Top 7? Geez that's the biggest miracle since the Gumbies didn't go out in straight sets!!!View attachment 1571426
Season Highlights:
- Dragged out a game so long that the space-time continuum ripped apart and revealed the results in the ladder thread before the game was done
- Managed to get 3 penalties before the first game was played and ended up captaining his team to negative points at the end of Round 1

vs Let's start with a little bit of humour: A man is walking along the beach one day, when he looks down and sees a partially buried lamp in the sand. He picks it up and gives it a bit of a rub.

Phoenix v bye The Phoenix wouldn’t want to take the bye lightly, after falling to the Demons last week. The bye is unbeaten so far this season, so the Phoenix will need to be on their guard. The bye players are unlikely to feature in any of the awards at the end of the season. For example...www.bigfooty.com
Discussion - Post bye blues
We now have a large sample size of how teams have fared AFTER having their bye. As you can see below, it was good for those teams that had the bye at the start of the season, but bloody ordinary for teams in the second half of the season. What will this mean for the Swamprats this week, and the...Official Match Thread - S34 Second Preliminary Final - Baghdad Bombers v East Side Phoenix at Abdu Prison
S34 Second Preliminary Final Baghdad Bombers v East Side Phoenix at Abdu Prison The story so far The Bombers finished the minor round in second spot, and then came from 5 goals behind in the third quarter to pip the Gumbies by a point in one of THE great qualifying finals. They’ve been a bit...
Coming in 7th spot is a player you see growing in credibility season after season - long time Swamprats captain philreich. While posters go to the moon and then crash down to zero, phil is like an S&P500 index fund. Growth will be steady and slow, but over time you know what you're going to get and season after season you see reliable returns.
Since breaking into the top 20 in Season 29, he's stayed up there ever since and he's now followed up a top 10 finish last season with his highest placing ever.

Yet another season goes by, phil has kept on adding to the league with his efforts in diligently posting the matches on Sunday, writing match thread OPs, and showing up and leading from the front in match threads engaging teammates and opposition alike.
Phil is the quintessential 'good guy' of the league, able to humour any audience with his classic dad jokes, chat about sports and life, able to switch seamlessly between Qooty to casual chat whichever direction the thread goes. He also doesn't mind keeping people in suspense while posting a close game.
While the season began with 3 squad/team sheet errors and his team ended up on negative points, it's all positive for phil in Season 34. Well done on another strong season!
