by Sgt_Pooly Sat 2 Dec - 11:56

Anyone up for a bit of dealing?

RL WC final....6-0??? And with an Aussie ref??

by Sgt_Pooly Sat 2 Dec - 14:54

SA backs are pretty awful, Pollard having a stinker. Marx is a cracking player though, be the best Hooker about sooner or later.

by Sgt_Pooly Sun 3 Dec - 7:45

AP round 4 https://www.606v2.com/t66873-ap-round-4#3650207

Weather updated also, avoid Worcester next weekend.

by ChequeredJersey Sun 3 Dec - 17:40

What a win by Quins. Walker and Lang really stepping up, Care and Robshaw leading by example and the Quins scrum matching Sarries all except for one scrum

by Fluxy Mon 4 Dec - 9:17

Same drill as last week please gents, predictions open until midday

by pullthestrings Mon 4 Dec - 9:22

Getting them in now...

by Fluxy Wed 6 Dec - 13:52

Comments up, league table up to date. I will attempt to update budgets and pages for next week, by the end of this week.

by Sgt_Pooly Thu 7 Dec - 10:55

Get those tactics in lads, only a few left.

by Driver Thu 7 Dec - 12:15

Will do tonight after 9

by Sgt_Pooly Sun 10 Dec - 14:56

If you get a bit of time, give the Newcastle - Bordeaux 1st half a go. Some unreal rugby from the Falcons, the Sowery try and last one of the half (when we broke from our 22 with the clock past 40) the picks.

The young Bordeaux 10 scored some crackers too, he looks a real talent.

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 11 Dec - 3:51

I won't be able to do this weeks match thread Flux.

by Driver Mon 11 Dec - 18:40

Are we doing the European rounds because if we're not i'll do the round 5 thread as i'm off Friday and can update it then.

by BamBam Wed 13 Dec - 9:55

Feels like we need a bit of a shake up in the league to get things moving and keep interest, no deals since we started isn't great!

What about some sort of draft from our existing squads?

Ie each manager has to make 3 players available from their last starting line up, including at least 1 EQ player

We then get 2 picks each from the players made available

Will shake up the starting line ups a bit if nothing else

by pullthestrings Wed 13 Dec - 10:32

Doesn't sound a bad idea, Bam.

I do find doing deals on here frustrating. Everyone seems to rate players differently, which is a good thing, but it makes trying to match similar rated players for deals very hard. Also noone wants to give an inch and would rather hold onto players for fear of getting the bad end of a deal (myself included!).

I've been after front 5 players since the start and have a plethora of backs to offer in a deal... has been difficult so far though.

Also where is Flux?

by stnick88 Wed 13 Dec - 10:35

yeh the lack of deals makes it not as fun.
draft sounds like a good idea to me.

by BamBam Wed 13 Dec - 10:36

Yeah its been more difficult with the start up players, I've been trying to get some back rowers in with little success

Not sure where Flux is, imagine he's busy in the lead up to Xmas

Just think we're losing momentum before we've even got going now that the squads are so settled. Would need to be more or less unanimous agreement before we did the draft idea though

by BamBam Wed 13 Dec - 10:48

Was going to knock up a page for this weeks games, but we don't have a Euro cup drawn do we?

Fixture list has the Euro games in it https://www.606v2.com/t66568-fixture-list

by Sgt_Pooly Wed 13 Dec - 10:52

Not sure about the draft idea.

There's been a few deals, guess we need everybody to be a bit more active in that regard. It's tougher to deal now as previously mentioned, people are scared to lose out.

by BamBam Wed 13 Dec - 11:11

Just an idea to shake it up a bit, otherwise I think we'll lose interest

by Sgt_Pooly Wed 13 Dec - 11:15

The extra foreigns and budgets should help. I think sides need to get a few more in before any real dealing starts.

People generally don't want to trade a foreign player just after they get him.

by BamBam Wed 13 Dec - 11:20

Agreed, thats why I thought the draft would get the non star players moving around a bit

by Steven_Sharks Thu 14 Dec - 11:48

I think we need to divvy out responsibility for sections of the game first and foremost. Then think about a way to spice up squads.

