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.

Think you've got to have Wrigglesworth with Cipriani , you need some method to go with the maverick. If i was too pick somone to replace Twelvetrees at the minute it would Jonny May. He can play from 12-15 and would inject some serious pace into the game late on.

Agree you also have nowell who covers 13 Watson who covers 15 and Cips or ford who could play 12. In an ideal world slade would be bench as he covers 10,12,13 properly. Would offer great balance to bench with JJ covering wing with no well and Watson able to
Drop to 15.

dammit_chris wrote:Both of those points you make though go against your arguments for not including Joe Simpson in the squad Pooly?

Easter isn't a second row specialist and if Parling or Lawes got injured in the first 5 minutes then we'd struggle in that area as I don't think he could last the pace of a full international, and also by saying Cips get dropped and have 36 covering as no10 - if something happened with Ford?

Do see your logic with Easter, but think that means we can now get a bench that includes Simpson Yahoo

Very true Chris it negates the argument of what if you need to control or close out a game.?!!!Imagine 36 at 10 ?????

Easter has made a difference off bench but would rather we had a proper second row sub.

If he is not going to put cips on why pick him.

That was my point, why pick him?

36 could control a game as well as Cips imo so why have Cips on the bench???

Because Ford & Cipriani play loads of rugby at 12.......

How can you say that with a straight face?

Twelvetrees has very little control or
Idea of when to play and when not
To. He comes on against Ireland and basically threw balls on the floor and showed a complete
Lack of composure.

Cipriani plays ten all the time and regularly closes out games for his club and has great game management these days. It's this that got him back in to the squad. It's not even debatable.

Ford and 36 have played very little 12 but you can go for the second 5/8 th model like NZ have always done until nonu. Especially if chasing the game. I agree with mcgeecghan that when we were chasing the game against Ireland we should have bought cips on and had him and ford at 10,12 as we needed to win and change the way we played. Taking off JJ and bringing on 36 was mental.

I'd be ok with either 36 or Cips covering 10, I'd prefer neither but I don't see much in it.

It's about time they done something, absolutley hammered in the 2nd.

Leaves it pretty wide open which is good, 23 points would have been too much. No clear best this year whoever wins it.

They're just not in the game at all, bloody awful.

I think they've had a few rough calls from the ref mind, Payne should have see yellow and some of the breakdown calls have been dubious.

Wish wales had turned it on in the first game and we would have been fine! Been one if the closest last weekends I've known.

Ford is not having a good game with the boot and making calls. Handling is letting us down again, the French looking good in attack. Luckily for us Pilison is having an awful day with the boot.

Awful start, Ford again with the poor kick. I wish Hartley could offload like that!

Jesus, that was a hell of a match. Fluffed chances in the first half cost us and Ford's kicking was from hand was dreadful at times.

We really took it too them in the 2nd and cut a top French defence up time and time again, great spectacle.

Ben Youngs was fantastic, as was Robshaw in the 2nd. Dusatoir was great for the French.

Well done Ireland, they probably deserve it.

I'd have Henshaw, Hogg, Billy V and reckon Ford is pushing Sexton close too

Forgot about Hogg, although he doesn't deserve it after today.

Not been hugely impressed with Ford although he's probably done enough to keep his place. He gets charged down and turned over way too much for my liking but finds space.

Henshaw was ok, none of the Irish backs went that that well bar the half backs I don't think. More to do with the game plan they use I think, backs are mostly used defensivley.
