Fantasy Super Rugby
-
My selection of loose forwards was my biggest downfall (outside of not picking DMac as captain - rookie error) to shoehorn in expensive players elsewhere. So my position in the bottom third is meeting expectations.

@No-Quarter yeah that's what I tried to do, swap em out and wait...guess you could sell the tahs now, or ditch a couple of expensive poor performers, buy a couple of the cheap top performers from the weekend, people load up on them in the week, thier value increases and then swap them for who you really want once teams are.named??

Yeah that's true, with unlimited transfers you can try and make money in the meantime before locking in your final team

One expensive poor performer I'll sell is Blackadder. I threw up in my mouth a little when I chose him, but I figured he'd score plenty of points from all the ineffectual tackles he makes. But then he only got 1 point per tackle and did sweet F all else.

78 minutes, both sides of the ball for 16 miserable points.

Looks to me like there's no such thing as "making money".
I left $20M in the bank the first week - nek week- I get the same budget as everybody else.
I strongly suspect the "prices" of players aren't going to change mid-week. Or rather - that "owning" any player during a week - is not of any help whatsoever.
It's just a very simplistic "you've got 100 coins every week, 'buy' 15 players with those coins, as we set pretty arbitrary prices for them based on their reputation for starters, then form each week"
I'm curious to see - if one chooses 15 players with a total of "$99M" one week - then they all have a blinder - and are ranked to a total of 200 $ next week... could one transfer one out, even for a lower 'priced' player - when the total budget would still be over $100? Can you just leave the team as-is? What, how, why... maybe the rules explain it - but I fucking doubt it... glancing at their "FAQ's" - like any "FAQ's" - it should be re-labelled "FAQ's for idiots". -
First round of Fantasy Super Rugby done and dusted. Congrats to RacingCarrot who leads the pack with 726 points. Like a few us he thankfully had Dmac as captain who came up trumps with 208 points.
The current top ten for our league is below. Comment on where you are sitting after round 1.
Some interesting decisions for next week with Tahs on a bye as their props seem obvious weekly picks and Suaalii looking the best value midfielder.

Just joining now. I know, after the 1st round. But I wanted to make it harder on myself
But anyway, I can't see the league when I go to join league... is it under public leagues? -

I just did, wouldn't be any other reason to complain.

Picking players that are likely to stay on the field longer is all part of the selection process. Big points can be lost by picking the wrong guy.

No, the selection process is picking players likely to score the most points.

@Bones well if they score enough in 60 mins, who's to say they wouldn't lose points in the last quarter...

Obviously true, but the longer they stay on the field the more chance they have to score points also, unless they're Scott Barrett. Remember you get an extra point per player if they stay on the field for longer than 60 mins.

Taniwha already covered that.
