The ScoutCast – Episode Ninety Seven – Dogging

Filed under: Fantasy Football Podcast - Posted by: Mark

Better late than never, our ninety seventh episode of the ScoutCast delivers another 45 minutes of mirth, plus injury time.

With the Professor otherwise engaged, it’s left to Jonty to provide backup to myself and Granville, arriving to deliver another “Fully Jonty” – the first to feature a community victim.

Doosra’s Fantasy fortunes come under the microscope, revealing a penchant for bandwagons and knee jerk transfers. Nevertheless, we try to go easy on the experienced campaigner, rounding things off with the extraordinary tale of the Doosra rescuing Jonty’s dog. True story.

That treat rounds off an episode that includes all the usual regulars, including our rinse through the forthcoming double Gameweek which Granville insists on placing within inverted commas: the weirdo.

      Me, definitely… As long as Clyne is fit and no other injuries arise, I can get away with 1FT next week to play 11 with 4 DGW this week.

    I have Davies, Sterling and Sturridge for DGW, do you think it would be wise to get in Suarez for RVP for 4 pt hit. It will mean I also need to take another hit next week to get rid. What you think?

      Tommyg says:

      Could work out but Suarez would have to score at least 2 for you to actually get 4 points in effect. If you captain then I guess it’s worth it but overall no.

    All set to go for tomorrow. Can’t wait although I’m still fearing not having Sturridge in for some reason. Everything look where it should be? Really need Wilson to play next week so it only takes me one hit to field 11!

    G: Tremmel

    D: Azipilicueta – GJ – Davies

    M: Mata – Bale – Gerrard (vc) – De Guzman – Walcott

    F: RVP – Suarez (vc)

    DDG – Anichebe – Wilson – Pearce

“I am happy with the way I’ve started, but on the other hand, I should have scored four or five more, so that’s something for me to work on.”

Robin Van Persie talks about his early form at United ahead of his first Manchester derby
