I did pose the question on blog what the 2 x 3/39 DEE players are worth. Ed has not answered that and posted Junk instead.
I haven't posted junk, but about junk. Small difference.
And my current evaluation system only gives relative values, so posting numbers like 1032 or 1768 would be rather pointless.

Pretty much junk this week, but mostly perfectly understandable.
Suffering from stressful mid-week cup matches, especially SRA and ALB were left without much fuel.
This even lead to DEE's 1st junk opponent: SRA and DEE both silently agreed on saving their ressources for the cup final, 49/43 was a solid JvJ.
The JOTW though was much more impressive:
LIV (the only other team without junk faced before) faced junk specialist ARB, turning in 35/38 for a real JvJ classic. The numbers of this match would be rather expected in Div6, but this 2-2 was indeed happening in Div1!
NAI defend their overall lead with 5 junk faced, but 4 teams are now close behind with 4.

ARB are still comfortably ahead with 55%.
The bottom 3 remain the same at 63+%, but are actually closing in on the rest.
Ignoring ARB it almost looks like random noise.
Pretty much buzz about a simple deal.
Kevin wanted something - and had something I could use.
No machine guns or other means of pressure involved. AI(DEE) is neither a newbie nor DEE(AI)'s farm team.
Both sides apparently content.
I won't go much into evaluation details, but a simple example what's wrong about some numbers presented ...
But as a reference two 0/17 players traded recently for 950k plus 10 resources.
Yes, they were.
I consider those deals ridiculously overpriced.
Paying 3 (or even 10*) times as much for a player than you pay for a 1/17 at the auction should be forbidden and instantely reversed!
* 1/18 sold for 220k at auction in S33!
If you want to convince me of any issues, please show me a couple of 3/34 for 4000k trades.

A new sole leader: NAI tops the table.
ALB and HIB stay in reach.
ARB must have felt cheated. They had to face TWO competive 60+ lineups this week (almost unprecedented) - and dropped to #4.
NAI's lead is certainly deserved.
Their match vs DUM was a JvJ classic: 44/39: all Stall from both teams and ZERO shots, let alone goals!
GO NAI - and DUM!
SRA gets their 1st JvJ and leave the bottom 3.
Only LIV and DEE are still waiting for their 1st junk.
