Never done one of these before. i joined, hope that's alright.
I've signed up my troops. Looking forward to this one.
I see we have an odd round 1 again this year but with only 4 SA teams though not the Stormers
Anybody know the reason? Going to have to back some Lions players LOL.

South Africa's start (and finish) their midyear tests a week later than NZ and Australia. Their last mid-year test (vs Scotland) is on the 28th of June - the the weekend of the 17th round of Super Rugby. Therefore they start a week early, as they are aren't involved in round 17. The Stormers have the bye week 1, which is the worst time to have a bye - at least they will get early points on the board though
Haven't looked yet but find a 12 that can kick for poles is a viable alternative
Freuen does great then bad but could be considered if he makes the chiefs side
Bulls center pair is potent
There is a few possibilities around
Interesting I picked Bryce Hegarty for the Rebels as my back up fly half. when i log in today the player has changed to "UNAVAILABLE" and he's no longer available for selection as a fly half. this is strange as he is likely to be the starting fly half for the rebels this season.
Ja, I'm a bit ****** that Steve Luatua moved from lock to loose forwad as well. Him in a position that usually doesn't earn well was my first pick despite the heavy price tag (particularly with Etzebeth and Bekker both lost to us T.T). The NZ posters would know better than I do but with Kaino, Braid and Sai'ili there and a lack of quality locks (at least relative to the class the Blues have in the backrow) I wouldn't be surprised to see him play at lock.
So they make those two changes but someone like AAC is still listed as an outside back whereas he'd probably play in the centers and Deon Fourie is listed as a hooker whereas I'd be surprised if he doesn't play in the backrow with Schalk Burger and Siya Kolisi being the ones to alternate off the bench for the Stormers and Scarra Ntubeni to act as 1st choice hooker with Tiaan Liebenberg the back-up.
PS; could an admin please stickie this thread? Pretty please?
"Steven] Luatua would be unlikely to start [as lock]. We'd have to be in a bad way for locking stocks. He might play 10 minutes [at lock] to finish games."
Most likely we will see
6. Luatua
7. Braid
8. Kaino (according to recent reports).
I wouldn't be shocked to see Luatua play a bit at lock - but the coaches have indicated that Tom Donnelly, Liaki Moli and Patrick Tuipulotu will be preferred there - and they're signing another lock to replace Retallick.

I'm not sure exactly when sabbatical ends, but I think he is expected to play the majority of the Super Rugby season (if not the whole season).I have some questions:
1- Conrad Smith will play Super Rugby this year? Or he will continue his break? Because Richie McCaw had also taken a break but he returned before the agreed time.
I expect Saia Faingaa and James Hanson will share the hookinh duties for the Reds as they have in previous seasons. Albert Anae will cover hooker if either is injured, but I suspect we will see more of him at LH prop this season.2- Who will be the hooker of Reds? Albert Anae or James Hanson?
I'm sure our South African posters will have a better idea of this, but I would have thought he had a strong chance of starting given Bekker is gone and Etzebeth is currently injured.3- Anyone know if Manuel Carizza has a chance to start in the starting XV of Stormers?
Kaino will likely start the majority of games for the Blues this season at 8.4- I heard that Jerome Kaino could play at number 8 in Blues, that is true?
Cheers
... I'm back ... and I'm back for another beating
I just autopicked my team, and got Dan Carter for my Fly Half ... Isn't he on Sabbatical or something?
