Busdeep Premier League 20/21

Wow, guys, the inaugural KWFC Fantasy Premier League (FPL) was awesome, which I'm sure has surpassed any expectations we might have at the start of the season.

This is a recap of our FPL 20/21 season with some stats and highlights. Hope you enjoy reading this.

Down to the Wire

The season was filled with nothing but excitement and drama. 

As this was the first time most of us played FPL, some got off to a slow start (in terms of points-scoring), while some went straight into the fifth gear. JiSharks FC went trigger happy by using his Triple Captain on Aubameyang on the first gameweek (GW), only to find out that it can be used once. Lucky for him, Auba scored once. 

MrMauriceFC and POYIPOLOMIIII!!! were off to a flying start by registering the first triple-digit finish in GW 2. Meanwhile, Pasir Salak and Prince g were slightly sluggish as they ended September 2020 bottom in the league. 

By GW 7, Chok9U and POYIPOLOMIIII!!! each had three T2 finishes - earning Mai (Lord Horrace) the "current FPL champ" title. VARginas FC had his "cucaracha" days which outlasted the rest of us for eight GWs only to get his first B2 finish in GW 9.

Speaking of last, No Kane No Gain was off to the slowest start of the lot with the most B2 finishes by GW 10. Much to his relief, his first T2 finish came only in GW 11. Little did we know, it was only the start of his meteoric rise.

By GW 25, Chok9U, Pasir Salak and MrMauriceFC were chalking up T2 finishes and standing high up in the points ladder. While on the opposite end, DizzyMissLizzy certainly lived up to its name with a dizzying ten B2 finishes and the least T2 finishes, closely followed by POYIPOLOMIIII!!! with a string of B2 finishes. 

It was quite evident that Chok9U was the outright ladder leader with the most T2 finishes, where the rest of us were resigned to fighting for the second position. 

But it was not to be as the final ten GWs of the season were off the charts. Dark horses, No Kane No Gain and Prince g, racked up five T2 finishes each and were poised to finish the season top of the league, barring any slip-ups from Chok9U and MrMauriceFC. JiSharks FC was also lurking around the edges with a string of consistent results only to falter towards the end.

It was down to the wire up in the final GW of the season where MrMauriceFC (then top) felt the heat from No Kane No Gain and Prince g with less than 10 points separating the top 2. Meanwhile, there was also strong competition from the bottom feeders POYIPOLOMIIII!!!, DizzyMissLizzy and VARginas FC with a desire to not finish in the relegation zone.

Throughout the 90 minutes of the final game, the ladder was changing by the minutes. Strong performances by JiSharks FC and No Kane No Gain's players meant that by the 80th minute, MrMauriceFC has conceded the top spot to either of them. Meanwhile, POYIPOLOMIIII!!! had a strong showing thanks to his secret weapon, "bench boost". 

In the end, there was no stopping No Kane No Gain from claiming the top spot with 2303 points, followed by JiSharks FC, who was nine points adrift in second place. Chok9U rebounded in the final week to remain ahead of MrMauriceFC, while Prince g's efforts ended in vain by finishing fifth. POYIPOLOMIIII!!!'s hattrick of T2 finishes in the final GWs meant that he leapfrog both DizzyMissLizzy and VARginas FC to finish in the mid-table.

More Stats Highlights - Individual and Workouts

Throughout the season, there has been nothing short of interesting workouts. Here, we revisit some of them while highlighting some interesting stats. 😉

But first, let me take a selfie.

No Kane No Gain 

Joint top most three digits point finish (x4). Joint top most T2 finish (x11).

Famously said, "no Kane, no gain" which was evident in his first ten GWs. 

Made an astonishing 60 transfers - most transfers made in our league. This means he has -4 or -8 in almost every GW. However, this strategy and gamble paid off handsomely for our KWFC captain.

Ballerina ke?

JiSharks FC 

Consistent throughout the season with the least B2 finishes (x6). A string of bad decisions mid-season and towards the end of the season meant that finishing top was difficult. 

The sit-up workout killed him. He was in pain for at least five days after the workout. 

