The final round of Dream Team Fantasy NRL is over - congratulations to the North Queensland Cowboys and our overall winning team "EL KILLERS" who took home a $2000 cash prize.

"Tippers Arm" came in second with "Miracle Workers" a very close third.

Thank you to everyone for taking part in another exciting fantasy season. Below I'll run you through which players ended up being the most valuable in the Grand Final as well as the season just gone.

We hope to see you again in 2016 for another intense competition.

Round 30 of Dream Team Fantasy NRL has come to a close - check out what the perfect fantasy starting 13 looked like.
