    Free hit time.

      First sensible thing you've said!

    FH29!

      Think i'm gonna go against the FH 29 (can't see any big upside)..gamble i can get more from a DGW FH than the 8 single players that others will play in FH29 (reckon I can field 3 players in 29). Is that a goer even?

      1. Randaxus
        • 4 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        3 players is really bad haha

      2. Silecro
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        3 players is basically forfeiting a week. FHers will probably average between 40-60pts, while you might score single digit gameweek with 3 players. Free hit in DGW almost never gives that kind of difference

          Great point indeed. But,gw29 is a limited amount of matches, which don't look like they could produce anywhere near the top-side of that estimate...yet a full set of dgw fixtures would beat the gw29 set....that's my kinda thoughts, but I'm sure you could be spot on (i need to have a good look at this).

          1. RICICLE
            • 2 Years

            But aren’t the double gameweeks of low calibre teams anyway? And most people will have the main culprits of they’re good teams that are doubling anyway in their normal teams?

              Could be so my friend. I need to investigate who the likely suspects are for the DGW. Agreed also, re the main culprits covered, the only caveat on those top players is that past seasons show heavy rotation issues (if nothing to play for or cup matches etc)....it's a minefield aye....I'll be keenly reading these pages, over the coming days. Gd luck all.

  5. JonP

    Freehit 29 confirmed then.

  6. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 4 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Going in with 7 or 8 I think (maybe 9 with a hit)

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Why?

      People will hit into a dgw but sacrifice the same margin in a big bgw29

      Lovely jubbly

      1. George James
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        I think it’s the players you are going to be bringing in. Boring

      2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        • 4 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Why not? All the teams are bad defensively, no City, Liverpool or Arsenal, 4 of the bottom 5 teams, etc. Don't feel like I'll be missing out massively

    2. im1974
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I’m with you Nate. GK/def literally pointless. Get front 7 job done

  7. Do I Not Like Orange
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Not wasting a FH on Luton & Brentford players. Think I have 4 at present, might get a couple of Spurs but really not bothered about the rest.

    1. Vinyl78LP
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Do you not believe Luton or Brentford players could well haul against poor Forest and Burnley defences ?

      1. boombaba
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        No

      2. Do I Not Like Orange
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        I might get Toney, but those stink of games where 4 bad teams are involved and could easily end 1-0 either way.

  8. putana
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    who do you think scores more over the next two gameweeks: son (cry, avl) or bowen (eve, bur)?

    1. boombaba
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Son this week Bowen next week
      So buy son then Bowen …

    2. I Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Son

  9. Biggsy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Need positive news on Pau, Adebayo and Porro. If they're out, I've got 2 non-blanks so no point even trying to avoid the FH....

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Might well miss out this week but be available in GW29

      1. Biggsy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Yeah, that's the gamble. Problem with two defenders out is it means playing Maguire Vs City so I was looking at Sensei which is definitely one less 29 player

  10. rjcv177
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Last gw was a win for the NonFH29. Buying d.luiz, Bailey, bowen in preparation went awesome (not me unfortunately).
    And these results are validating their punt

  11. Randaxus
    • 4 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Maybe we could even do Son Richarlison Maddison on the free hit.

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      The -son dynasty

      1. Randaxus
        • 4 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Here is what I am thinking Son Richarlison Maddison Bowen Kudus.

        1. boombaba
          • 12 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          And Bailey

      2. Skonto Rigga
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Toney Watkins & Sons

        They did my roof last January, competitively priced

  12. Gunners in Haaland
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Could field 7 with just 1 hit

  13. Hygrade184
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Free hit 34 or 38

    1. boombaba
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Team dependent

    2. Yes Ndidi
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I get the feeling 34 could be a nightmare to negotiate with blankers as well as doublers, so FH then would mean not having to worry about it at all.

  14. FPL Sanky
    • 1 Year
    1 year, 2 months ago

    What's the latest on Konsa? Will he be available for 29? I have held him this long only for 29

    1. Skonto Rigga
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Seen in training today

        Wow that's great news..cheers.. banking on his 2 points for GW29

      Whenever

  16. SpaceCoyote97
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Salah or De Bruyne for this week?

    1. Silecro
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Salah not even sure to play any minutes, let alone start

    2. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      KDB lol, Salah not even fit

    3. reo19uk
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I think De Bruyne won't start after playing full match yesterday and having Champions league 3 days later.

      If he does though he could score really big!

      1. Jimmers
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        3-1 up in the CL and are at home - ne need for KDB. He plays on Sunday

    4. Maeki2
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Salah will play, and kdb wont start

      1. Jimmers
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Wrong way round

        1. Definitely not sleeping
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Pep says, your all wrong

  17. Randaxus
    • 4 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Here is my first draft of FH 29

    Flekken

    Reguilon Collins Doughty

    Son Richarlison Maddison Bowen Kudus

    Watkins Toney

    1. I Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      You have 4 Brentford players there.

      1. Randaxus
        • 4 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Ow damn, need to take out a defender.

        Ok maybe this

        Flekken

        Porro Reguilon Doughty

        Son Richarlison Bailey Bowen Kudus

        Watkins Toney

    2. im1974
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Looks worse than my 6 players

  18. Sharkytect
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Glad about this. I did no planning for gw29 other than to assume I'd be free hitting. I now have 1 bgw 29 player in my team. Pedro porro. Free Hit it is

  19. Buck The Trent
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Which one ?

    A) KdB (MUN) then to Son
    B) KdB to Son this week (CPL)

  20. Bob B
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Raya (Dubravka)
    Moreno Porro Estupinan (Ake Reguilon)
    Saka Palmer Foden Bowen Son
    Haaland Watkins (Toney)

    Would you make a move here or roll?

