Driver, I need to knock up a rules page tonight. I'd say 30?

Personally, i think it might be better to encourage people to have slightly bigger squads. not having 22s at the mid point of the season was really gash.

Either punishments for not having a 22, or maybe a larger squad cap than 30. Personally think its much better to have average players filling the bench, then none at all.

by Guest Mon 19 Sep 2011, 7:16 pm

Facebook, loads of them.

by Driver Mon 19 Sep 2011, 7:16 pm

Seems fair enough!

Can i add Poff if nobody takes London Wasps?

by CJB Mon 19 Sep 2011, 7:31 pm

Pull any idea, what the budgets will be?

by pullthestrings Mon 19 Sep 2011, 7:41 pm

Will decide that after. But it'll be pretty obvious.. Crusaders on nil, Northampton on 60 or so.

by CJB Mon 19 Sep 2011, 7:43 pm

If I post a few teams will you be able to name a budget...

by Bathite Mon 19 Sep 2011, 7:46 pm

Surely either we all have to see that post or no one does?

by CJB Mon 19 Sep 2011, 7:47 pm

That's fine Bathite

by Bathite Mon 19 Sep 2011, 7:51 pm

Fair enough dude, not having a go, but wanted a level playing field and all that! Budgets will def help me make a decision, i have just written out 8 squads and havn't got a scooby which one I want!

by CJB Mon 19 Sep 2011, 7:53 pm

Is it the wiki squads as well cos some Super 15 teams aren't updated :L

If it is I've made my decision

New South Wales Waratahs

heart

Barnes, Beale, Mitchell

by Driver Mon 19 Sep 2011, 7:54 pm

Isn't Beale a Rebels player?

by Bathite Mon 19 Sep 2011, 7:55 pm

Beale is definately a Rebels player!!

by CJB Mon 19 Sep 2011, 7:57 pm

Depends if we are going on wiki squads? Him + JOC aren't in the Rebels

by Fluxy Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:00 pm

But surely ir states the incoming players

by CJB Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:02 pm

Nope and the waratahs one doesn't state he is leaving

by Bathite Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:03 pm

Well they have definately both played their last games for the 'tahs and the force, don't believe wikipedia!

by pullthestrings Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:03 pm

It'll be on the teams website:
http://www.waratahs.com.au/Waratahs/HSBCWaratahs/SuperRugbySquad.aspx

Waratars will have a budget of £15 mil:OK:

by CJB Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:04 pm

If I don't have Beale can I just have the Reds please

by pullthestrings Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:05 pm

Yep, budget of nil

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:10 pm

I'm not sure that the Bulls are that great, be better having seasons gone squads maybe?

by Bathite Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:13 pm

Pooly - see my comment/discussion with Pull? Fancy a challenge after walking ERL4? I was picked last for the second year in a row, so pull kindly swapped picks, I wondered if you wanted to with me instead? Just a thought

by Bathite Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:14 pm

Fourie du preez to Japan????? According to Bulls wiki, is this true

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:17 pm

What's the sides?!? If the Bulls are in we need a rethink

by Bathite Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:19 pm

You pick who you want until there are 5 from each hemisphere

by Fluxy Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:19 pm

FDP is going to japan lol

by CJB Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:23 pm

Well this is confusing :s

by CJB Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:26 pm

Will Chambers....Reds or Munster..

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:27 pm

Are we sticking with 2011 squads, makes it easier imo

by Bathite Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:29 pm

Got to be 2012 squads surely? Only going to be a few grey areas, all the big transfers are common knowledge

by LukeLovesLuka Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:49 pm

2011 squads makes it easier...

by Bathite Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:50 pm

Yeah, but kind of defeats the object, surely?

On a side note, any of you lot been to NZ? Im planning my trip and need some suggestions, already got Auckland and Queenstown covered, what else?

by CJB Mon 19 Sep 2011, 8:59 pm

Right well Pull dependant on what we do

2011: Waratahs heart

2012: Reds

by pullthestrings Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:08 pm

Why does 2011 squads make it easier? Would mean trying to identify which sides wiki has been updated for and which haven't.

2011/12 squads is simple.. go to that clubs website.

No?

Isn't that simple, know you won't let me on the game but like I said I had plans, and I was checking some teams websites on who to decide to pick.

All the Super 15 squads are messed up, some haven't been updated while some have.

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:18 pm

The problem is with the S15 squads is they haven't been finalised...

Cains have lost Nonu & Hore with no replacements
Brumbies have had a total clear out
etc

Squads for S15 don't have to be finalised till late this year/early next

by Guest Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:25 pm

Pooly is right, some clubs websites are updated while some aren't. Some wikipedia pages are updated aswell while some aren't.

Some Super 15 teams have very small squads at the moment, and it can get all a bit confusing.

If you go with the Bulls 2011 side then Botha and Matfield will have to be included, but they have both left now.

Stormers still have their players listed on wiki, yet it tells you the outs and now includes Schalk Brits, while Louw and Van Der Linde have left.

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:26 pm

Go away.....

by Guest Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:30 pm

I have actually looked at the squads because I was preparing who to pick.

I am only saying that some squads are messed up, to help you guys on what you decide to do with the sitution.

Flaming chill out for goodness sake man.

by pullthestrings Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:32 pm

How will we police 2010/11 squads though? End of season in the respective league? (S15 is later than AP)

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:34 pm

Go away

Personally think end of season 2011 squads

If not might have to sack off the S15 teams and just do NH again

by Guest Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:38 pm

How about shut up and pack telling me what to do for once, you just like to get your own way on this game let me be the best team or I won't play that's pathetic.

I only said it to benefit you lot, on what you decide to do with the Super 15 sitution, I looked at teams yesterday and they are all messed up.

Flaming listen to me for once, because it benefited all you lot.

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:39 pm

Go away

Is that all you can say, I can argue all night about your arrogant ways and how you like to get what you want on this game, you did it last season by wanting to be Toulouse and people sat back and agreed to let you be them. That is way not fair on the others, and in fact it's pathetic.

I have done with you Pooly, because I really don't like you, yes you know your stuff but you ain't half of an aggressive idiot.

by Guest Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:45 pm

carlton5,
If you are not part of the game, leave the others to it.

To the others, you can use the foe button and you wont see his posts (click on his profile, and click 'add to foe list' - on the top right)

Also, please dont throw insults around.

Cheers
YI

by Bathite Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:47 pm

Can't believe I only just found out about the FOE button!!

by Sgt_Pooly Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:48 pm

That's amazing cheers Y I Man......bye Blogs!!!!!

by Guest Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:49 pm

When I say you wont see his post, that is technically correct.

Instead of their post, it says something like:

"This post was made by 'username' who is on your ignore list"

by Guest Mon 19 Sep 2011, 9:50 pm
