DEFCON Monsters

Welcome to FF247 Site Team News GW28

DEFCON contributions have dominated conversations on X in recent weeks. We fall firmly into the “take the points and say thank you” camp. This week we were the grateful recipients of no fewer than four bonus pairs — Semenyo, KDH, Rice and Bowen all hitting their respective thresholds. Bonus. Literally.

Elsewhere, James somehow emerged with a clean sheet despite Chelsea losing theirs, and a trio of sixes from our captain (doubled to 12), Hill and Boomo meant it was, all things considered, a perfectly respectable week.

In the end, only three of our eleven blanked. 52 points was seven above the average and enough for another green arrow. We climb from 2,123,375 to 1,963,779. We’re clearly not winning the league this year, but we are at least facing the right direction — albeit very slowly.

Our Gameweek 27 Result

We have £0.9 in the bank and 2 free transfer to use ahead of GWXX. Let’s go see what was decided….

Our GW28 Transfer(s)

Transfers are now a remarkably efficient process at Site Team HQ. This week was no different.

Me: “We could do Saliba to Virgil and roll the second transfer?”
Quickly followed by: “We could also do Bowen to Thiago.”

A poll was posted. The people spoke. Unanimous agreement on both moves. We even received a pair of votes from the now-retired Swirly — still contributing despite no longer being an active participant. A huge miss around here. Democracy, it seems, is alive and well.

We even put the armband up for public vote this week. The winner? Thiago. We may be going slightly against the grain, but when you’re playing serious catch-up, safety first isn’t exactly the motto.

Good hunting, folks.

To confirm then we have SOLD Saliba and Bowen and BOUGHT VVD and Thiago

PREDICTED LINE-UPS

Back by popular demand! Well, sort of… Drafthound have changed their line-up approach this season and what it means for us is that we are no longer able to display a live feed of it on here due to some technical difficulties. That said, what they have done looks great and is still only a click away so if you want to access those they are HERE

All prizes must be claimed within 30 days of the final GW.

Both leagues will be closed to new entrants on 01/02/26.
