Welcome to Season 7 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 (SJE) 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 1992. 

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 National League 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.

    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.

    The window will open from the 9th of June but only to those sides that finish 8th and below at first. They will have a week to make one signing each before the window is open to all.     

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 National League 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 European Rugby Champions Cup, European Rugby 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. Failure to meet these deadlines is punishable by the addition of three match points to the oppositions final score, unless both sides fail to do so. Both teams must provide tactics by midnight on Thursday. Predictions will be open from 00:01 hours on Friday and remain open until 15:00 hours on Sunday. 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. 
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:-

For domestic competition at least 8 England qualified players in your match day 23, and at least 4 of those must be in your starting XV.

For European competition at least 8 England qualified players in your match day 23, and at least 6 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 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.
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 upto a maximum of £5m per fine.

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 (SJE) will step in and players from within your squad will be released for the relevant financial compensation (foreign transfer value) in order to bring your budget back above minus £10 million.

I'm just saying i'd like to see us go for the adventure a bit more.

Cipriani impressed me today when he came on. Really massive boot!

Yarde will improve now that he's at Quins - not sure why but I've never been a fan of his, doesn't seem to have the best awareness, whether that is positionally in defence or bringing others into the game.

I just dont see what our attacking game is with our backline, ever since Lancaster has been in charge I don't see what structures he is playing, or what his tactics are - it seems like give it to Tuilagi and hope he gets us over the gainline.

None of Twelvetrees, Eastmond or Burrell are going to take us forward - for me we've either got to hope that Burgess crosses codes perfectly and plays at no12 as he's a beast of a player or that Deveto comes good next season.

Just come back from Gloucester quays for a meal with my parents. Saw evans knight and a couple of other glos squad players on a stag. Mills to quins fallen through and confirmed wuss player. Thought he would have been knocking England door at 12.

Devoto is my big hope along with hill. 12 such a key position

It's the lack of accuracy that is annoying. We get chances and space but don't finish them. If
We go a few behind I don't fancy us to come back. Contrast that with SA today

Who is it
About driver ? Is it
Dean Ryan or Ryan giggs?

Dean Ryan is an interesting character. Spent quite a bit of time chatting to him when he was glos coach. We played squash at the same place and he always had the court after me.

Very intense,driven and a man of values. Think his military background is what made him that way

Think these are fair and match my views we have debates re wings.

A lot of the chaps looked tired which is understandable particularly the young lads like billy v and launch.

Rewatching the game on
My own without a whining baby , wife and mental dog and have to say woodcock and franks went well today.

Woodcock so important to NZ and today really rolled back the years.
Really got their maul working and immaculate in set piece and loose.
One of the greatest loosehead of all time.

Team of the tests would be different for me. Couldn't really get in any Irish/Scots due to opposition.

Fardy, White, Foley, Folau had a great series against the French.

Going off these tests you would not have cruden. He
Was good yesterday but not had a great series.
Parling would come in for consideration as he had a decent series. Same with Aaron smith he was fantastic yesterday but not at his brilliant best in the other games.

Think I would have Kaino over lydiate

Foley had a great series against a poor French outfit. Very clever player and works really well with toomua Kurindrani and folau. Most balanced Aussie backline for a while

If Skelton can shed some weight and get close to fitness he's going to be world class. He's a real brute but so so lazy/unfit.

Skelton is a real talent but is carrying some timber. He was gone at 50 but he really helps the Aussie scrum and is some carrier. A great talent.

Its great, I went out with a group of friends and we sailed/cruised around some of the islands. That way you can get to visit places like Hvar and Vis, which are stunning.

There's a really good one on Wiki prop, but I can't find it at the moment - they update it every day. They've got links to Rabo Direct and Top14 too on them.

Glad to see Taumalolo going back to sign for the Chiefs, looked great for them but went to the wrong team in France. French league is all wrong with all the foreign imports, exactly the same as the football for us and wonder why our national team struggles!

He couldn't hack it in the French league as they put a lot of emphasis on the scrum and he's a dreadful scrummager.

Hes basically just a try scoring prop like halani aulika but not as good in the scrum. Suits super rugby and thats his limit.

Shows how desperate they are. Meyer must have missed the U20 final or he realises he's only playing Scotland and the U20 Boks full team could probably beat them.

He misses the 3 friendlies and 2 of the rabo games.
 
 
Think this is a good explaination for Pollard's inclusion, why not give him experience now as he'll guarantee get a big boost from it:
 
"Our plans had always been to try a few new combinations this week against Scotland and I'm looking forward to see the guys grab their opportunities."


Meyer said Pollard had always been part of his plans for the Incoming Series, but that his selection as SA U20 captain meant he could only join the squad this week.


"Handré is a very talented player and has a big opportunity this week, but he'll have Fourie du Preez's experience next to him, while he's played a lot with Jan Serfontein before," added Meyer.


"It's great to have the current and a former World Junior Player of the Year in the same back-line.

Selected above boschoff. He is the best u 20 player in the world and has been tipped to be a Bok since he was about 12 so
Would take the view of people who are proper players and coaches


Last people who had hype like this about them were JOC and Julian Savea

Pollard was far from best player in U20 champ, it was a bizarre call really.
