Welcome to Season 8 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 23 players.  Players who are in the academy must be born on or after 1st September 1993.

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. Worcester Warriors & London Wasps will receive two additional bids to be used exclusively on academy age players. These players must be bid for on the National League Bidding page, and each bid will be considered by the RFU 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 the RFU 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.
    Player Draft
    Worcester Warriors & London Wasps will participate in a player draft beginning the week of June 22nd. Both sides will be allowed to draft two players each. The draft picks will go as follows; 1. Worcester 2. Wasps 3. Wasps 4. Worcester.

    Round Bidding
    There will be two rounds of bidding. The first window will run the week starting June 29th and the second the week starting July 3rd. All sides will be allowed to sign one player each during the window. These bids are not protected if you do not have the funds in place to bid during the window you will lose the bid.    

    Open Bidding
    From July 13th the foreign market will be open to all bids similar to previous seasons. Due to the world cup the window will remain open till the end of September.

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 20:00 hours on Sunday. Managers will pm 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
Bonuses will be awarded on a scaled basis i.e. 2m for 5 games, 1.6m for 4 games and so on
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

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

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.

Anyone else confused with Lancaster's team for Wales?

Ford dropped for having an average game last week, but keeps faith in the front row who haven't delivered, keeps Parling when Launchbury looked so much better when he came on. Keeps Youngs at no9 and then keeps Barritt who looks woefully short of match practice. Goode on the bench ahead of Nowell and Slade.

If you are going to go with Burgess and Barritt at 12/13 you have next to zero chance of putting the back three into space and our strength in attack was getting the ball to May and Watson...

?!?!?

The midfield is odd, but if you were ever going to play Barritt & Burgess it would be against the Welsh as they go route one through the middle. If Burgess can do one thing it's straight up tackle so Roberts could be kept quiet.

Parling has to stay in for the line out. If any lock was going to be dropped it would be Lawes who's contributed very little pre WC and against Fiji. I agree I'd start Lauchbury over Lawes but SL seems to have kept faith.

The front row are lucky, but who are going to replace them? Wilson is injured still and Brookes is not a starting TH (albeit excellent from the bench). Marler is much better scrummager than Mako so it's a no brainer.

Apparently they did 1st choice against replacements scrums for an hour and the first choice front row dominated the other options. I'm unsure on the make ups but there was an open training session according to one of the main board posters.

Ford has had more than one average game, he's not been playing well of late and looks a bit like a rabbit in the headlights. Perhaps coming off the bench will do him good as he's not dealing with the pressure imo.

Pretty happy with the welsh squad, full strength (fitness in mind) would prefer lee over Francis but need to protect lee's injuries. Think it's going to be a physical match!!

The Welsh scrum could be a worry.

Really concerned with their locking combo of AWJ & Davies, both big scrummagers. I don't think Lawes and Parling bring that to our scrum, it could get nasty.

Anyone see the French game? The Romanian LH dismantled the French TH and was giving away about 3 stone. Can we not send our guys to Romania for a few months?

All Blacks coasting in this one as to be expected. SBW has shown some lovely hands though.

Didn't see the France match but a decent scrum analysis here. Antonio not the best scrummager but not much he can do if the ref lets his opposite man off for the day. http://www.the42.ie/romania-scrum-analysis-2349414-Sep2015/

French scrum got ruined all match. Not just Antonio, Debaty had a really bad day. The Romanian LH would be a tidy buy on here

What an awful 2nd half.

Dominate set piece and lose, no excuse. Backs lacked any kind of creativity, backrow totally outplayed.

Wales deserved it.

Bad news but luckily we have Morgan and Easter is a decent backup. I'd be more concerned with JJ getting ruled out the state of our midfield.

Amos & Scott Williams ruled out for Wales, the latter is a huge blow.

Amos is to be ruled out at the same time as his presence makes moving North to outside centre make more sense

Sorry for lack of predos, not much wifi in Scotland.

Saw the England game, such a disappointment - we lost all tempo, structure when we lost Youngs and Vunipola who I thought were both outstanding. Lancaster made some bizarre substitutions, when Wales got all their injuries we just needed to keep playing the same way as we had for 60 minutes. Burgess had stopped Roberts getting over the gainline all game and Wales were just scoring from ill discipline.

Tremendous final 20 minutes from Wales, Biggar was exceptional.

Hoping that Lancaster gambles against Australia and goes with Slade if JJ isn't fit, Barritt is so out of form due to lack of games with Sarries and impossible ask to get him playing no13.

Skelton and Palu out of the world cup for oz. 

Different tangent but didn't realise Douglas is just as big as Skelton in terms on height!

Highly concerned I won't have any players for WC games with Easter, Serfontein and possibly Hamilton being called up.
