The ScoutCast – Episode Ninety Seven – Dogging

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.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    My Team Value is looking good because Gerrard Zabaleta DeGuzman and Davies will be rising!

    i know that you're all a bunch of perfectionists but who is reasonably happy with their team this week? (also with a view to next week).

      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?

      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.
