Ayo the sign is real simple, B.

Well nerds it seems as if everyone else are finishing their threads so it would be remiss of me to leave this one hanging much longer.

We'll start the wrap up with the final team free kick rankings, along with the awarding of the Silver Whistle. Of course this had been decided a while back, but let's see how it finished.



The Old Boys had this in the bag for ages. They've led the ladder since round 6, had the most overall frees for (even though they also conceded the fifth most frees) and received the most free kicks at their home ground. They also received the most free kicks in a defeat, meaning that the love that qumpires gave them did not translate to qooty success.

This was in fact a trend in season 38, as the ladder variation of 6 is by far the highest since the Free Kick count has been run. The OOBs (ladder variation of 7), the Swamprats (10) & Wonders (7) all failed to capitalise on free kick dominance, while the Dragons (9), Warriors (10) & the premiership winning Hawks (8) all made at least a preliminary final despite obvious qumpire bias against them. The Hawks conceded the equal most frees along with the Furies (although they received the third most), while the Demons (who were the other team to make a prelim) conceded the third most.

The Swamprats came in second, having the most positive free kick differential of all teams while the Royals finished third, who had the second most positive free kick differential. On the other end of the table it was the Dragons who took out the wooden spoon. They received the fewest frees for and had the second most negative FK differentlal. After winning the previous two Silver Whistles, it was Coney Island who came crashing back to Earth finishing second last with the most worst FK differential, the worst home ground advantage and the second worst percentage. It was only a late season show of sympathy from the qumpires that led the Bombers to finish as high as ninth who finished with the worst percentage, the second worst FK differential and by far the worst record in defeats meaning that the qumpires absolutely did the Babylonians dirty. And as for the rest of the teams, well they ended up in mid-table purgatory.

Anyhoo, to the victors go the spoils and in this instance that means the Silver Whistle. So mazel tov to Tigerturbulance and the Old Boys for taking out the Silver Whistle for season 38! Here's your miniature novelty trophy.

As a new club we are pleased to win anything, so this silver whistle will go straight into the Spotswood Trophy Room and fit nicely between the S35 and S37 Priemership Cups.

Now for the individual awards, beginning with the Little Spoon for the player to have received the most free kicks for season 38. OOB cephalopod Braklet was making a late charge at the title, only three frees for behind long-time leader cats_09 from the Gumbies. Braklet however chose this week to visit Qrispy Qreme, and instead of bribing the qumpires with the donuts he picked up he went at kept them for himself. And with none of the other frontrunners doing anything remarkable, the Little Spoon makes its way to the House of Gumby for the first time since StFly took it out in season 32.

Here's the final results:

​

In equal 10th were Dragon Drizzy and Furie Shueygod on 47 frees for, Royal Crimson Azure was ninth on 48, two-time winner Millky95 from the Bears was eighth on 49, Frothies Mcveigh and Pie 4 Life were tied in sixth place on 51 each, fitzroybowiedog and PhenomenalV1 were tied in fourth place on 52, moginie joined Braklet as joint runners up on 56. But the winner of the Little Whistle in season 38 is cats_09 on a massive 61 frees for! Congrats cats, here's your miniature novelty trophy!

​

Now to the Big Spoon, the award given to the player who conceded the most free kicks. The person who conceded the most had a five kick gap over the next best (or worst) player, however there is a clause in the rules which prevents said person from receiving individual gongs in this competition. Quite the shame, as I... I mean they would have had two Big Spoons and one Little Spoon, but that's the way the crumble cookies. So here's the top 10:

In equal eighth place on 23 frees against are PhenomenalV1 (making the top 10 in both Spoon counts) and the Dragon duo of Ljp86 & Pickitt. In equal sixth one kick ahead are Demon rookie p4p1 and Hawk veteran SM, while Wonder Giant YoYo was fifth on 25 and Furie co-boss omgfridge finished in fourth place on 26.

Another Hawk in Loonerty (who won the inaugural Little Spoon in season 29) conceded two frees in round 18 to finish on 27. This leaves OOB empress Mrs Turbo remaining. She could only manage one qumpire indiscretion in the final round of season 38, but that was enough to be level with Loons in second place and, thanks to the previously disclosed rule, means that for the third season we have joint winners of the Big Spoon!

​

Congrats to you both, here are your miniature novelty trophies.

​

The end of season summaries and such and such will follow forthwith.
