    Up against a guy in 879k versus my 50k. He captained Ozil and has a pretty decent team.

    Up against a fellow Kane captainer. He has a double WBA defence while I have none, that'll likely decide it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,752 ✭✭✭Lights On


    Guy I'm up against already has a 10 point lead thanks to Arnie and my -4. Both of us captained Kun and have pretty similar teams so Alli, Giroud & Ozil are the ones I need to win it. Not holding my breath!

    Up against a guy ranked 939,649 places lower than me. Barkley, Vardey and Ighalo in common. My captain Mahrez to his captain Giroud.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,745 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    My opponent has Arnie and Glen Johnson, I'm not confident right now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 369 ✭✭KrakityJones


    Third year in a row where I'm up against an easy opponent on paper... Then I go and do my thing which this week was turfing out Kane for Giroud. Guess who my opponent has captained...

    Current score me:24 pts Opponent 47

    Feck this fantasy football lark

    Two guesses who the guy I'm against has his VC coming in for Kun. KDB :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,756 ✭✭✭richieffff


    My opponent is just over the 2m mark and has 4 clean sheets with Cech still to come


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,099 ✭✭✭✭PARlance


    Think I'm 58 vs 52 going into the final game. My Ozil vs Cech & Bellerin. He benched Ozil. No CS please.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,148 ✭✭✭✭km79


    I'm through


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,502 ✭✭✭spock.


    My Bellerin +4 v Giroud
    Need one of these teams to keep a clean sheet!

    Going to be a close one, even with his KDB captain it looks like it's coming down to both our Arsenal players. I have Ozil & Giroud. He has Cech & Bellerin


  • Registered Users Posts: 742 ✭✭✭ItsChecoTime


    Need Ozil to score < 10 to go through as your man has him vice captain after Aguero's no show. Would like a bit of a cup run as I haven't got a whole lot else to play for


  • Registered Users Posts: 42,084 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    63-55 up after baps. We both have Ozil left and he also has Monreal. So I need Monreal to score 7 or less and I'm through. He had Ighalo and Clyne on the bench with 6 pts each so I'm fairly lucky to be ahead.


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,348 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    My poor opponent has 27 points all played and buttland kdb ward and woolshed on the bench.

    I have 40 with belly and Ozil to go


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,752 ✭✭✭Lights On


    Got through by the skin of my teeth, purely because Cech/Bellerin blanked worse than Ozil/Giroud! Hopefully it won't end up this tight in the next round!

    Just about through
    58-56 the final score.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    I'm through beat a lad that played his bench boost.


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,249 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    61-53 I win. My opponent was at 85k so a decent victory.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Completely forgot it was cup week and had taken a -8 in preperation for the festive period.

    Still managed to scrape through by 3 points as my vc Kane became my captain when Aguero stayed on the bench.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,589 ✭✭✭MarkSRFC21


    Despite my shocking week, my opponent somehow had a worse week. KDB the difference. 36-24 win. On to the next round

    Met a player 2 pts above me in the OR. Glad I managed to get through mainly thanks to captain Kane :D.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 102 ✭✭Usernemises


    Despite my horrific choice of captain I got through, albeit against a lad that hasn't changed his team in about a month I'd say. 3 players in the red.

    Pathetic week for me. Beaten 54-31


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,752 ✭✭✭Lights On


    Forgot to add in my -4 to the score when I was adding it up last night, ended up loosing by 4. Aguero is making it his mission to ruin my season this year :pac:


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 689 ✭✭✭Torricelli


    Won 71-37. Poor lad fell 300k with that score.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    I got through 54-51. My opponent took a 4 point hit to bring in Aguero, who didn't play.... Ouch!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,296 ✭✭✭✭gimmick


    What was the qualifying criteria to enter? A guy in my league with more points than me didn't qualify but I did.

    Safely though to round 2 anyway and should almost be a bye week. My opponent has Rooney as captain. His entire bench in injured and has only 10 available players.

    Watch me screw it up :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,148 ✭✭✭✭km79


    I finally sold mata and the lad in playing still has him at the moment
    I think we all know what's going to happen :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,553 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    My team 28k vs his 1m

    He won 68-58

    - Woke up and for breakfast I ate 2 Weetabix’s with unsweetened almond milk and a banana. - For lunch I ate a portion of mashed potatoes with grilled chicken breast and a salad followed by a vanilla protein shake with unsweetened almond milk. - Then I went to the gym. I ran for exactly 31 mins and did 5.2km. I then did a chest workout which consisted of bench press and chest press followed with a bicep workout. To finish of my workout I did 50 sit ups. Throughout the day I randomly do pushups around the house, also. - After the gym, I ate the same as for breakfast (rice cakes and chicken with ketchup) and had a protein shake with water this time. - An hour later, I ate 3 small clementines followed by a decaf coffee with approx 30ml of skimmed milk and a heaped tea spoon of brown cane sugar.

    Think it was the highest 1.3 million odd GW points scored in GW 17.
