The reduced Canada Life Premier League programme of three matches on Saturday gave some new faces the chance to shine.
As a result 10 of the latest Team of the Week make their seasonal bow in the hypothetical XI.
The only man who has featured before is Rushen midfielder Jack Saxon.
The mercurial winger slots into a two-man midfield alongside Corinthians’ Luke Murray after the Spaniards beat Douglas Athletic 5-1 to move up to fourth in the table.
Murray was one of the Whites’ top performers as they came from behind to beat Braddan 4-1 and maintain their 100 per cent start to the season.
Scoring one of those goals, in a result that moves Corinthians top of the league, was targetman Sean Doyle.
The former Marown player slots into a gung-ho front four alonside Rushen duo Josh Kelly and Michael Williams plus Player of the Day Rhys Oates.
The latter netted a brace as St John’s picked up their first win of the season with an impressive 5-1 victory over St Mary’s.
Kelly and Williams also both bagged braces as United struck five against Athletic at Croit Lowey.
Also impressing in that fixture at Croit Lowey was Rushen centre-back Alex Maitland who stood out against the Pinks.
Filling out the side’s defensive ranks are St John’s duo Eric Kelly and Sam Ingham, plus Corinthians full-back Darryl Haslett.
Kelly and Ingham shone as the Johnners shot up to eighth in the table after victory over their fellow Saints.
Haslett’s fine start to life at Corinthians since a summer switch from Laxey continued in Saturday’s win over Braddan, the defender grabbing a rare goal as the promoted Swans were beaten 4-1.
Claiming the TotW coveted number one jersey is Corinthians’ Adam Killey, while landing the much sought after Referee of the Week title goes to John McCallum who impressed with the whistle during St John’s win over St Mary’s.
