The ScoutCast – Episode Ninety Nine – Convalescence

7 March 2013 2834 comments

Mark

One man’s personal battle to mastermind his beloved Fantasy Football team through extreme adversity steals the show in this week’s episode of the ScoutCast – and we’re not talking about Granville struggling with his BAFTA award-winning hangover.

Episode 99 has all the usual ingredients as we look back on Gamweek 28, rinse through the Gameweek 29 options, pop in to disturb the Professor and his Rate My Team computer, analyse the transfer ins and outs and, of course, give another community member the “Fully Jonty” treatment.

Jonty delivers a heart-warming and rather humbling account this week, emphasising just how far the dedicated Fantasy manager will go to steer his ship. Postponing your bedbath to play your Wildcard? You better believe it.

Enjoy our bedside manner via this link or drip-feed the medicine by using the handy player below…

  He played up top and had a great chance but chose to try and chip the keeper like a show pony. Not much other than that but played out wide or in behind Cisse could be a different story.

My main rival in a money ML has 9 players out this weekend, and has Sterling, so effectively 10! 🙂

He has his WC but it isn't active yet, so this could be a great week to pull away.

I got 10 players (no hit). Anyone else in a similar position?

Cameron to Samba for a -4..
Logic is that my defense is
Zabaleta Davies Harte Pearce Cameron.. so if i dont do it this week i'll get 0 from Cameron and next week i'll have to play one of my reading guys away to manu!! Samba should score 4 more points than Cameron + Harte over GW 29 and GW 30(as they'll likely score 0)

WHO AM I?

I was born in an igloo in a country called Iceland, or more commonly known as Canadia.
As a child, I partook in a wide variety of sports including ice hockey, ice skating, doing ice and curling.
My best friend was a penguin. He was a nice guy. I loved everything aboot him, eh.
My favourite band is Simple Plan and my favourite singer is Justin Beaver.
Nowadays, I’m a full-time professional FPL player. Although my rank clearly states that I am ranked 1820th, I believe that I am the best in the world at FPL.

I am….?

    Just because Benteke has drawn a blank against two very good teams everyone seems to have forgotten his elite class.
    
    Benteke is the only player I don't own who I'd want to captain. but iId rather do Bale keep Rooney and avoid a hit.

  Would you do this as a long-term transfer if it was a FT and Demel had a game? If so then go for it - I think it's odds-against that you'll get the 4 points back this week (could happen, though) but if you want Demel out regardless now is a good time.

      Yeah they should be allowed to do the first part but not the second bit i.e. get away with it. The press can report whatever they want, even if it is a blatant attempt to derail the club and upset the camp. What I don't like is that the club and Sir Alex are the bad guys when they show these liars the door and essentially tell them to go f*$k themselves.
      
      Both are within their rights to take the action they did IMO.

Three quick questions.

1. Best sub 5,4m striker as a punt this week and a future 8th attacking player (bench fold). Currently thinking ALF or Weimann

2. Best one week punt striker? (will change him to RvP next week). Currently thinking Benteke, Lukaku, Cisse, Lambert, Remy, Holt (already got Suarez)

3. Captain Bale or Suarez (currently leaning towards Bale given his unbelievable form lately)
