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.

It's size and his ability at kicking. Ford and eastbound would get killed at int level. Too small a pairing

I have to say I don't really agree with the comments that Eastmond and Burrell are solid kicking options. I would just say that both don't have the experience of being the second option and like was mentioned with Nonu, he had time to learn the position and develop his game managent and tactical kicking.

Honestly think that our best back line for six Nations is Ford - Burrell - JJ
Lancaster and (mainly) Rowntree have done great work with the pack, which can almost pick itself in most situations. But the coaches need to work on a combination in midfield which compliments each other and can feed off the pack which is creating chances and possession for them.

I don't really buy the size debate either. Australia have had a backline which was Genia, Cooper, Giteau and AAC. It solid but was not exactly hulking and renowned for defending a few years ago!

Was just reading that one - think I have 5 of those in my squad. Tempted with a few of those when the transfers open again - the 13 looks good.

The no10 for Toulon is v good but can't get In to their star studded backline.

A very strange ones to watch list. Neglects a lot of the real talents coming through. That Chiefs centre is on my radar he was great in the ITM. Needs to lose a few pounds or just get a bit fitter

Having players like stander in it is odd he has been around for ages.

Players like Teddy Thomas, Ardie Savea, jack Clifford, Damien Mckenzie, Tevita LI, Galarza and a million more SH players

Mowen would be about 20th best 6. He would not make anyone else's list I imagine.

Also how can slimani be on there ? He has done nothing and is way behind Mas Herrera Kepu etc. Not an established international. Charlie fauminia is better than him and he is not great

Would have launch above awj and flip nowhere near for me. Prefer Lawes amongst others

Bang on for 7 and pickles would be nowhere near for me. Too Lazy. Would have maybe 10 other 8s above him

Asides from beast Fluxy has done my list.

Mowen is decent but a way off. It really stood out as odd hence my comment.


That list. Fardy, messam, lydiate, Denton, Harley, stander, croft, wood, robshaw etc all better players and that is off the top of my head.

Disagree, Mowen was one of best 6's in world for Aus and Montpellier miss him hugely when he doesn't play.

I did say not just recent form so very subjective.

I would not have Beast anywhere near as he's not a good scrummager but that's just opinions.

Honest to god, I think England would have someone in the top 3 in most pack positions.


1- Ayerza, Healy, Marler
2- BDP, Strauss, Hartley
3- Franks, Herrera, Wilson
4- Retallick, Etzebeth, Lawes
5- Whitelock,POC, Launchbury if fit (if disallowing, AWJ)
6- Kaino, Alberts, Wood when on form, currently POM at int level
7- McCaw, Louw, Hooper and Robshaw tied (honestly, though I know nobody will agree)
8- Read, Vermeulen, Manoa or Picamoles

I did say not just recent form so very subjective.

I would not have Beast anywhere near as he's not a good scrummager but that's just opinions.

He's a decent player but e wouldn't get in the EPS right now. My honest opinion

I've not seen him playing 7's, but I can imagine that he would be quality at it given his skill set. Really underated player, would love to have him at London Irish!

He always seems to have a good season then either tail off or get injured around Int time

I watched him just before Christmas Pete, he was influential, and playmaking. His step and pace is a dream at sevens, mix in se decent hands and he is lethal

I like nanai williams. He does tail off and is a dry conditions player. He has everything and is a joy to watch

I don't like complaining about refs but he's only reffing one side at the minute. How long was that rolling maul stationary for??? How was Mayhew at fault??

Waller is ruining Brookes, our scrum is really struggling. Line out going well though, think Furno has 3 steals.

Goode is a specimen! Can't believe you would contemplate writing that...

Myler and Foden are looking really good tonight - Ken Pisi has come on a lot as well. Clark deserves an England game with the form he's in as well.

Saints are some team though - they've really upped their game for last season. But saying that Newcastle have improved out of sight in the last 12 months.

Falcons have improved massively.

Remember pooly and a few others wanted Richards out last year. Shows what happens when you have patience. He stabilised last year and has added this year.


Richards is one of the best british coaches. Would love him as england coach. They have seen
Attacking threat. They need some proper
Locks to help their scrum out. Front row gets no support
