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
Runners Up - £2 million
Champions - £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.

Interesting!

Fair play seeing as you were all predicting a 30 point loss I'd be pretty happy with that result, question is whether you make many changes to the team after that performance

Unfortunate result. I had the feeling it would be very close, hence why I put £20 on England to do it!

Glad to see the centre combination that I've wanted to see for England do quite well. Although will be different in the next few weeks if they ever get the chance to continue

Was some performance from England - everyone expected them to get thrashed, I thought we'd lose by 20+

Our set piece was very good, few issues with re starts there - but parling, the whole backrow and tuilagi were fantastic. Just a few silly mistakes that cost us, Youngs knock on that led to Yardes yellow card.

The only change I think I would have made was Dickson for Youngs about five minutes before his small mistake. As Dickson could've upped the intensity for the pack. Johnson is not the impact we needed off the bench.

I meant Wilson, so used to writing Cole.

Wilson needs to work on his hands, he was truly awful today in the loose. Luckily the scrum went well.

I don't like May, he makes odd calls and doesn't seem to have a rugby brain.

He's a good player in attack but is often caught out defensively, I think that is what people have an issue with.

He's a decent prospect, big lad. Needs to work on his hands and defence.

Had to watch on a slight delay, so not been online.  Hell of an effort from England today.  I thought Robshaw was outstanding, and in the scrum Marler and Wilson were top drawer.  Were it not for Wilson having hands like feet, he'd have had a blinder.

Gutted to lose that one, but plenty of positives to take from that performance.

Eastmond worked very well today, was surprised - he could be a perfect foil for Tuilagi, as the latter really seems to cause the AB's problems and you kept seeing Nonu and Smith going straight to him and creating a lot of space for Eastmond to attack.

Lancaster has some huge decisions to make - Parling and Hsakell would be so hard to drop but neither might make the match day 23 with the return of Lawes, Wood and BV. as Attwood for me is a better impact lock to have on the bench,

Tom Youngs might find he loses out to Webber as well, thought he was very good today.

Always been a webber fan. Lancaster said Gray was outstanding in training and that it was a close call for who started today so we have good depth at 2. We have depth in most positions.
Morgan was very good at 8 today

I like what Webber adds to the breakdown. there are some very good hookers around, Hartley, Gray and I've liked the look of Spurling at Sarries, would like Wasps to sign him as he needs game time.

Morgan had a great game, would start him again next week. We could have some impact bench, just a shame Corbs and Mako aren't out there.

Was so harsh on Yarde to get a yellow card - was a game changer that.

Bet a lot of the NZ rugby folk are feeling pretty silly now after having a massive go at England for taking a weakened team out there!

It was a yellow, he took one for the team.  The harshness only comes from the fact that Fekitoa wasn't yellowed for killing the ball on the AB's line shortly before.

Yarde yellow card was a yellow card every day of the week. However by not yellow carding Nonu and Fekitoa it wreaked of inconsistency

In comparison to Nonu getting away with it from 1 yard off the try line was incredibly harsh on him. Could see what Lancaster thought about it to in his interview.