    A. Estu to Doughty
    B. Foden to Maddison / Richarlison
    C. Other?

  21. I Member
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    I can get to this for free in 29:

    Areola
    Pedro Porro, Doughty, Taylor
    Son, Bowen, Richarlison
    Watkins, Toney

    Will take a hit for another midfielder and that should be more than fine.

    1. Yes Ndidi
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      That's plenty
      I'm currently on
      Areola or Leno
      Porro Doughty
      Bowen
      Watkins

      Kev > Son
      & probably Garnacho > Barkley (8th attacker) & Solanke > Toney, all for free would probably see me right for 29 without too much dead wood to carry over.
      Would still have Gabriel, Saka, Palmer, Haaland & Tripp

  22. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
    • 10 Years

    Reverse fixture scores

    Brentford 3 Burnley 0
    Spurs 2 Fulham 0
    Forest 2 Luton 2
    Villa 4 West Ham 1

    1. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Maybe Villa West Ham a bit closer this time. Luton Forest is a 6 pointer. Expecting lots of goals. Think Fulham score this time but otherwise the top two look pretty good for a repeat

  23. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    So I’ve 7 currently for gw29. Can get 10 without a hit. Easy hold on the FH for me.

    Who would you lose for Son this week, Palmer or Gross? Leaning toward losing Palmer.

    Thank you

    1. I Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I would lose Gross before Palmer but you could also keep both and wait until 29 for Son. Good fixtures for Gross and Palmer.

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Thanks for the response. I’m actually considering Palmer to Son 27, Saka to Barkley 28 and Solanke to Toney 29

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          WC 30/31

        2. I Member
          • 9 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          Sounds like a solid plan.

    2. im1974
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Palmer. Chelsea done

  24. CoKane & Zohores
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    My plan is to dead end into GW29 and try to get 8 or 9 players using free transferes. Assess the DGW projections and wildcard GW30 or 31 to set up for bench boost and free hit in the doubles.

    1. boombaba
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Wouldn’t you want to benefit from WC in 30 or is there a reason to wait to 31

  25. Darragh82
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    I won’t be free hitting for a bonus of maybe 20 points.
    I can’t see many clean sheets so there is a bunch of 2-3 pointers
    4-5 players starting defence might get you 15 points
    Everyone will have Areola, Son, Watkins, Bowen, Toney + 1-2 more like Bailey and Kudus so your probably covered if you have them.
    I just don’t see the value in using it for a small gain which could be eaten up later in the season when there will be other doubles. I’ll be happy going in with 6-7 players

    1. Bennerman
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      There will be two decent doubles as far as I know (34 and 37) which are easily built towards with this much time - especially with wildcard in hand and bench boost to use on the most propitious double.

      So easy FH decision for me for 29, make good gains when so many will struggle to field decent teams, and will also be dropping points via hits in the meantime - both on 20 itself and in the weeks leading up to it.

      1. Bennerman
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        29 itself

  26. jonnybhoy
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Play with 6/7 players or FH?7

    1. boombaba
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I’m going with 7 decent picks. Don’t want junk for hits
      Areola
      Porro Udogie
      Son Bowen
      Toney Watkins

  27. putana
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    at least I wont feel guilty about bringing in Son and benching hwang

  28. Skonto Rigga

    O'Neil would be "amazed" if Hwang plays in GW27:

    1. Biggsy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Well of all the GW26-29 preparations I didn't want, spending 2 transfers to hokey cokey a Wolves player was certainly near the top of that list....

    2. Randaxus
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I am going to be playing 4 at the back if Solanke and Hwang are both injured.

    3. im1974
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Love it. CC group think mudded……until this week…next week…etc etc

  29. DCSpurs
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Can field 10 with a - 4 hit (Barkley in dgw 28), possibly 11 with Kabore but not assured of minutes.

    1. DCSpurs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Areola
      Moreno Reguilon (Kabore)
      Son Richy Barkley Bowen
      Toney Watkins Morris

  30. Randaxus
    • 4 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    You can't be serious that Hwang and Solanke are both injured lmfao

    1. RICICLE
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I’ve only just found this out from a mate texting me, what’s this about Hwang? I thought wolves manager said he was ok?
      Solanke I’ve no idea about

        "Channy's is disappointing because this game should be on the weekend. He felt something in his hamstring but it's small, nothing like Neto or Cunha. I'd be amazed if he plays at the weekend." - Gary O'Neil

          Cheers for that much appreciated.
          Damn! Damn damn Damn! I may have to take a hit this GW then, I mean I don’t need to I guess, but if Solanke is looking like not playing also I may have to.
