WAITING LIST:
1. HERSH

na its ok mate, will leave them there as i have already posted tactics.

ive made the change

Anyone willing to let anyone go?

Anyone??? Like who? Lol

Well guys will have players that won't be sold at all. Looking towards bigger name guys that are willing to be swapped

Ask around...sure you'll get something

Guys

I'v just set up my Movember page if anyone would be kind enough to drop the odd 50p in here and there.

I'm starting now purely because i have the facial hair of a 12 year old.

Thanks in advance.

You should have started in Jan

Or last November I've been prepping mine for a while!! It's ready to be unleashed!!

Prem team of week:

Strangely only rate about half that team!

I really need the return of McCaw and Smith!

Out of interest when is Fourie returning to Super rugby do we know? And how long will people continue to rate Richie McCaw after his break from the game starts?

S15 off season so McCaw will be fine for a long time yet

Think Fourie is due back 2014??

McCaw is fine for me mate effectively only missing 2 or so months of rugby as hes in off season now. Fouries contract is up in 2014 but he hasn't said anything about returning to super rugby then. Will be 31 then so may well take one more pay day in Japan/Europe

so burger's back avaliable for me this week, even though he isnt part of my plans, and farrell and brown remain injured

1st of your injured players is available for AP Round 7...have HC this next couple of weeks

Burger is back then will miss farrell and brown, although i did win without them....just

with farrell injured who should i go with at 10?

Stick with Geraghty or go with Gopperth?

or try and bring in a replacement?

Burger is back for AP round 7

It's the Heiniken Cup for the next 2 weeks so he's not available yet

Well, I quite like Geraghty and would stick with him over Gopperth. Or try 36 at 10. Probs Geraghty. Geraghty 10, Twelvestrees 12 opens up the split 1st receiver avenue of play in tactics which is always fun

Hey! Some of us are in the Amlin, thank you

1st injured player is available 24 Oct onwards

ah right so all 3 players arent avaliable for Heniken cup then?

are we all in HC?

Some are in Amlin, everyone will have fixtures.

Yea none of the injured players are available until 24th mate

ok mate

But SOuth African and Argentine players will be back next week, Kiwis and Aussies the week after

Then the AIs come along and f*** up all our squads

I'm dreading the AI's!!!

im guessing my squad will take a massive hit in the AI!!

Everyone's will

Off the top of my head I'll lose Ryan, McCaw, Parra, Smith, Halfpenny for sure

Probably Kepu, Brown, Allen

Goneva for one match

Not as bad as I thought

I'm hoping that mine won't be too bad. I'll only another one or two hopefully.

Team for AIs?

1.Smit
2.Grey
3.Johnstone
4.Denton
5.Hargreaves
6.Croft
7.Brussouw
8.Fisher

9.Burguss
10.Heathcote
11.Short
12.Tonga'uhia
13.Payne
14.Lindsey Hague
15.Abendanon

16.Need a 3rd hook 17.Lambert 18.Collier 19.Merrick 20.Grey 21.Taylor 22.Sloan 23.A Short

Hard to say without knowing squads

Vunipola
Brits
Kepu? If not, Nieto
Kohn
Matthews/Kruis rotated
Brown? If not, special November signing or Fraser
Poff
Vunipola and Wray rotated
Spencer
Hodgson
Goneva (Mitchell when not available)
Allen? If not, Fitzpatrick/Stanley
Tomkins
Smith S/Wyles
Goode? If not, Wyles

I wouldn't play Fitzy at 12 for the time being pal , 3rd choice at Falcons behind Tui something pacific and Jamie Hueller.

Probs

Catt (Healy)
Mears
Perenise (Franks)
Muller
Attwood
Fearns (SOB)
Louw
Taylor

Classens
Hook / Donald
Biggs
Steyn (Barkley)
Lualala
Eastmond
Chisholm (Dagg)

Tolofua/ Batty, KPN, Golding, Caldwell, Skirving/Skuse/Mercer/Lund, Cook, Donald/Hook, Banahan

Surely Hook will be in Wales set up? Bigger looks pretty shiote when i'v seen him

after grabbing my first win my side are buzzing!!!!!

hopefully can kick on and actually grab some more wins, whilst strengthening the side..

Tough to fully know and not all sides play every week so can rotate through:

1. Corbisiero
2. BdP
3. Castrogiovani/Snickler ( Italy play 1/2 games??)
4. Slater
5. Launchbury
6. Fasavalui
7. Gill
8. Parisse/Cronje

9. Dickson
10. Barnes/Ford (Barnes punctured lung??)
11. Benjamin
12. JTH
13. Smith
14. Wade
15. Murphy

Tough to say who might sneak in squads etc.

Who would you suggest out of Stanley or Leonard then? Both can play 12 but are 10s

Don't think Allen will play CJ, Lancaster doesn't seem a fan

Difficult to assess where I would lose players, I'm thinking;

1. P James
2. Lindsay/Whitehead
3. Micthell possibly
4. Mumm/Swinson
5. Borthwick
6. A Johnson
7. Welch
8. Easter

9. Chudley/Hodgson
10. Evans
11. Ojo
12. Waldlouck
13. Lowe
14. Thompstone/Ransom
15. Southwell

Trying desperately to work out if its worth getting another superstar for the squad that will start when at full strength or maybe someone who is available all year round and fills in during 4Ns / AIs / 6Ns and injury, but rots on the bench rest of time

Superstar every time!!!

Yeah, I think I agree. Thinking probably an 8 or Hooker

You already have Hook??

haha! Edited that straight away, thought it might be confusing

Still some good 8's floating about

yeah, got my eye on a few.

there's probably still 2 'great' ones available
