Take Baz’s 126, I have Naicos and Bont to come
Team has stunk it up this week Flanders injured, McInerney Injured, McCluggage just bad. Three players on field posting 30’s two more post 40’s. Season gone drowning in the sea.
The one bright spot is Smith my VC which I’ve taken for my captain score.
Can’t wait to trade out some of these so called pretend premiums players.
On for 1650 here 😂😂😂😂
