Welcome to Season 6 of the Aviva Premiership fantasy 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 (SJE) 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 its 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 match day 23'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 an academy squad of 20 players.  Players who are in the academy must be born on or after 1st September 1991.

Any player, who is at any Premiership club in real life, either in their senior, academy or AASE squads, can be bid for on the domestic bidding page.  Players who are at your own club in real life and are coming through the academy system must be bid for if you want them in your own academy.

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 5 players from the Championship or the National Leagues.  These players must be bid for on the Domestic Transfer Bidding page, and each bid will be considered by me on its 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.

    There will be a summer foreign transfer window, which will run as follows.

    Structured Window

    No cash will be used and each team will get effectively free transfers by way of a draft, which will run 12th, 11th, 10th …… 1st, 12th, 11th,10th… 1st place side.  This will run from 10th June 2013 until all teams have had their two picks. 

    Open Window

    Open transfer window, teams have unlimited bids provided they have the financial resources to cover them.  Teams may only bid for one player at a time.


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

All released players will be deemed to have joined a Championship side and can be bid for on the Domestic Transfer Bidding page.
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 match thread will be put up every Monday.  Home teams must be named by midnight on Tuesday.  Away teams must be named by midnight on Wednesday.  Both teams must provide tactics by midnight on Thursday.  Predictions will be open from 00:01 hours on Friday and remain open until 20:00 hours on Saturday.  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.

Managers are asked to provide detail as to why they have predicted a result.  To be considered a descriptive prediction this must be a full 3 lines long when entered into the text box.  If you are not providing a descriptive prediction you will be restricted to predicting a 1 point win either way.
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 match day 23, and at least 4 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.

£2m 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

Losing Semi Finalist - £1 million each

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.

Going forward eventually I would love us to have a combo of Eastmond and Manu in midfield. Both can play of Faz's supply of ball and offer something similar to fofana and bast in terms of game breaking.

It would be an interesting balance but I'd like us to stick with players and give them a go.

Seen as it was 36/Burrell's first game I thought they were excellent as a combo, they'll get better through the 6N.

When Manu comes back SL will have to decide who to drop out if the two.

Do like Eastmond, can't see him making it though as a no12 due to his size in a position where he would be up against some huge players - could see guys like Roberts, de Villiers and Nonu making a lot of yards against him.

Quite a few reports are saying that the RFU are wanting to get Sam Burgess frm rugby league to cover that position as there just arent the players coming through.

Could be a real tight 6N.

Ireland, France and England look strong so far. Hard to judge Wales but any of 4 could win this season.

7.Chris Robshaw

8.Billy Vunipola

Hard to leave out a few players , thought Dunbar was best Scottish player today. Made his hits , tried to play a bit and give them a bit more in the backs than they have had in recent years.

If May is fit to play, I'd I would move him in to 13 and Burrell in to 12 this week and stick either Ashton or Watson on the wing. If he's not fit, I'd move Burrell to 12 and play Daly at 13.

I fundamentally disagree with Mat on who lost us the game. For me the responsibility lies firmly with Lancaster and his absolutely clueless substitutions.

I didn't think Goode had a bad game to be honest , spoilt Frances kicking game as he read everything besides the 2nd try.

I'd like too see Daly involved in the 23 next week. But he was pretty average for Saxons the other night.

I'd of kept Nowell on and bought Barritt on for Billy Twelvetrees if anyone. 

Plus note Chris Robshaw was fantastic yesterday.

Goode can't be blamed for the loss.

There were numerous individual errors that cost us points. Nowell had an absolute mare first half and the scrum took a pounding all game.

Not far off what I'd go for. I'd have Hartley and Mas in the front row though, and possibly Pape for AWJ, and definitely Care over Murray.

Defensively Goode was at fault for two tries (missed a tackle/got bumped off and then didnt smash Flickou), if Ashton had made the same mistakes everyone would be up in arms.

Aside from that I thought he read the game very well - very intelligent player, but for international rugby isn't fast enough or physical enough. A shame really.

Lancaster cost us the game though, awful backs on the bench and clueless substitutions. Can't understand why you take off players who are playing well unless they are injured or can't give anything more to a game.

Fair points.

I thought Care was hit and miss, Dickson dreadful! Murray was probably the steadiest across the board.

Thought about Mas but Ross anchored the Ireland scrum really well (although against weaker opp). I thought Cole got hammered in the scrum all game.

I don't think Cole has been great in the scrum all season if I am honest. I am a massive fan of his, and his work at the breakdown is excellent, but he got schooled by Domingo (again!!!).

So Goode who was tied up is blamed for Burrell stepping in from the wing giving Fickou all the time in the world had nothing to do with that try?

I thought Care was excellent. He gave us tempo and and always looked a threat. Taking him off when we were on top and bringing on Dickson was an absolutely ridiculous decision, as was bring off Vunipola. Had we wanted Morgan on for his carrying then take off one of Wood or Robshaw and move Billy to 6. We could have stayed on the front foot if he had and taken the game away from them.

Care certainly had his good points, one of his better games for sure.

I think Billy was hanging to be fair, Morgan played well and Robshaw/Wood tackle more. I can see that sub and why.

I take the point about Robshaw/Wood being better defensively, but if we stay on thte front foot and make France make the tackles then surely has to be better than keeping tacklers on.

Barritt for Nowell was another shocker. Let's finish up with 3 inside centres and full backs as our outside backs! Mental!!!

Driver as a last defender you always smash the guy carrying the ball, if he passes it then you've done all you can to stop the try. Look at the way Kearney defends for Ireland, or the way Brown does for us.

Burrell on the wing would always get gassed or pulled out of position - if Flickou had been brought on earlier I think he would have struggled defensively playing at 13 too.

Trinder was meant to have played v well against Wasps yesterday - shame he got injured at the wrong time earlier this season.

Feck off Chris Lol! Barritt had the ball carrier, Plus if i found myself in a 2 on 1 i'd track backwards force him to pace at the last second then hit the last man into touch and get the lineout.

That's why your a forward Driver  Rolling Eyes

When you are that close to the line you just smash the ball carrier or try and put him off his pass - Goode wouldnt have got to the other Frenchman if the pass had been made.

I do rate Goode, but he got that call wrong - wasn't helped by the rest of his defence though!
