NYLON – 6.5/10 – Whit? Don’t know. Yassss!! Exactly how does he do that? Don’t know. Did anybody see him come on? Don’t know. Is he really great, or really mince? Don’t know.

LORD KATSUMOTO – N/A – FFS, Daizen. Wanders on with his hair dyed the hue of perhaps some sort of exotic coleslaw you’d get in a quirky Japanese restaurant.

JAMESY – 6/10 – A Sunday Skelper fills time to waste time, and yet still manages to set up some glory and get a yellow. The Sheep proudly proclaim their fondness for mutton, then the Prestwick Pele rocks up, throws in the winning assist, and there’s no contest; Silence of the lambs.

SCRATCHY – N/A – Up for it, as always, and was the first hooped shirt to actually put a ball in behind them after 80 minutes or something. Starts Sunday if KT rested/injured? No problem. Zombies won’t know what hits them; it’ll be double South American sicarios, actually…

MELLOW YELLOW – N/A – Big lunk gives away a last-gasp corner and spikes the valium share price.
