I picked Bale of course but BRFC's market went incredibly well too! It would be have foolhardy not to take the Bale punt..
.. even if for you.
If he stay fit, it should secure you from relegation single handedly.

I'm kinda happy with the Neal pickup, but Bertrand Traore might turn out to be a dud.
BT is a decent enough FA, speculative but if he settles, prob RW, you'll have got a gud un. If not, hey, the pool is good enough with just 8, a few gems still in there and more te cum.
My midfield is thin after I went for 4 fwds in my first five rounds. So I need to live on FA scraps. Slim pickings.

I kept refreshing (not beer) and saw Neal was still there! 1 second later you'd got him!  Was only an opportunistic punt btw, happy with my XV but always on the lookout for a s/t punt. Good picks btw, you did well. I'm kinda happy with the Neal pickup, but Bertrand Traore might turn out to be a dud.
He should do well I reckon, I've picked him up too. Just the 4 Villains in my team now :-)

I picked Bale of course but BRFC's market went incredibly well too! Not unhappy, but then again: my squad still needs loads of work after my horrible draft. The Pereirra blunder has hopefully been taken care of with Reguilon. Torres was always a gamble, and he needs more time to settle so Neto with his sp duties looks like excellent replacement.

If I didn't have such an abundance of forwards,I'd have definitely gone for Neto as well. I was just a little unsure about neto and podence after semedo's arrival having a cascade effect on nuno's formation. That made me lean toward Maupay instead. Otherwise it was a toss up between those two for my FA pick.

A few beers down and I just couldn't resist it. I always like a punt if I've room, and this is one!

Netley continues his remarkable onslaught. Wow. 120pts this week already ! Scoring all round the team, looks incredibly strong. And the cherry this week was the late Tammy pickup. Sharp.
You've really come out flying out of the blocks, NL. This admin sleeve looks good on you

Week 3 results
Netley Lucas XI 120.5 Xabi 101 RAPID 90 Villarg 85.5 pUco 84.5 Slack-jawed troglodytes 78.5 B52 61.5 Barstonworth Rovers 30.5
Overall rank
Netley Lucas XI 276 RAPID 208.5 pUco 202.5 Xabi 182.5 Slack-jawed troglodytes 169 Villarg 169 B52 88.5 Barstonworth Rovers 80
P.S. NL, I don't know how to format this properly. Can someone help maintain this type of data weekly? It'd really help to keep this area alive. Then people like RAPID won't be able get away with unsolicited claims.

BRFC is off to a slow-start, contrasting with Netley Lucas well-documented whirlwind. If this were a 100m dash, no one else had a chance. But NØT RAPIÐ has made Bale to get him out of Jail, and BRFC is a well-known grafter of points. krs 's team is the one with the most potential (along with RAPIDs I think) to make an unexpected assault at any time. villarg is my mate from the championship and that dude knows how to build a team, trust me - one to watch out for. Of course, he can't go against his soul, and let me have the Villa players. I know he's biding his time to make that trade offer for Cash.
The international break offers a chance to turn around the team completely, so who knows what's in store with the WWs. Villarg, krs and I await. Will we be left hanging with our mouths open, or will the gods drop some elixir and revitalize our teams ?

If this were a 100m dash, I'd still be tying my spikes when NL passes me for his second victory lap Work to be done after that joke of a draft.

Work to be done after that joke of a draft. Your draft was pretty solid. Small sample set - 2 weeks. You need Sterling to fire, and you're carrying a few self-inflicted injuries. So I'm sure you expected a slower start than usual.
