Just thought I'd risk sticking my filthy Planet Rugby peasant mug above the parapet to have a Fantasy league thread.
Only started this year and I'm addicted 2 weeks in.

Hawkins a wasted pick this week.

Finn and White have been solid earners for me.
White is a cheap/high value pick so far.

Totally forgot about this this week. 3 players not playing and another one on the bench!

Hoping England don't shit the bed tomorrow.

Which Fantasy? Superbru? And if Superbru are you using PR's own pools or the original Plan et Rugby ones?

PR has a 6N fantasy league, presumed it'd have NPR type crossover given its a few years old?

Another okay gameweek so far for me.

Picked the wrong captain though in JvDF.

I'm glad I only care about beating you lot. 2nd currently with what I thought was a decent enough day. 643 with my English and Italian players yet to score.

The overall leader earned 954 points yesterday! I'm already nearly 400 points behind him. And he stlll has 3 starters and two bench to play.

Jammy fecker had Kinghorn as his supersub.

Hogg was a let down, and Kelleher an unexpected super bonus as super sub.

You got very unlucky with Hogg.

I had Kelleher too. Happy days.

Would have been extremely average for me, so far, but I had Russell as captain and picked up 182 points. Not holding out too much hope for today though. Currently tenth up 2 from last week.

Not many better than Russell.

Does anyone know how to look at what a player has gotten for a particular round rather than overall?

I'm trying to figure out if any of my changes actually made a difference this week!

I'm hoping Arundell makes an impact as my supersub.

Decent day yesterday climbing nine places to 5th with Russell as captain and Dorris also in my team . A lot of other solid performers too. I’ve four English in my starting team and two Italians on the bench

My punt on Capuozzo is a bit of a disaster so far.

Hope he can pick up some points in the second half.

Do have Chessum and George though.

Capuozzo and Farrell killing me today. Farrell is only ahead of the former because England are winning. He's done feck all.

Your three tight forwards are doing very well for you though

Stewart has barely touched the ball , worst selection of the week given how much he cost and the loss of points by removing Ramos

Can't complain too much as I'm now top but I'm still annoyed about how useless Farrell was.

At least Capuozzo redeemed himself in the second half.

Safe as houses.

Just a shame the ref didn't let that knock on advantage play out.
