Hey all!
Today, Worlds has seen the retirement of one of it's pioneer and finest coaches. My Chumps has stepped down from Cape Town, leaving the list in quite a youthful and promising state. It was approximately this time
5 years ago that My Chumps signed up for Worlds, and his contributions will be missed.
The WXVs says goodbye to a great servant.
However, that means that a spot has opened up for another aspiring coach in the premium game that is WXVs.
Applications will close at
Monday Midnight
Now, attention all aspiring applicants!
WXVs is a fantastic community of quality characters, from the "confident" Holz, the controversial meow, the gif making (and premiership winning) prowess of Levi, the talkative RaisyDaisy, the good guys at PNL, and much more! We have been blessed this year with 18 teams actively participating, which you do find yourself naturally doing anyway, because Worlds is just a fun and addicting place to be a part of. As such, we saw only one occurrence this year of a team forgetting to submit there team on time, and no mid-season departures.
From wicked Awards Nights, Weekly Match Previews, a Proud & Rich History and Controversial Rules and Trade Periods... this is where you fantasy football addicts belong.
But before I go on, ask yourself these questions. Am I active/passion enough to:
1) submit my team every week?
2) respond to votes?
3) trade?
4) Get banterous?!
IF you answered yes to all those questions, and think this is a place you'd love to be a part of, then be sure to apply in this thread, outlining:
1) Any experience. Whether it be at another XVs comp, or the degree of neglect in your real-life to focus in fantasy football :P
2) How you think you'd contribute to the community. For example, would you be keen to make club best & fairests, a fancy team board, engaging in the banter etc. as a lot of our current teams do.
3) What is Cape Town's best XV in your opinion (see team below)? What general trade approach will you employ if you think necessary? Remember, we are still in the middle of the trade period, but don't worry, you still have a bit over a month to go!
4) And tell me how good the Salary Cap is? Hint: You'll wanna say it's awesome.
ANYONE can apply, whether you are relatively new to FF or even a current WXVs coach, but remember when you write your applications, all the Worlds coaches will be voting for you, and will be reading them. So make sure you get in everything you want to say, but be careful of the TLDR glance (too long, didn't read).
As always, if you have any questions, feel free to either PM me or post here :)
Cheers all, and good luck!

