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

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.

You've got to drop Phillips Prop, he was bad last week and even worse this week.

You expect his service to be poor but he's offered nothing today.

It's Phillips' reaction is worse, he is just a man sausage! Williams a bit late at trying to get under the ball though.

Poor wales performance all round, need to look at some changes that may be controversial to some

Good all round Ireland performance, they just bossed the game. Wales were as poor as I've seen them for years.

Bigger & JD back in next week I reckon, Lydiate to bench and Tips in.

Agreed, I also hope Gatland looks at Rhodri Jones at Loosehead and Samson Lee at tighthead even if both are bench options. Jones is predominantly a 1 for Scarlets so why he's a replacement tighthead for Wales I don't understand.

I would like to see Webb given a start just to give Phillips a kick up the butt and make him realise he can't win games with constant aggro.

Great break May, he's looked impressive.

Still not seeing the fascination with Nowell, he looks a bit out of sorts in a pretty decent back line.

Not a bad game, definitely improving every game - Wood, Vunipola and Hartley were very good today. Nowell and May looked good too.

Would definitely look at changing the subs bench though, Youngs shouldn't be there if he can't throw in, no matter how good he is at carrying and hitting rucks.

Agree with you. If he could throw he'd be good, but when you have Rob Webber there who has really got Bath's lineout working very well you've got to have him.

I've championed Youngs for a long time but his throwing has got worse.

He fluked 1 out of 4 throws, the others were nowhere near.

My summary would be

A top win away at a place we struggle with poor conditions.

Scotland are poor and coached by a clown. Richie Gray was a good lion 6 months ago and does not get picked. Kelly Brown should be a cert also.

However England played the right game and all did well. 36 and Burrell worked well and defended which is not their strong point.

Care and Farrell decent. Goal kicking was impossible with that pitch.

Billy V wood launch and lawes were great and may looked like he has the X factor and gives a creative edge.

May does 100m in 10.66 which is insane.

Brown imperious as ever but agree bench options all wrong.

Brian Moore mentioned today what I said last week about Lee
Mears helping out as England lineout coach.


When we asked him how it was going he said the most difficult part was " teaching lawes and Tom Youngs to count"

After today it looks like lawes has mastered it and Youngs needs an abacus

Agree with who said webber needs to come in. Been outstanding all year and bath line out decent. A bear around pitch so ideal sub.

Hartley after Bdp and Strauss is battling Moore for 3rd best hooker in world. Absolutely flawless in set piece and great around park.

Care excellent but needs some kick work. Italy a bigger challenge than Scotland who are in free fall.

Have tickets for Ireland and Wales games.

Fancy Ireland or Wales may turn over France.

Ireland and Wales will be tough at home. Hope we have no scars from last year in Cardiff

Hartley has really come through now, Lancaster telling him he had one more chance after his last ban seems to have had a huge impact. Giving Lawes more responsibility in the lineout also seems to have benefited his game.

Scotland are such a bad team, if they finish above Italy I'd be absolutely amazed.

WHen Farrell first came through he had a good attacking game - he's definitely benefited from Sarries playing a more expansive game.

It was good to see that Lancaster seemed to learn his lesson from the week before and making the substitutes at better times - now hopefully he will get some good impact backs on the bench next game!

Farrell has always had the ability in there, has just struggled to express himself out there. He is also benefitting from Danny Care's excellent form, as he is getting good service and Care is tying in defenders giving Farrell more time.

He's done a good impression of hiding it!

Farrell just needs to back himself. He's still odd kicking choices but certainly improving, I'd like to Ford given a half against Italy.

Anybody fancy a deal?

Ford should definitely be given a go - the one thing I don't think Lancaster thinks about is that if Farrell gets injured he isn't blooding any other no10s, not giving anyone a chance from the bench either. Farrell is really abrasive too, so if anyone is going to get injured or suspended as a flyhalf it will be him.

200% agree Chris. If we get Faz injured there is no plan B. Think he needs to look at the same for hooker and full back. You can't start Youngs and Goode

Youngs shouldnt be in the squad until he fixes his throwing. Seemed like he made some good strides forward last year, but put him in a pressure situation and he struggles.

I wouldn't have Goode or Dickon on the bench, both talented players but for international level you can't just have a good all round game you need to have something that makes you stand out. I'm sure Foden would have had the bench spot if he wasn't injured.

Bit of a concern with Ben Youngs, read an article saying he was carrying too much weight and he wasnt allowed to fully recover from injury - I'd still have him on the bench though.

Ben Youngs has been awful this year. He is in a rut. His play against wuss on Friday was laughable.

Maybe he needs to move club or something. Just not progressed since that game against Australia. An unfulfilled talent so far

I would rather he sorted himself out and delivered on his talent which hinted at world class. I think picking him will not help him at the moment.

Dickson is ok but not a world beater. Should have wiggles on the bench

I don't think Tigers have the best coaching set up to bring backs through, unless you are Tuilagi! Look at how well Ford has done since leaving.

Youngs has been poor, but can offer a good cameo from the bench - I'd start Dickson ahead of Youngs, but just don't see what Dickson brings off the bench if we are having to chase a game.

Again Wasps biased but I'd prefer to see Simpson given a go as an impact sub - wont happen though as England coaches clearly rate others higer.

Good to see dan Robson in the Saxons. He has potential to be an England player. Great kicking game and serious turn of speed.

One of Gloucesters only good performers this year

Never heard of him flux but you can tell he is a proper player. who does he play for ?


Fofana or Conrad smith ?
Who do you think is the best.

For me I prefer to watch fofana but in a team I would probably have smith for his all round game. Fofana is magic to watch

I wouldn't even have Simpson in the Saxons Chris, I think he's a dreadful scrum half, barely AP class.

Furno plays for Biarritz mate, decent line out operator not quite a caller though.

Poolys new signing looks like he will have to have a few weeks off.


He was unlucky as retaliation is natural when butted but he did give a big butt back. Always a red
