Well that was a let down. I sat down for Gameweek 2 of Last Man Standing rubbing my hands, waiting for the carnage, and what did I get? Nothing. Not a single elimination. All 25 of ye that got through Gameweek 1 are still standing. I'm only bitter because I'm already out, but more on that in a minute.