Hello all involved in WXVs,
Name: Truthin Ryan
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Team Supported: Collingwood
I am new to FF and a huge footy and Collingwood nut. I actually just discovered FF recently and looking for a way to get into the various comps such as XVs, XVIII's and even a few of the other sports.
If I were to take over the legendary Cape Town Cobra's, I'd build on My Chumps and Memph's hard work. I definitely feel like the young core is there with only 3 players above 25 in the starting XV. Kennedy is a premier player of the comp and will help this youthful team to the next level.
There definitely needs to be some depth built up if we are to challenge Christchurch for the mantle of "Best depth in the comp." However if we are to challenge for a flag by 2020 we'd need to sure up the forward line and pick 7 could potentially be used to secure another young gun forward to team up with 2 meter Peter and Dean Kent. Or we could use it within a trade to get Ryan Bastinac.
Here is what the Best XV look's like currently:
D: B. Smith(24), C. Mills(19), S. Savage(25), M. Dea(24)
M: J. Kennedy(28), D. Prestia(23), L. Hunter(21), M. Blicavs(25)
R: B. Longer(23)
F: T. Hawkins(28), P. Wright(20), D. Kent(22), S. Crameri(28)
I: T. Miller(20), D. Parish(19)
I am very into stats and I used to work for various clubs in the NEAFL behind the scenes. Unfortunately I am not apart of that anymore and the only outlet for my statistical brain is through fantasy sports.
I'd very much appreciate being apart of WXV and I guarantee that you will always know what is on my mind in relation to trades, rules, fluke victories and all else that accompanies the great comp of WXVs.
You know what, I think it's time to throw my hat back in the ring for a WXV coaching position.
Hey all, I'm BB67th, I've been around the forums for many a year now.
A lot of you will know me from the AXV, where I am the coach of the Manila Folders (we made it to the GF in year 1 and have been undertaking a rebuild since), and I was the administrator of the competition in 2014 and, a co-admin in 2015, before stepping down from the role.
I was also the inaugural coach of the Leeds Leeches in the BXV, and was an assistant with the London Royals when Ringo first took over that role.
I love my SuperCoach, and being in the WXV would be a great opportunity to apply that scoring system to a fantasy draft game, and it would be fantastic to be a bigger part of the WXV community. I'm always ready to contribute, and plan to bring back team B&Fs next year, as I have done for the Folders previously.
This is an interesting list, and this would be my current best XV:
DEF: B.Smith, C.Mills, J.Geary, S.Savage
MID: J.P.Kennedy, D.Prestia, L.Hunter, C.Bird
RUC: M.Blicavs
FWD: T.Hawkins, P.Wright, T.Miller, N.Hrovat
INT: D.Parish, D.Kent
There's definitely some strong scoring power across all lines of the field, with some fantastic depth. It may be a matter of trading some of this depth away to target a big name player. A high scoring goal-kicking midfielder wouldn't go astray to complement the two key forwards of Hawkins and Wright.
Thanks for your time everyone, I'd love to be a part of this great competition.
Hey Guys
throwing my hat in the ring yet again
I have been waiting for my ow own WXV team for years gaining experience in other comps like BXV, AXVIII SC, AXVIII DT, i think all the Admins and Coaches in those comps enjoy having me involved i got so excited when i woke up and seen this thread, i'm very reliable submitting teams, usually quick to respond to votes, enjoy trading to fill the teams needs and good at identifying a teams needs and love a bit of banter.
All my teams are respected teams in there competitions in AXVIII SC Anaheim my pride and joy is a flag favourite next year after finishing 3rd this year, Nicaragua came 2nd this year and i have improved the list for another crack next year, Birmingham finished 9th just missing the finals thanks to a draw during the season.
I'm confident in identifying teams needs and trading to fill them but also confident in drafting i know how to put teams through rebuilds and through successful eras.
DEF: B.Smith, C.Mills, M Dea, S.Savage
MID: J.P.Kennedy, D.Prestia, L.Hunter, C.Bird
RUC: M.Blicavs
FWD: T.Hawkins, P.Wright, T.Miller, S.Crameri
INT: D.Parish, D.Kent
There is lots of good young talent to build a team around Mills, Prestia, Blicavs, Hunter, Miller, Parish, Cockatoo, Wright.
Words cant describe how much i want a team in WXV i guess my actions can i have applied for the last handful of teams hoping to try and get one.
Thanks for your time.
I'll vote for whichever coach trades me 2 meter Peter
Could be interested
don't think it's very fair and official joking about this kind of stuff with Wright etc
Disappointed to apply in such circumstances. Chumpy was a great servant to this competition and it is incredibly sad to see him depart. Memph is also a good friend of mine and it's sad to see his new radio gig take over his FF commitments, but life goes on I guess. I hope they both are welcome back to whoever wins the Cape Town gig's coaching panel if they decide to return.
I'm Koop, I'm a hot-headed late-teen who likes trading and banter too much. I have been on FF for 4 1/2 years now in 2 different periods. I went M.I.A in 2014/15 due to family breakup issues and some pretty severe depression, as well as issues with a FF member. As such I don't have the runs on the board quite yet when it comes to sustained forum activity, but I'm in a much better place mentally now than I was even in 2012, so take that for what you will. I have a long and depressing XV's resume listed below.
Current
AXV: Taiwan Dolphins (Senior Coach)
BXV: Hebden Bridge Hedgehogs (Assistant Coach)
plus assistant gigs in both XVIII's comps.
Past
AXV: Kathmandu Eskimos (Inaugural Coach)
BXV: Huddersfield Hawks (Assistant Coach)
BXV: Liverpool Rams (Assistant Coach)
WXV: Seoul Magpies (Assistant Coach)
plus an inaugural coach in both XVIII's comps.
How you think you'd contribute to the community?
In the words of the Essendon marketing department, whatever it takes! Anyone who is also an AXV coach can testify to my level of activity. I love stat-keeping so would be keen to help out with any medal-tallying, stat-grabbing, or anything like that to help improve the comp. I think the AXV, and any other comp can take a huge leaf out of the work that Purp, and ossie before him, does to keep everyone in this comp engaged. Also I love banter, what else do you want? :P
Best XV
DEF: Brodie Smith, Shane Savage, Callum Mills, Luke McDonald
MID: Josh P Kennedy, Lachie Hunter, Dion Prestia, Mark Blicavs
RUC: Billy Longer
FWD: Tom Hawkins, Peter Wright, Stewart Crameri, Dean Kent
UTL: Touk Miller, Craig Bird
EMG: Jarryn Geary, Darcy Parish, Nathan Hrovat
Trading Strategy
With Blicavs, Bird and Miller all extremely unlikely to retain DPP, a playing ruck would be top priority for the new Cobra’s coach. Well I mean, unless they want to ruck Wright all season which is plausible. As is trademark with Memph, the team has a solid young core to build around and besides probably another young defender or two, with sound drafting there is plenty of future excitement while still being competitive in the now. I’d like to continue on with the Cape Town legacy, but I would be open to all offers barring line anchors.
I have applied for several WXV positions in the past, and I would be honoured to join the ranks of the most active and fabled competition on the forum.
Thanks for reading and good luck to all other applicants.
Id like to put my hat in the ring again this year for a coaching position.
Im 21 and im from Tasmania, home of some of the AFL's favorite players in Liam Jones and Colin Garland. Currently in my 3rd year of study. Probably going to fail this year, and FF is the reason why.

