G'day OzSpurs NFG League. This is your weekly FPL update.
The winner for gameweek 23 was 'Diamond Lights' [Mark Phillips] with 86 points! Rounding up the top 3 for the week was 'Big B-Ange Theory' [Joe Jones] (81 pts) and 'Cugels Minions' [Gary Brookes] (79 pts).
'Birdinand FC' [John Heuvel] stayed at the top of the table with 1497 points increasing their lead to 9 points ahead of 'Socceroos' [Joe Gonzalez] in second place. At the other end 'Juice's Marvels' [Nektar Vavoulas] continues to languish in last place with a meager 822 points.
The worst ranking teams this week were 'Badcoe' [Steve Holdstock] (38 pts), 'Double-Barrelled' [Rob Walsh] (35 pts), 'Ho Sei Liao' [Dee Tee] (31 pts), and 'Magoo' [Stuart Peaston] (30 pts). Hang your heads in shame.
When it came to captaincy choices 'Dynamo Kebab' [Thomas Wilson] and 'Big B-Ange Theory' [Joe Jones] did the best this week with 39 points from Alexander Isak. On the other end of the spectrum was 'Unbelievable Tekkers' [Glenn Osborne] who had picked Kevin De Bruyne for a total of 2 points. You receive the armband of shame for this week.
Moving onto substitutions 'Paranoid Angedroid' [Jevon Hall] will be kicking themselves after having left an astounding 27 points on the bench which was the highest in the league.
'Hapless Wanderers' [Russell Dryer], 'Gruts & Gravy' [Carlin Budd], and 'WeDontTalkAboutNuno' [Ryan Shave] did the best with automatic substitutions this week receiving 9 points off the bench in lieu of players not playing. 'Onomah Son' [George Gialis], 'PorroSomeSugarOnMe' [Perry Collins], and 'pudding' [Kai Neville] were not as fortunate getting an insignificant 0 points from their automatic subs.
As for shakers and movers 'Ange Balls' [Noah Evans] climbed 14 spots this week. In the not so great department we have 'oh Mickey ur so fine' [Josh Davies] and 'Ho Sei Liao' [Dee Tee] dropping 12 spots.
