No DGWs. Eight teams on a bye, six games and 12 teams. If you still have your first half wildcard available, this is probably the time to use it. I did. It is only good for 4 weeks after this. If you don't have your wildcard available, I hope you planned ahead and do not have a roster filled with players who are off this week.

I didn't realize the WCs were only 1 per half the season. Guess I didn't read the fine print. Glad I have an attorney reviewing for me. Thanks!

"A wildcard allows you to make unlimited transfers throughout a round. You are issued two wildcards at the start of the season. You may play the first wildcard between Round 1 to Round 17, and the second wildcard between Round 18 to Round 34. Once you play your wildcard, any saved transfers will be lost. You will not be able to play a wildcard during rounds where transfers are unlimited."

There are unlimited transfers in Rounds 19 and 33.

I still have mine and plan to use it this round.

I have 5 players ( Giovinco, Piatti, Kljestan, Larin & Campbell) on a bye this week and I haven't really finagled around yet with my lineup yet.
 
I used my WC in a drunken panic at the stadium when I saw that Oduro wasn't playing against us in the first of a DGW. He came on and scored. And then again in the next game. I replaced him with Manneh, who didn't play. I could really use that WC now.
 
I just set my line up. I've been doing really well this year and I hated like hell to make all the changes I had to make. I saw where Blake (Philly) is also out because of International Duty, so I had to replace 8 starters because of Copa, injury or the bye. Ugh.

GK: Gleeson

DF: Bernardez, Zimmerman, Kemp

MF: Diaz, Castillo, Valeri, Pontius

FW: Villa (C), Plata, dos Santos

Thanks for the Blake tip. He was not marked for international duty 2 days ago when I made my moves. The unlimited moves is a luxury.

They certainly are.

Not only did I get 8 free moves to set my starting lineup, I was able to finagle my bench too. Replacing Johansen with Worra as my backup 'keeper saves me 1/2 a million. That's a move I've been wanting to do for a long time, but no way was it ever worth making over any other transfers I had to make.

I was also able to stash a guy like R.J. on my bench, so I'll have a decent player coming on if I ever needed the auto-sub to kick in.

I'm sitting on $3.3 mil in the bank, so I don't anticipate too many problems bringing back the guys I had to move.

Gosh darn it!!! I planed on getting my lineup done before the matched and then my daughter throws a crazy fit before bed. Didn't she realize I had a fantasy deadline????
 
Had no idea about Blake either. So now I can count on zero from GK in addition to the three likely zeros from field players.
 
Upside: Blake blinsided me, but gleeson stepped up like a champ.

Downside: two weeks ago i prepared for this and slotted La Toux & Yaro in; picking them over pontius and rosenberry. Yaro out when i have no one to sub and pontius outperforms la toux. Oh and put matta in for the double which he played only once and has had stinkers since then and is getting me zero for being on international duty (this one was on me i should have known he was going to go with costa rica).