Flux is clearly struggling for time so we should take on some responsibility each.

Domestic bids, Releases, budgets can be done by those with time.

I am happy to do a match thread this week but wouldn't know what the Euro Fixtures would be? Could anyone help out with who is playing who?

by BamBam Thu 14 Dec - 12:19

Happy to maintain budgets again

I PM'd Flux about the Euro games, should we consider just scrapping Europe for this season? Gives us time to catch up, and I'm not sure how much we'd get from a set of Euro games over Christmas, especially given we haven't got a draw

If we want to do Europe this year, I would imagine the fixtures would just be as real life, given that we haven't got previous season league placings to base them on

by Fluxy Thu 14 Dec - 13:19

Sorry lads, was stuck in France, will catch up again this afternoon.

I was thinking of giving us a week of this week, as Bam as mentioned about scrapping/doing a revised Euro competition in the New Year.

by Sgt_Pooly Thu 14 Dec - 14:59

I'm happy to take on something. Can do match threads few times a month without much problem.

by ChequeredJersey Fri 15 Dec - 14:08

I don’t have a lot of time but will happily take on one of the sections

by Fluxy Fri 15 Dec - 15:29

The European Homepage is up.
What I am proposing is that we only play each side in the real world pools once. To maintain the European competition. The fixtures have been added to the fixture list.

Will get the results up for this week, and we can talk about what I can pass on to others, to help out.

by stnick88 Fri 15 Dec - 16:43

at neutral grounds to make it fair?

Absolutely

by Fluxy Thu 21 Dec - 11:53

All of the European teams have been updated

by Fluxy Thu 21 Dec - 14:29

League table updated

by Fluxy Fri 22 Dec - 10:48

A little bit of Christmas cheer will be coming later today, stay tuned..

by Fluxy Fri 22 Dec - 16:38

So then..

1. The European games are live and need predictions. I shall tot these up on the 27th/28th, so plenty of time hopefully..!
2. Round Five AP thread is already up and ready to go, although you may want to check here before putting a side in... Run

3. As it is the season of festive cheer, you have all received a £10m bonus to your budgets, this is with a view to a 'mini' foreign transfer window.
4. Finally, the 'mini' foreign transfer window will work as it has done in the past (blind bids etc), however, as we have all received a few injuries you are only looking for a particular calibre of player. This window, open from 0900, Friday 29th December, will allow you to sign any uncapped player, or a player with 5 caps or fewer. The window will close on Friday 5th January at 1700. So get your thinking caps on..

Otherwise, have a good Christmas everyone, I shall be on periodically! Aviva Premiership - The Reset - Homepage - Page 5 3845856932

Not been on much lads, will try and play catch up now on the train.

by pullthestrings Sat 23 Dec - 11:54

What do we reckon guys? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/42433206

Merry Xmas everyone!

by Fluxy Sat 23 Dec - 12:44

I actually put in the exact same side!

I couldn’t really make a case for anyone else

by Sgt_Pooly Sun 24 Dec - 13:44

Merry Christmas lads

by Fluxy Wed 27 Dec - 15:59

Only got four sets of Predictions in for the Euros, will keep them open until Friday lunchtime , to get a good set in.

by Fluxy Fri 29 Dec - 10:53

Morning gents,

Don't forget to get your predos in before midday, and will keep the weekend's thread for next round of games open until midday, if you need to tweak your side tactics.

Also, there is a foreign window open at the moment, just look at my message a few days ago.. thumbsup

by Driver Fri 29 Dec - 12:37

I won't be able to predict Fluxy sorry.

Gary Graham called up to England squad also.

by Fluxy Fri 29 Dec - 13:10

No worries Driver

Graham has only been called into a training squad, no major news there I think.

by Sgt_Pooly Fri 29 Dec - 14:35

Some jump for the lad. He's reminded me a bit of a younger Haskell, lots of powerful tackling and carrying.

I'll struggle a little for predos. In London for the next 4 or 5 days on phone.

by Fluxy Sat 30 Dec - 16:16

Just about to update things..

Anyone watching Saints vs Quins? M Smith looking rather at home at HQ