this is where you fantasy football addicts belong.
Well im certainly this, im on FF or im sleeping basically, most replies are sent out within the hour and youll never wait longer than 24 hours. Im on FF chat quite often if you want to catch up or talk trades.
I love trading, one of my favorite things about worlds is the unlimited trade movements, which are not in some of the other comps.
Quote from: Purple 77 on September 30, 2016, 04:38:45 PM
1) Any experience. Whether it be at another XVs comp, or the degree of neglect in your real-life to focus in fantasy football :P
I joined this forum this time last year and am the proud coach of...
Hasting Hurricanes (BXV)
Turkish Gazelles (AXV)
And ofcourse i came in late to help Vinny post teams of the Mighty Team Pendles.
And yes, the more teams i have the more neglect my uni degree gets, thats basically how it works :P

Love sharing my unwanted opinion, especially when it comes to trades and id be very active in chat.
Being honest, my team board is going to look like shower, no matter how hard i try as i have no computer skills.
And i can tell you right now, JPK is the winner of the best and fairest.
Quote from: Purple 77 on September 30, 2016, 04:38:45 PM
What is Cape Town's best XV in your opinion (see team below)? What general trade approach will you employ if you think necessary? Remember, we are still in the middle of the trade period, but don't worry, you still have a bit over a month to go!
D: B.Smith, S.Savage, C.Mills, J.Geary
M: JPK (C), D.Prestia, L.Hunter (VC), M.Blicav
R: B.Longer
F: T.hawkins, P.Wright, D.Kent, S.Crameri
U: T.Miller, B.Acres
Emg: D.Parish, C.Bird, L.Mcdonald
A clear weakness in this team would be the lack of playing ruck options and my first aim would be to fix that. Id also look to add another forward to the team.....but that seems to be what everyone is looking for :P I like the youth this team brings and think its a nice team foundation that can really be competitive in the future. I wouldnt be closed to trading JPK to go younger, but it would be for a decent price. And i hate to say it Ele...but i cant see too much of a reason to trade big 2 Meter Peter...would have to be a nice deal :P
VC would be on Prestia when Hunters not playing at Etihad :P
Quote from: Purple 77 on September 30, 2016, 04:38:45 PM
4) And tell me how good the Salary Cap is? Hint: You'll wanna say it's awesome.
I dont think ill go here, seems to controversial :P
TL;DR????
Vote 1 iZander because
- Loves trading
- Active
- Banters
Good job so far all applicants. 8)
Not that I would, but Purp is there still the option for coaches to throw their team back into the ring?

Yep! But I'm not gonna do a re-draft this time around :P
Any Worlds coach can apply for Cape Town, but if they win it, they obviously relinquish their current team

I wish :(
The minute before Tuesday 0:01 is what I meant to say, I got confused :P
Hey guys, you probably haven't heard of me much around here. GoLions is my name, and SuperCoach is my game.
I'll start off by giving a few A's to Purps' initial Q's.
But before I go on, ask yourself these questions. Am I active/passion enough to:
1) submit my team every week? Sure can dooseville
2) respond to votes? Quick as a fox
3) trade? Love trading
4) Get banterous?! Probably my weak point, but I'll see what I can do
In terms of experience, I coach the Bradford Badgers in BXVs. Took over a few years back after the great man himself Whatlez voluntarily stood down as coach, and made the Semis in 2015 and the Prelims this year (if only Barlow, Higgins, Prestia, Libba, and another 2 or 10 players weren't injured). I am also the assistant admin to Ringo in BXVs.
I am an assistant coach in every other fantasy comp on FanFooty. Those teams are:
- Laos (AXVs)
- Croatia (EXVs) #crushed
- New Brooklyn (Americas SC)
- Bolivia (Americas DT)
Oh and also some team called 'Karen' in WXVs, I hear they have great blog.
How would I contribute? Bants all day erryday. Trade talk is always good, as I'm sure a lot of the coaches on here know by now. Have done a Best and Fairest for the Badgers every year I've been in charge. And I wouldn't say I'm on Levi's level, but I have edited a picture or two in Paint, so, you know.
On to Cape Town's Best XV:
DEF: B Smiddy, Savage, Millsy, Geary
MID: Norm Smith Medallist Josh P Kennedy, Hunter, Dion, Blicavs
RUCK: ??? Moonboy for all I know
FWD: Hawkins, Crameri, 2MP, Kent
UTIL: Miller, Blacres
EMG: Dea (D), Parish (M), Longer (R), Honeychurch (F)
As others have said, a very young team with a good core group of players. Really needs a ruck though, as I can't see the Blitz keeping it, and those other ruckmen will struggle to get 22 games between them all year. No player is untradeable (as every player has his price), so will be looking to trade whatever it takes (within reason) to get a solid best 22 ruckman.
Apart from that, F4 would be the other main issue to work on, but not the highest priority. There are some good trading chips in the team (draft picks included), so I'm sure something can be done there.
And, finally, THE CAP. I'll keep it short and sweet; #scrapthecap ;)
Cheers all!

