yeah bear

Whoever hasn't confirmed there transfers from this morning/early afternoon please do so.

Saves confusion.

Also change your budgets and add your new players saves confusion aswell.

done done done

Bit quiet at the minute but never mind.

Most people have bidded for fresh players, nothing more to do I guess.

About injuries however shall I start them asap, or first gameweek is injury free then start them?

Gameweek 1 teamsheets will be put up on Sunday, ready to hand them in by Tuesday then predictions can start Wednesday and Thursday. Results confirmed on friday?

Bathite you may need to do final scores if possible mate, as you have been doing them on ERL, my maths is totally awful.

Do 1st week injury free then take the injuries from then on - people will still be building teams . . . I used to do the injuries based on the team that was playing plus subs of course?

just worked out my starting line up NOT including the subs bench has well over 1000 caps between them!!! front row alone has 205 caps and my back row has about 287 woooooooooot woooooooooooooooooooot

Not sure my side will have as many caps as that as some played when internationals were not as regular an occurence as nowadays, but I think well over a 1000 pints of during pre season training should be do-able!

Mine'll destroy you in the drinking pete!!

Only cos you got cooooooooooooocchhhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!

Exactly!!!!!!!!!!!! My old man talks about his drinking after matches!!

Im going random everyone a stadium throughout the world at that will be there venue for the entire season.

You can't pick your own because it will take too long

It's only a bit of fun.

Kingston Park you are mate.

Deal with it, it's only a game.

I can't - it's too far north, I quit . . . seriously anything but a northern club mate,, jesus I will even take a french one just not anything above the M4!!! I can't live with myself . . .

Act your 40 years of age.

You can have Ant and Dec as mascots

seriously anything but a northern ground . . .

Easy there Hon

hey driver - where you been?

Will random your ground again then, bit of a dump I suppose.

And watching Glastonbury lol


I missed out on Ali :'(

I thought you died Driver maybe choked on a sausage or something, nice to see you to see you nice.

Please get two bids in you need them.

You have got the Madjeski Stadium.

Now be done with it's only a game.

bang on the A4 - I played football there once . . . it will do

Morning Bear

With the greatest of respect, am I bo ll ox having Headingly Carnegie as a home ground when people are getting places like Perpignan and Eden Park.

And what is wrong with the Sandhurst Memorial Park, it is where we have played our home games for like days now, we have history there, it is home. We will not be moved!!!

Up early pete arnt we pete lol

I've been up since about half six mate with the youngest, wifes turn for a lay in this morning, and the Crusaders vs. Sharks game is on shortly, so will be watching that.

Was hoping to catch it myself mate but managing a 10s team all day so hoping for success there. If you can tweet me the score mate it would be appreciated

Yeah, no worries mate.

Driver bid for some players mate.

Your losing out you need 25-26 by Tuesday.

Will give you Thomond Park Pete.

You should have realistic grounds, Leeds is a bit rubbish like Newcastle.

All stadiums are decent now, it's only a bit of fun really.

I actually want twickenham - it's the only ground big enough to take our supporters for home games as we are fecking brilliant . . . .

:run2:

Steven, Luke and Pull you need to add your players from yesterday's evening bids.

Saves confusion.

Twickenham will be used as a main venue if this game goes well and reaches the play-offs and finals.

Hahaha enjoy up north Hon!! I'm off to South Africa!!

Just a thought: if people aren't happy with their grounds why don't we pick legendary pitches close to where we live so for example: living in Cardiff I can pick the old arms park.

No it's just a bit of fun Prop nothing too serious.

Only a ground but I guess Newcastle and Leeds are unacceptable, they are a bit shabby when you put Welford Road, Madjeski, Thomond Park, and the Super 15 stadiums up against them.

I have everyone's squad numbers listed down going by the foreign transfers so I know if you haven't updated.

I will be looking!!!

I don't really want Thomond Park either as i have no affinity with there at all. Grounds that I would settle for...

Ravenhill
Kings Park (Durban) aka The Shark Tank
Lancaster Park (Christchurch) aka AMI Stadium
Sardis Road
Stade Yves-du-Manoir

I'll let you decide

Flaming hell it's only a bit of fun.

No need to get all mardy over a ground, it's only a game.

Please can people update there squads, add there new players.

Saves confusion.

Driver you need to start buying players.

Getting a bit worried that your falling behind, and teamsheets will be up tomorrow.

You only have 21 at the minute.

Week One teamsheets now open.

Please get them in by Tuesday

Morning Bear

Are we going to have a media page on this game, as in others, for press releases from clubs etc?

Bear - i'll put a teamsheet in pretty pronto after you accept/reject my bid from yesterday.

yeah looks good, just not sure about flatley personally!

Would you play Scott Hastings at 13 and move Guscott to 12 then Bathite?

no, don't move jerry!

i guess elton with gregan and larkham is a great combo. just personally don't like him that much. maybe some like JDV? greenwood? catt?
