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
12th: 0.5m
Heineken Cup
Losing Quarter Finalists - £2 million each
Losing Semi Finalists - £3 million each
Runners Up - £4 million
Champions - £5 million
Amlin Challenge Cup
Losing Quarter Finalists - £1 million each
Losing Semi Finalists - £2 million each
Runners Up - £3 million
Champions - £4 million
Anglo-Welsh Cup

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 dislike saints because they play one way and when it's not working still carry on the same way. You have to be able to adapt and that's why they fall at final hurdle.

Me too but in all honesty all 4 teams above us are stronger. We have some young talent like stookes, moriarty, Reynolds , Clarke , mills etc which will give us depth.
Also burns and Robson etc will be a year more experienced.
Apparently burns was up and down to day but delivererd when it mattered. We struggled up front for a while in terrible conditions. Welsh are good at spoiling and glos need a plan b. aplon has just scored a beauty against Brumbies on the red button.
Come on stormers. Great try

Lol Simpson's box kicking awful - that comment is almost as laughable as some of Rose's decisions today! Thought Simpson was very good today, he's been playing like that all season for us - had a couple of wayward kicks, quite brave to start hitting Lawes' arm like he did!
Best game of rugby I have seen in a long time, so gutting to lose with the last play of the game.
Think Elliot Daly is really improving each game now for us, Foden had a good game, but haven't seen him get shrugged off like that in ages! Though Daly is deceptively big, think he's just a bit shy of 15stone these days, just needs to settle on a position.

Anyone see cheetahs earlier ?
Brussow was immense
And labuschane the other flanker has been the best player in super 15 this year. 24 years old and will be a bok if he plays like he has in first 5 games.
Simply incredible work rate

Re: Homepage
Small, fox and rose are dreadful refs. Said it before that rose
Has been fast tracked based on his ethnicity. They did
The same with wayne Barnes for his youth.
Rose has improved and he was right with
His yellow cards and used them quickly which is good to see. He is clueless on scrum and ruck though.
Actually thought he was ok today but he has
A habit of making game changing decisions for impact and likes to be on show. As the saying goes " best refs are ones you do not notice " you always notice rose.
His penalty against Simpson was laughable and he missed a few knock ons

He's not 12 stone.
Sure he's around 205/210llb mark, which is around 15stone.
You would think Simpson was poor.

Chiefs and Brumbies have been the best 2 sides so far. Crusaders and Stormers starting to find some form now though. Sharks ran in 10 tries against the Rebels earlier!

Marked down for being injured somehow ??
Throw in Genia having a blinder and the end of season run in is looking good.
Just need these bloody injuries to go.
Amazing how hard teams have been hit.
Leicester home and hosed as 1st place in
Regular season.
All to
Play for and almost every team has games of significance left.

On Sa forum schalk burger has been offered insurance pay out to quit but has turned it down. Steve Thompson, vickery and Sheridan did the same so hope
He comes back as well. Have my doubts.
Would be more confident on ferris coming back than burger.
Ferris been out 4 months burger 12 and counting

At half time Tom youngs is having a meltdown at lineout.

Many England players played this week.
It's wrong. Only launchbury out of them
had a decent game.
Parling been ok also. May change second half.

Size and injuries accounted for him.
He makes Rob Cook look steady under the high ball !!
A shed patron described rob cook under the high ball as being the same as Stevie wonder trying to catch the bouquet at a wedding