Putehhh

Chok9U

He was literally choking us out of competition. Mr Cheat Code was in a fantasy league on his own until reality hit him with COVID, which unfortunately saw him out of the competition for a month. This provided the rest with an opportunity to taste glory.

Joint top most T2 finish (x11)

Hard to juggle woman/dogs/balls at the same time la..

MrMauriceFC

Joint top most three digits point finish (x4). Most points scored in one GW - 127 points.

Second least B2 finish (x7). 

Almost claimed the top spot only to fall in the final two GWs. 

Guy with the cutest workout shorts 

Prince g

After overcoming his own heaty patches aka COVID19, Mr Results! late peak almost saw him finishing top. 

Highly questionable workout routines, but they work for him. So who's to say it's weird.

Kneepad practice?

POYIPOLOMIIII!!!

All hail "Lord Horrace"! While he peaked early in the season, he fell off the pecking order mid-season onwards due to suspected heatiness.

However, a strong desire of not wanting to finish bottom inspired a late resurgence with a hattrick of T2 finishes and no B2 finish in the last ten GWs. All hail "Lord Horrace"!

Oh a girl is coming, better workout now. 

DizzyMissLizzy

Unfortunate to claim the most B2 finish (x11) and the least T2 finish (x4).

Poor decisions to make unnecessary extra transfers cost dearly and contributed to a streak of B2 finishes.

However, the punishment workouts came good as he completed a 10km run below 1 hour, his PB. It's definitely the workouts that made him stronger and faster.

The most cheng face while exercising

VARginas FC

A relatively strong start to the season and was quite consistent throughout. 

A couple of 'Oh I forgot to set my team' incidents cost him dearly. Unfortunate to finish one point behind DizzyMissLizzy in overall points scored. 

Then again, there's really not much difference between the two old vege bros.

I must plan my revenge. Jifai you watch out.

Pasir Salak

Joint top most T2 finish (x11). Strong and consistent results throughout the season for Pasir Salak.

Unfortunate to drop out of the race at the end of the season because family comes first (respect).

Funnily, he managed to finish T2 in some GWs despite not setting his team. Luck or pure genius? It's definitely the latter. 

Special shoutout to Kev. Although he did not join us, he did join in tagging on some of us and our workouts. Love you, Kev.

More than a Football Team

FPL has somewhat brought us back closer with one another. As we grew older, we all have our own priorities in life. Many of us also live in other countries, which may have contributed to us not being as close as before.

How did it make us closer?

For the last 38 GWs, FPL has altered many of our daily routines. Before GW deadlines, we would privately message each other to ask for tips and advice, etc. After each GW, there were banters that ensued.

For some (mainly the United fans), we were awake at odd hours to watch United matches - hoping that Bruno will do his magic and earn us thousands of points.

Oh FPL. Onto the next season.

Home is...

where the heart is... back when hairstyles didn't matter, when t-shirts were less branded and when handshakes and embraces were genuine... back when life was a little bit more simple and real.. I miss you bunch of jolly fcks!

When life gives you lemons,

you make lemonade.

KWFC-KL OUT!

Hippopotamus!

Hippo fun facts

1. Hippos are responsible for more deaths, in Africa, than any other wild animal.

2. Hippos measure about 5 feet tall and about 12 feet long, with a mouth that measures two feet across. With this much weight you'd think a hippo would be slow but they can easily outrun humans.

3. Males are sexually mature at 6-13 years old, females at 7-15 years. If a new male takes the group, chasing away the former dominant male, he will kill all the young of the group, so that the females turn into heat and mate with him.


4. The main enemies of the hippo are crocodiles, lions and hyenas. A hippo will usually give a warning of either yawning, lunging, or dung-showering. The hippo will often turn backside to an enemy and let dung fly. This is done to show confrontation or even superiority.

Yeap. We've made it.

Inspirations.

Broadway- Kingdoms

For those of you who still have been keeping up with the post hardcore rock scene, there have been a few good albums released this year. Dance Gavin Dance - Happiness was a big improvement from their previous album. Thursday- Common Existence was really goood. Saosin's new album is honestly pretty shit. (Seriously they're getting worse and worse). Taking Back Sunday's new album's pretty mediocre etc.

