3 minutes to go and still no shot on target from Newcastle.

Beat me to it have never been so comfortable with a treble defence and Dunk captain.

Only annoy thing is Brighton do not seem to be getting much corners - all keep ball and Newcastle standing off them.

It's like a training match now, Newcastle have thrown in the towel.

They had 25% possession in the first half.

Newcastle supporters must be glad they are not there. Long auld trip as well - 700 miles round trip.

Yesssss!! Get in

Quadruple Brighton defence comes up trumps!

extra gravy · 20-03-2021 10:54pm

Triple cleanie

Captained Trossard and had a dream last night he came off injured after 3 minutes. Officially worried.

That went better than expected.

POKERKING · 20-03-2021 10:55pm

Phewwwwwwwww get in! Assist for veltman plus triple defence finally some planning pays off....

Jayus you scared the be jayus out of me. I just read the top line and assumed it was a Newcastle goal! :eek:

Muahahaha · 20-03-2021 10:55pm

Its looking like a good week so far for the free hitters, presume many had 3 Leeds and 2 or 3 Brighton

extra gravy · 20-03-2021 10:56pm

Trossard 3
Maupay 2
Veltman 1

Welbeck in the mix for that final bonus though

CSF · 20-03-2021 10:56pm

Dunk, Trossard and Maupay is a splendid treble to have there. Had Veltman instead of Dunk until late in the day but I will not complain too much after that haul.

I'm delighted anyway - 53points (including BPS) and 5 players still left to play

possibly my best week of the season

(including double game weeks ha ha)

I am on 38 after FH captained dunk treble Brighton defence. Benched Bamford like an eejit - but played Dallas and Rafinha.

Happy enough with it. But if Bamford was not flagged I would have played him instead of Antonio.

I assume a lot of FH people will finish in about the 60s by the end of this gameweek.

gammygils · 20-03-2021 11:03pm

20 from 2 there. Noice

38 from 5 in total with a possible 6 to play

Brighton clean sheet nailed on here.

Didn't work

dsmythy · 20-03-2021 11:19pm

Well done Brighton defence backers. Just Gross myself there. 35 now with 5-7 left to go. Probably 5.

It kind of takes away the belief that a FH shouldn't be used for just 4 matches. Once you can pinpoint at least one match where you have a clear favourite and go in on them.

Lundstram · 20-03-2021 11:23pm

34 from 2 there, 37 (-4) with 7 to play.

Newbie20 · 20-03-2021 11:28pm

25 (-4) from 3 players so far. Very happy with that. Only Dunk from Brighton but without the Free Hit I couldn’t afford to be stuck with a few Brighton lads in the next Gameweek!

Rikand · 20-03-2021 11:38pm

betting against Brighton was a bad idea

Veltman in the back 3 is annoying, zero attacking threat

Went for Dunk over him. Was blinded by that goal last week and had intended on getting the Dutchman up to that point.

dr.kenneth noisewater · 20-03-2021 11:49pm

Same here, liked Veltman stats before last week and then got swayed watching the Southampton game last Sunday to splash out on Dunk.

25 from 3 so far sees red arrows, seems to be more FH in play than I'd thought.

siblers · 21-03-2021 12:19am

Only Sanchez for me, not on a FH and didn't want double Brighton with their upcoming fixtures which may have been a mistake now

Jim Gazebo · 21-03-2021 1:13am

On 35 now with 5 to go but that's likely 4. Would have snapped your hand off for a score like that at start of the GW.

sheroman01 · 21-03-2021 1:18am

29 (-4). Martínez, Dawson, Son(!), Watkins and Kane (c) to go. Kane doing well will actually be good for me, few others didn’t captain him in my main leagues. Lingard needs to stay quiet tho!

CSF · 21-03-2021 1:21am

38 with Reguillon, Cresswell, Aubameyang, Bale, Kane (c)

It’ll be the first time I’ve captained a player playing Villa this season and not a feeling I had missed.

Trimm Trabb · 21-03-2021 9:11am

46 from 6 - brought in Veltman and Trossard this week with 2 FT so HEWT to say the least.

Have been tipping along at 300k since Christmas but finally a bit of a breakthrough to 180 now. A good wildcard and bench boost could salvage my season.

Kane (c), Martinez, Konsa and Probably not Son to play.
