Just a warning to potential fantasy players: given they are playing some games on a Thursday the cut-off time for teams will be potentially disastrous if you don't watch out.

I've been trying to join the Fox Sports league but the link in the OP doesn't seem to be working?

 

[Simon.]

Milner-Skudder injured again for the Canes. Should upset a few Fantasy lineups, mine included. :/

 

[RugbyReg]

If you haven't seen already I've been writing for Fox Sports of late on fantasy rugby.

And I'm with you Simon. I was on with NMS. Will have to ditch him now.

Absolute madness with these NZ sides not naming their All Blacks.

Who do the NZRU think they are? Lion's tour? Who cares! Selfish pricks.

My fantasy team is at constant Defcon-5. It like on of those fire hazard signs on the highway: "Catastrophic".

I just wish all the teams would be named ASAP so I can finalise me bloody squad.

Also - Jordie Barrett (named at 15) for centre or Simone? They'll both have huge seasons but I can't justify subbing out Kerevi.

J Barrett should be goalkicking if that helps
