Welcome to Season 5 of the Aviva Premiership fantasty rugby game. Below are the rules of the game which must be adhered to. If there are any situations that arise in the course of the game which are not covered by the rules, a final decision will be made by the RFU (Ozzy3213) as to how the situation will be resolved.
Senior Squads wrote:
The maximum squad size is 40 senior players. If a team has more than 40 players in their squad then they will be fined £1 million per player over the permitted amounts per day for the first seven days. If after 7 consecutive days a team still has more than the permitted number of players then the team will be fined £2 million per player per day, and fined 1 league point per player per day for the next seven days. If after this time a team still has more than the permitted number of players in their squad, the RFU (me) will remove players at it’s discretion to bring them back under the permitted numbers. There will be no right of appeal to players being removed.
Be aware that all tier one international matches which are played during the season will count in the game, and players selected in the matchday 22's for those matches will not be eligible to play for their clubs on that weekend, therefore you must give due consideration to the make up of your squad.
Academy Rules wrote:
Each team will be allowed to have a listed senior academy squad of 20 players. Players who are in the senior academy must be under 22 years of age as of 1st September 2012 (therefore must have been born on or after 1st Septmber 1990). Players who are under the age of 20 (so born after 1st September 1992) AND are in the academy of the club that you are managing in real life, DO NOT need to be listed as senior academy players as part of your 20, but are available to you in this game and cannot be poached by other clubs without paying you a fee.
Should a player not listed in your 20 senior academy players, but part of the clubs academy in real life move clubs in real life, then you will have first option of promoting him to your listed senior academy. If you choose not to take this option he will become property of the club that he moves to in real life in this game.
Transfers wrote:
- Domestic (other AP Teams)
Each team has a budget to use in the purchase of players. Domestic transfers between AP clubs, regardless of nationality of player, should be negotiated between the respective managers, and then confirmed on the Domestic Transfer Confirmation Page.- Domestic (Championship and below)
Each team may during the season purchase no more than 3 players from the Championship or the National Leagues. These players must be bid for on the Championship/National League bidding page, and each bid will be considered by me on it's own merits before being accepted or rejected. No bid will be accepted until a minimum of 24 hours has elapsed from the time the bid was made, in order to afford other managers the opportunity to make a counter bid.- Foreign
To make a foreign transfer (i.e from any club outside of the AP, regardless of whether the player is English) a bid should be made on the Foreign Transfers Page, which will be considered by me against the posted guidelines for purchase prices before being accepted or rejected. No bid will be accepted until a minimum of 24 hours has elapsed from the time the bid was made, in order to afford other managers the opportunity to make a counter bid.
Foreign transfers will unlimited during the off season and 2 during the season. The exact dates of the two transfer windows during the season is to be confirmed.
Player Releases wrote:
Managers may choose to release players from their clubs, for which they will be offered compensation
Compensation will be paid as follows
£2 million – current international (must have played international rugby in the previous 12 months)
£1.5 million – former international
£1m – top flight experience
£0.5m – other
If a released player plays in real life for a team outside of this game he will be deemed to have returned to that team. If not then he will be deemed to have signed for a Championship side. If another manager wants to pick a released player up, they will have to bid for him in the same way as for a foreign or Championship/National League player.
Retirements wrote:
There will be no compensation for retiring players. Should a player who retires decide to come out of retirement and play again, then he will automatically go back to the club who he was playing for in the game when he retired.
Fixtures wrote:
There will be 22 Aviva Premiership games per season, plus the play offs. There will also be Heineken Cup, Amlin Challenge Cup and Anglo Welsh Cup matches. These games will take place once a week. A thread will be put up for managers to name their teams on Thursdays, then on Fridays, managers will post the scores that they think will happen from these games (apart from games in which they are involved). An average of all predictions will be taken, and then 0.5 points added to each teams score for each prediction that had them as the winner, and that will then be the final score.
Teams wrote:
When naming your team, not only should you put the starting XV and replacements, but also tactics that your team will employ. Results will be affected by the tactics described.
In addition, each team must have the following:-
At least 10 England qualified players in your matchday 23, and at least 5 of those must be in your starting XV.
At least 2 props and 1 hooker on the bench.
All players must be eligible (not injured or banned).
Failure to comply with these rules will result in forfeiting the match and a 1 league point deduction.
If you fail to submit a team for a match, then the other team will be automatically awarded a 30-0 bonus point win. If both teams fail to submit a team, then it will be scored as a 0-0 draw.
Injuries and Suspensions wrote:
Injuries in this game do NOT reflect real life, they will be generated by me.
Players banned in real life will be ineligible for selection in this game for the duration of the ban.
Inclusion of injured/banned players will result in them being replaced by players on the bench, and the bench not having eight players, which may result in punishment if it concerns the front-row.
Punishment for fielding an ineligible player will be loss of one match point for a first offence, two for a second offence and so on.
Financial Rewards wrote:
There will be no rewards for the result of an individual match, instead the managers will receive cash for predicting.
£1.5m for descriptive predictions
£0.25m for scores on the doors predictions
If you fail to predict without first advising me that you are unable to do so that week, you will be fined £1m for a first offence, £2m for a second offence, £3m for a third offence etc.
AP finishing positions.
Champions: 8m
Runners Up: 6m
Playoff Semi Finalist Losers: 5m
5th: 4m
6th: 3.5m
7th: 3m
8th: 2.5m
9th: 2m
10th: 1.5m
11th: 1m

