| 0:00.0 | Let's talk about the biggest questions for week one next on fantasy football today in |
| 0:07.7 | five. |
| 0:10.6 | Welcome to FFT in five. |
| 0:11.6 | I'm Chris Towers. |
| 0:12.6 | I'm here with Eve Cummings and we are looking ahead to week one which starts in two days |

| 1:18.6 | Where are you ranking Travis Kelsey for the rest of the season? |
| 1:21.8 | I still think you take Travis Kelsey in round one. |