But the album that has to be probably the best album on 2009 in the post hardcore scene has to be BROADWAY-KINGDOMS. These guys are as technical as Dance Gavin Dance, as melodic with catchy guitar riffs like emarosa and have brilliant break down of songs like Chiodos. I'm no music critique but Broadway was the sound that the scene really needed. They are really fucking amazing.

If you feel you've lost your feel for rock lately, give these guys a listen. They're pretty unbelievably brilliant. Check out their video (Broadway- The same thing we do everynight, pinky)

Go, go, go!!

Welcome Abroad

KWFC meet up in September?

To the Adelaide boys,

I have a plan for us in September !! I'll most probably be flying down to Adelaide somewhere in late September. After hanging around Adelaide for maybe 3-4 days, i'm planning to rent a car and drive all four of you boys to Melbourne maybe for the weekend. In the time we're in Melbourne, we can probably go to 7s ( i know ah mai and sam will love to go) or we can plan a maybe 3 day 2 night trip just outside of Melbourne. Mornington again maybe ? I'm open to suggestions but for now that's the plan. So all i'm asking is to leave one weekend free so that all the Ke Weis who are overseas can meet up and spend time together, which includes you Kev. =D

So KWFC roadtrip/ partying/ chill out time together in Sept ? On? Let me know. Until then, stay healthy and stop freaking buying scooters !!!

NO PORK!! NO PORK!! i said NO PORK!!

g'dayyy mate,

waddup fellow kwfc and readers...greetings from adelaide! hope yall are doing fine and healthy. especially those Melbourne ppl (you should know why i would say that)

anyways regarding my blog post title, its a little dilemma that i'm currently going through now.

before i go into what the dilemma is, just a little background story for your info. i got a place to stay. its just right at the back of my Uni and its a nice place to stay in. its a 2 rooms apartment. and my other house mate is a M.A.L.A.Y dude (something to take note at) from Malaysia and also a taman tun kiaa. he stays in Kajai. and he is those kinda 'modern' malay as he drinks alcohol and all. but the only thing is that he doesnt eat Pork. which is fine with me cos obviously i know and respect their views on eating pork.

so we went groceries shopping 3 days back. while getting the stuffs, i was looking at luncheon meat. so i asked him la if it was ok for me to cook pork at home. and he replied "sure NO PROBLEM just as long as i use different frying pan and utensils and plate." so okla cool as he has no problem with it, i bought quite a few tins of luncheon meat and pork stew. haha. and oh btw, i also have to store those tins in a separate drawer from the other foods. haha.

ok...so here comes the dilemma. yesterday afternoon he smsed me saying this.

"Dude. there's something i wanna tell u. not to make u to feel offended or anything but i dont think i'll be comfortable if u cook pork in the hse. i experienced it at my fren's place last niite when she was cooking pork at home. and i got really dizzy with the smell. plus i hope u can respect me as a muslim cos something regarding to it is a biggest sin. i know u already bought the stocks but for that 1 maybe u can bring it to your fren;s hse and cook it. sorry man"

so yeaa...just managed to talk to him bout it regarding this matter. i said that i respect his decision and views on the whole pork thing and i will definitely not cook pork in front of him. then i asked him whether it was ok if i cook it when he isnt home. he was quite hesitant and reluctant to say that he's ok with it cos he really wasnt comfortable with the whole cooking pork at home issue. and he also said that it was his first time smelling pork back in his frens place that night and he dint know he would have such big reaction to it like getting dinnnnnnnnnnnnnnzzzz and all. hahaha. but then i said that i am also paying for rent and i have the right to cook it just as long as he's not around and also i will air and ventilate it out la. then after that he was like okkkkkkkkkkkkkk with it 'for now'. ahah

so just for fun, what would you say to some1 like that if you were me. i really would like to hear your responses and advise as well. thanks

take care and God Bless

2 KWFC Members Have Just Left!!

This year KWFC has really parted ways. With Jinn and Mai already leaving early on this year. Well, the remainder of us did meet up, for futsal, for dinner and lunch. so first of all, I would wanna say "WE PROOFED YOU WRONG JINN!". Of course it'll never be the same, cause 4 of you guys have already left, but we did have our fair share of fun, and we got to know each other a little better. The bunch of us left weren't really close excluding me and Justin. But Its safe to say I've grown a little closer to Shaun, Jeff and Sam. I would especially say I've grown very close to Shaun and Sam, all our study sessions really worked and paid off!! All of us did pretty well and on top of that I had a good time studying out with you two. As for Jeff thanks for coming to most of the futsal sessions that I've invited you for. Sorry we couldn't go to Tenji as you wanted to so badly , but you la had to make one more trip !!

