This is my CURRENT starting 15 Line-Up for Fantasy Rugby at Rugby Magazine tomorrow. Our League is #superrugbyscout in the public league section.
You have to sign a minimum of 28 players and pick 23 to start, 15 like in the pic above score full points and the other 8 only score half points at they are on your bench, unless one of 15 are withdrawn, which trust me does happen, then the replacement will score full points.
Unfortunately I am in a very competitive league and cant give away more than these 15 names for week 1… Sorry!
What I will say is that players starting as locks on the team sheets score as locks in the game despite starting as a flanker above, for eg. Scott Barrett is positioned as a flanker in my team but tomorrow he starts as Lock for the Crusaders and will score points per meter run. Therefore I am loaded with locks and props upfront.
Players that have multiple positions is key to the success of your team as you can only make 1 free transfer per week unlike other formats where you have 3 per week. Every additional transfer in this game costs you 20 points which is a massive hit to take.
There are a lot of big names not starting this week like Eben Etzebeth, Dane Coles, Damian McKensie etc so be sure to pick wisely as they will come back into the teams and with only a transfer a week you are going to have to be wise from the start.
Its going to be a late night is all I know…
