Festive Fallout - Best and Worst Holiday Performers + GW22 Waiver Wire

After the holiday break break, the lads are back to break down the festive fixture pile-up, catching up on everything that’s happened across multiple gameweeks over Christmas and New Year.

This episode covers the standout performers and quiet disappointments from the holiday run, with plenty of discussion around which trends feel real, which ones might be misleading, and how much stock fantasy managers should really be putting into recent form. There’s debate around shifting team dynamics, returning players, and what the last few weeks might actually be telling us as the season enters its next phase.

The second half turns attention to the waiver wire, with a deep look at defensive value, midfield consistency, and a handful of forward options that could help plug gaps heading into the next gameweek. It’s a practical reset episode for managers trying to recalibrate after a chaotic stretch of fixtures.
