This afternoon we reveal the results from the final of the Members Cup VI and also find out which two Fantasy managers will compete in the final of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup XII in Gameweek 32.

In the Fantasy Football Scout Cup XII semi-finals Leon Harris defeated konman to set up a final encounter against Numb, who beat Tap in his semi-final by the narrowest of margins.

Numb needed overall rank to see him through after both he and Tap scored 84, thanks largely to their captaincy of Harry Kane. With an overall placing of 27,046, Numb out-ranked Tap’s 29,676.

In contrast, Leon’s victory was more straightforward thanks to his savvy use of the triple captaincy chip for Harry Kane. The Spurs man’s 48-point haul gave him a Gameweek 31 score of 100, which left konman’s very respectable 80-point total for dust.

Despite an overall rank of 2,842, Leon goes into the final as the underdog. After transferring out the injured Vincent Kompany for West Brom man Jonas Olsson in Gameweek 31, he only has one free transfer remaining. He has also used all of his chips, including the second wildcard.

In contrast, Numb, who already has two top-500 finishes in his six previous FPL seasons, has two free transfers, his second wildcard and two Chips (Triple Captain and Bench Boost) at his disposal. With the winner receiving £200 in Amazon vouchers, compared to £100 for the losing finalist, he may well decide to cash in one of his chips to give him an advantage rather than look to boost his overall rank of 27,046, by saving them for the upcoming double Gameweeks.

For Leon, his key differentials include Manchester City’s David Silva, who faces Bournemouth, and Arsenal’s attack-minded full back Hector Bellerin, who takes on Watford. Meanwhile, Numb has Yaya Toure as well as Mesut Ozil to call upon.

In the Members Cup final, the 17,771st-ranked Ola Svanheld defeated community veteran Rasping Drive by 83 points to 76. He earns a £200 Amazon voucher, while Rasping Drive, who is ranked 129,606, takes away a £100 Amazon voucher.

After using his triple captaincy on Harry Kane in the semi-final to good effect, Ola declined to use his remaining bench boost and second wildcard chips to achieve victory in the final. Assists from Gylfi Sigurdsson and Dimitri Payet proved the crucial difference for Ola, as both he and Rasping Drive captained Harry Kane and had the likes of Swansea skipper Ashley Williams cemented in their sides.

Congratulations to both our Members Cup finalists and good luck to Leon and Numb in Gameweek 32’s Fantasy Football Scout Cup XII final.

    Do we reckon Willey will strike with the new ball tomorrow?

    1. Eden Hazardous
      • 11 Years

      Will-he?

      Hey Parm. . Gave this one a miss . Back for IPL I think. Fancy England to take it. not sure about Willey though

    Repost from earlier for the different crowd.

    Latest GW 33 WC draft.

    Robles - Elliot
    Rojo - Gabriel - McAuley - Sakho - Ward
    Sanchez - Ozil - Payet - Barkley - Wijnaldum
    Aguero - Lukaku - Sturridge

    Could get Bolasie and then switch to Wijnaldum in GW 34.

    Thoughts please. 🙂

    1. Every Dog Has Its Day

      You think Gabriel is nailed? I want him so bad. 😆

    2. mad_beer ✅
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I would worry about Gabriel. Too many ifs around him starting. I would deffo get Bolasie.

    3. Acquafresca
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      That back line is abysmal. Also, Gabriel might not play every game.

    • 12 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    The only trouble with having a Rojo or a Gabriel is the risk of rotation in GW35, NOT GW34.

    In GW34, they'd be decent SGW players if the only play one.

    In GW35, we probably won't have a bench - so if they're benched, that's nil points.

    😕

    2. Jimmers

      • 15 Years

      Rojo has a blank in 35 anyway?

    3. TheBroker
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Rojo and Man U dont even play in 35 so yeah no risk of rotation 🙂

            Rashford should start against Villa then with a Rooney cameo

              LvG's normal rules don't apply to Rooney

        • Koflok
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Okay so I'm still sticking with this lot.

          Robles - Elliot
          Gabriel - Bellerin - Rojo - Sakho - Fuchs
          Ozil - Payet - Coutinho - Mahrez - Bolasie
          Kun - Kane - Kaku

          Bolasie to someone in GW 34, considering WHM mid or Wijnaldum.
          Kane til GW 34 before switching to Sturridge (c) or Martial. Keeping him an option too.

          Other than Gabril & Rojo, which I'm more than happy to take the risk even as a SGW player,
          any other comments?

              Darlow* is my second keeper.

              First RMT with Darlow?

              wait Darlow being 0.1 cheaper than Elliot means I can afford Bolasie over Antonio for GW33

              I'm cursed I tell you 😆

              Oh crap, it was interesting because of WCs at one hand that Elliot is out, but then I realized that I wanted to play Elliot next GW.
