Geez, I'll say. They STILL haven't updated the scores from any of last nights' games.

Yep several of my players are on zero. Someone at fox must've had a big night on turps.

He must have been a Sharks supporter. After last nights performance quite a few of us Sharks supporters were driven to drink!

Having stayed up to watch that game I'd understand that! I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I just hope Bismarck Du Plessis got a good score in that game despite the loss.

Dear Mr Baron,
I was crook Thurs Fri last week but thought it was a prime opportunity to allow you to catch up.

Anyone now starting to look at compiling their fantasy team and thinking, heck, it's all too tough after a few weeks' off?
Seem to find the Super 15 in the aftermath of 3 weeks' test matches a bit of a let down, be worse for the Tahs fans as it's a bye weekend for them!

Yep. And I have to do mine before Thursday night!!!!!!
Oh dear. I feel Baron's breathing down the back of my neck.

OK This is my starting point. I know Oosthuizen is out injured after the internationals. Guessing Tomane won't be playing either. Any others that I don't know about?

Maybe one of our SA brethren can inform us, but I thought Lambie was injured as well.

Looks like Carter, Read, Dagg, Jane and Vito won't be fronting up for the Crusaders/Hurricanes clash this week:

Cruden could be out for the Chiefs as well, considering he suffered an injury on the weekend.
Doubt over Beale too.
Glad I kept my wildcard, I think I might be needing it very soon!

Are all the teams out yet?

Most of them. But I will be off air tomorrow so need to do it today. Just waiting on Brums, Stormers & Lions. Took the risk.

This is what I am going with. Kind of hard to pick a team on form after not seeing them play for a month.

Eerily similar to mine after I had used my wild card for a complete overhaul, except for the Reds triumvirate of Genia, QC (Quade Cooper) and Digby...hope that pays off with all of them starting together for the first (or is it 2nd) time together this season!
Glad I saved up my wildcard as I needed it this week.
Had to make 6 changes just to put a side on the park.
P: Alexander, Cowan (Taumalolo)
H: Chiliboy Ralepelle (Bismarck du Plessis)
L: Sharpe, Retallick (Pyle)
BR: McCaw, Thomson, Spies (c) (Coetzee)
HB: Hougaard (White)
IB: Ellison, Cruden, Andrew Smith (Grant)
OB: Taylor, Savea, Basson (Kingston)
Hoping Andrew Smith has a big game against the Force as I've left Grant out.
Hoping the Hurricanes can make some dents in the Crusaders this time around.

Props: Slipper, Sona, (Fat Cat) - didn't have enough transfers, hope Sona gets some game time
Hooker: Ged Robinson, (Bismarck) - again not enough transfers but I don't think Adam will play a whole game so confident Ged will get some time.
Locks: Jason Eaton, Peter Kimlin, (Luatua).
Backrow: Pierre Spies, Hooper, Kolisi, (CJ Stander) - CJ is on the bench for the Bulls so I felt I needed someone who'll be out there longer, Spies has been going ok with his points tally.
Scrumhalf: Francois Hougaard, (McKibbin) - Hougaard a bit quiet in the test series he will look to play a bit better for mine this round.
Inside Backs: SBW (Capt), Andrew Smith, Fruean, (Cruden) - I'm worried that Cruden may get hooked early given he's under a bit of an injury cloud. Of course now that I've benched him I'm sure he'll do great & Smith will be well contained in another dour Aussie derby.....
Outside Backs: Taylor, Savea, Guildford, (Dagg) - Looking for the Saders to win naturally but I'm hoping for my fantasy team that it is a high scoring affair. Looking forward to Savea v Guildford. Zac really was hitting his straps in the last couple of super rugby games & Savea has really impressed. I want both to over for tries. Taylor is also quite handy.
Good luck everybody. How great is it that SupeRugby is back!? Feels like ages since it has been on.