Ripping applications so far gents!
Interesting to read about strategies moving forward. I was banking on Wright earning ruck statues next season to be honest, but we'll see how it plays out.
Great applications guys!

No offense to either of you, but I think you'll find, despite the fact that he's relatively quiet about it, BB probably pre-dates KB, or at least close to it. Sure the volume of applications isn't the same, but theres a few others (nrich) who are in the same boat. Regardless of their respective resumes, there are some who keep relatively quiet about it. ;)
Good to see some applications. Although I'm not too sure who I'm gonna vote for. There isn't a clear stand-out IMO. Take a look at the past three coaches to get voted in:

"There is a coach with an amount of votes, however, there are also other coaches with votes. DRAMAAAAAAAAA."

Can confirm, its the last vote to come!
... the result is still not clear either :o
Results not clear and we're the last vote?
Get your bribes in lads! JPK and Mills ;)
Do you really need to confer with something like this? :P
It's times like these when I ask myself if it was worth constantly reminding NY of the fact that we beat them... :P
:o

Lol Purps!
Purps should stay up the night, and will see AK come on at 2am again and post the results then. ;)

You clearly don't have any interest in trading with Cape Town after robbing them of Dom Tyson. :P

not my fault the wait is making me emotional lol
Not like AK to not be on once all day
I'm sure he wouldn't mind if I just voted for us, but not sure if I should just vote or wait for him
I know you're all keen to find out though which is why I'm considering it
This is so painful ahaha
What tension? Truthin Ryan has it in the bag.

I'm more than confident AK would trust your judgement.
If it makes you feel better I voted without talking to Jukes. :P

Tax season is a pain. Been busy with work and catching up with a mate who tomorrow is moving to Sydney.
But I agreed with RD's votes and sent them earlier to Purps.
Votes are... IN!
I asked each coach to rank everybody out of six, meaning they awarded one coach 6 votes, another 5 votes, 4 votes etc...
The coaches seemed split on three candidates, who each received at least three "6-votes".
It was VERY close between these coaches.
If the applicants were interested to see where they placed, and how many votes they received, you can send me a PM.
But without further ado, I'm happy to announce that the new coach of the Cape Town Cobras, with 78 votes is...
GoLions
Classic case of "if you can't beat them, join them", in that GoLions drops his assistant coaching duties at Cairo and gets his chance at victory, as Cairo have never beaten Cape Town in the 5 times they've played each other!
Congratulations GL! I do hope you can address your banter weakness in our comp ;)

Hahaha, as expected but closer than I thought! congrats GL
And to the other applicants, thank you very much for applying! Time and time again the coaches would tell me it was hard splitting you guys.
If you apply the next time, you would be giving yourself a VERY good chance at winning the next position that opens up.
Congrats GL!
Congrats GoLions
We will still have positions for the Women's WXV open also :)
i give up
there needs to be a waiting list pretty frustrating i have been trying for like 3 years now
i know i sound like a sore loser i'm tired but still think i have a valid point
Bless the rains, we got rid of him! ;D
The truth is Dave's been tryna overthrow me for years... :o
Cheers everyone! So pumped to finally be a coach in WXVs! :D
Hope all the other applicants continue to apply for a coaching gig when the opportunity arises, some really good coaches there and you can just ask nige to see how convinced I was that I wouldn't get voted in haha.
Now, time to get Kate Upton into the finals! ;D
Congrats GL, you'll make a great addition to the WXV I'm sure.
Congrats Dave! Feel bad for those that went close but we'll get them next time. 8)
Congrats GL! I personally had you 6th, largely because your banter isn't up to scratch. Good to see others had faith in you though 8)

Yeah probably the most encouraging sign here was the number of excellent applicants, good times ahead for those leagues looking for new coaches!