Heineken Cup
Losing Quarter Finalists - £2 million each
Losing Semi Finalists - £3 million each

Losing Semi Finalists - £2 million each
Runners Up - £3 million

If your budgets falls below minus £10 million for any reason, the administrators (ozzy3213) will step in and players from within your squad will be released for the relevant financial compensation in order to bring your budget back above minus £10 million.

I'd say thats comfortably a stronger team than Welsh.
But not as good as Sale or Irish.
Definitely would of been in the relegation battle with Welsh, Sale and Irish.

Strong rumours Cooper not in the Oz squad, and until Beale is back JOC likely to be their 10.

Totally agree Nick.
On paper Irish & Sale are stronger. It's a stronger Falcons team than we went down with and we're player better as a team. There's one or two Welsh players than would get into out team currently.
We def need some new players to compete. I'm expecting a TH, Lock, backrow, 10, centre, wing.

If Steve see's this he'll go crazy.
I did say it though, Cooper needs to be on fire to be included and he isn't. He's been a very bad boy.

He's started the season well, but nothing more than that. Pepperred with errors and crazy decisions. Always been a huge fan though...
Oz seem to be struggling in their backs. Good news for the lions.

He has been much better than JOC and Beale though. He and Genia such a challenge for any defence.
Strange how Beale still gets a look in although he could attempt to knock anyone out at any stage

Cooper slagged of the Aus management and the players so it's going to take more for him to get back in, if he ever does.
We know what Beale/JOC can do on the Int stage, they'll still be a threat.
JOC has been in good form but at 15.

There's one thing saying it I guess.
Aus be a threat whoever starts at 10, Cooper/JOC/Beale/Barnes.

Barnes to a lesser extent to the other 3 I think. Much better at 12.

Re: Homepage
I think they will go Barnes 12 but interchanging to 10. JOC can't play ten his tactical kicking not up to it.
There were rumours a month ago that one of Beale cooper and JOC would miss out due to their antics off pitch. Call them the 3 musketeers.
I am sure JOC was the 3rd one who has a bit of a rep although It may have been ioane

JOC played 10 when Aus beat Wales in a series, he'd be fine as would Barnes.
10. JOC 12. Barnes 13. AAC
Would work well

9. Genia
10. Cooper
11. Ioane
12. Barnes
13. AAC
14. JOC
15. Mogg
Best case scenario (realistically that Deans might pick)

11. Ioane
12. McCabe
13. Horne
14. JOC
15. Beale

Must admit both sides look good to me.
Not a big fan of Horne, AAC every time at 13 but he's looked ok this year.

Quote from the great Tim Horan
I can't believe Quade Cooper is not in the best 30 man Wallaby squad. Would be my 2nd player picked after Genia.

You're not happy are you lol
On form and with no discipline issues he'd be in. But....he's not playing that well and he slagged off the bloke who picks the team.
He's just a douche

He is playing better than the other 10's picked. That us clear as day.
Discipline issues not the issue otherwise Beale out as well.

JOC is playing 10 this weekend I think.
Hard to judge the Rebels 10's as the pack is so poor.

Think it suits us both. Mayhew clearly not favoured by Richards but was good for us and suits Smiths type of player. Lawson a solid and experienced performer so will be good for you.
That is good news for Glos, bad news for Kvesic as Qera should keep him out of the team as he is a better player.
Maybe its because he knows he is leaving but Kvesics form has tailed off. When I saw him at Irish he got dominated by Treviranus.

The Lawson signing is a good one in the sense that he's better than the hookers we currently have.
Still in dire need of a short term back up 1 & 3 and a new 10.
Hearing Deano reckons he's never came across a prop as good as Scotty Wilson at his age.