All in all, highly doubt you're gonna see me agu, stick and ah mah out. hahaha. Its quite true. But none the less, me and ah mah will try keep the kwfc spirit on the court at the very least.

All the best to SAM and JEFF. Have a good time there, and I'll most likely see you guys next July when I come down for another trip, and I hope to see the rest of you this coming December.

The Return of Gin.

Yes. Gin is back.

Update from Melbourne !

This is a long overdue post. I'm sorry but this is a rough update that the Adelaide boys (Jinn and Mai) have arrived safely in Melbourne and the KWFC branch of Melbourne have welcomed them with the openest of arms.

They've been here for the best part of 3 weeks and we've enjoyed their company so much. It's like family away from family if you know what i mean. =D The following are a few pictures of us spending our first winter together in a foreign country. Jinn will give the long update if he manages to get Chelsea to win the Premiership and if LAVESSI !!!! signs for Man Utd.

Check out our number 1's body. Saucccyyyyyyyy

KWFC's favourite gf and now one of our closest friends. KHU VIN VIN !

Peggy Lost Her Wings

This is just a brief summary of what happened to my beloved scooter.

Extracted from uniwhites.com


Post subject: I FOUND IT!!

Posted: Mon Jun 15, 2009 1:34 pm


Okay.. for those who didn't know. I lost my faithful steed on Saturday.

I woke up nice and early on Saturday morning. Ate a good breakfast, took an even better dump, put on my uniwhite gear, imagined myself scoring a goal, did my celebration dance, took my helmet and went outside only to find my scooter......... gone.

Was pretty devastated. I was not sure if I could and should ring 000 cos I didn't want the police to go all s.w.a.t. team on me for a scooter, although that would have been great, so I went off.

I was gonna make a police report but I decided to go to for the Unley game 1st. (Im sure most of yall would have done the same) So I took the damn bus which was overcrowded and realised that I only had a 50. The bus driver gave me a long stare before telling me he didn't have change and gave me 24 two dollar coins. I was pretty bummed at that time and thought I could take my coins a try my luck at pokies and WIN ANOTHER SCOOTER!

Snapped back to reality and went to the changing room and told the guys about what happened. Wez was like, "..yeah, I heard the Unley guys talking and overheard that one of them stole a scooter last night. You gotta get your revenge on the field!"

And I was like.. Unley Bastards!

So I geared up and got ready to take on the guys who stole my scooter. Unfortunately, Unley got away with my scooter and the game.

Nathan took me to the Hindley police station before making sure Dan Greatz hobbled off all right to his parents car. (He took a knock in the A's)

After Nathan dropped me off, I walked around the neighbourhood to check if any of my neighbours conveniently got a new scooter. I was praying really hard and had a sudden prompting to walk down Harvey St, a street couple of blocks away from my place.

And when I got there, waddaya know.... IT'S MY SCOOTER! I tried starting it but it wouldn't until I realised the front was pried open and wires were everywhere. I tried wiring it back but it was too dark to see anything. It was about 7 at that time. So I came to a conclusion that the guy ran away with my scooter, pried open the front, tried to hot wire it but couldn't see anything and realised he had damage the scooter already and couldn't sell it.

Stupid Unley Bastard!

The police came over and was all CSI like, dusting for finger prints and stuff. Before the cop the left, he pulled a John Connor face and gave me the "we'll call you" pat on the back before leaving the crime scene.

So yeah, my scooter can't start, the front is all ripped, I have to pay for repairs and I have to take public transport.


Man I hate Unley!
