, Im never going to win a round of fantasy. The rangas did this week though. They’re still rangas, so it doesn’t quite balance.
I forgot to tip again this weekend OH COME ON
