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

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.

Should be an exciting game Pete - hoping Slade and Daly put in big performances, an open game could really suit their styles. England team is v young in the pack.
Amazed that McGrath and Madigan escaped a citing from the BaaBaas game, a knee to the back and a stamp!

I always find Ba's game disappointing but at least some of the lads have something to play for.
Cipriani, Daly and Wade in the same backline should make interesting viewing (in defence & attack).

Keen to see how my own Tommy Taylor gets on. Was great last year and looked decent in this game last summer but did his cruciate in and missed a big chunk of this season because of it

Re: Season 7 Homepage VIII
There's a lot of good hookers coming through in George, LCD, Taylor, Haywood.
I read SL saying Hartley might not get back in the England squad with the lads coming through and his constant disciplinary issues.

That's still a team that beat a fairly strong Ireland team though.
Wasps boys playing well, Slade and Daly both putting their hands up - Not sure how Wade missed out on the 50 man squad.

Re: Season 7 Homepage VIII
Bristol choked but I think glos outplayed by a smarter side.
We need to build on what we have. The emergence of
Moriarty is great news. We also have George evans and ben Morgan to
Come back so strong at 8. We missed may and Kvesic today and our problems lie in our depth.
Our first 15 is very good but behind that we are bare
we need decent reserve front row as we play our front row players too much generally.
We also need cover at 9 desperately with robson off. Same with fb and the centres

Re: Season 7 Homepage VIII
After the way he played on Sunday I think he'd put himself in the squad, on his kicking alone and the impact he could bring from the bench.
Cipriani actually a nice bloke, just seems to completely lack common sense.
Definitely opens the door for Slade and Daly - the more I see of Slade the more he looks like he could fit into the no12 shirt, just seems a very classy, intelligent player. WC could be a bit early though.

I think long term Slade can be the 12 England needs, but not the 12 they need right now as he isn't quite ready. Definitely has the skills to do so, but perhaps just needs a year or so to bulk out and just mature, as he is still young.

Re: Season 7 Homepage VIII
I think they will go Ford, Barritt, Joseph and use Barritt as the guy who holds it all together and keeps the defensive line.
With Cips most likely out, Slade could well be the guy who covers the 3rd no10 spot (its only him and Myler now isn't it?).
Lancaster said that there were 6 spots up for grabs, wonder what positions they'd be.

If he's been bailed it will because his breath sample was only just over so blood will have been sent off to be analysed as it's more accurate.
We don't take people down the station as a procedure following a minor accident.

Good chat on Rugby tonight about how George could have leapfrogged into the England 23 after his playoff performances. They were united that LCD darts are not up standard which I've been saying for a while.

He's gotten very lucky there.
I think its a case of him being their best winger by a long shot and knowing he would miss the WC if they had.
They've left Teddy Thomas and Camille Lopez out the WC squad. Strange.
