    What a pull!

    Edit: 20 stars by the way

    Wonder how many of those 12s are almost 13's. Limited experience is nice too.

    If you're selling, I know a lady who can guarantee 10 lvl 5s for the Irish cause, bags of cash too, so a bidding war won't be a problem ;)

    Loving Div 1 this season. Every team is so close its hard to predict winners. Everyone capable of beating everyone else.

    Today I have a tricky battle on my hand against Gideons. Kinda looked at it initially as "they're newly promoted... grrrrand sure, foot off the gas" but, um, out of the 8 times we've played before they've beaten me 5. Plus they're at home. Plus I should be one of their prime targets for wins. So... this morning I'm a bit anxious. Hopefully it'll be a good battle :)

    21-0 does sounds like overkill. Unless he makes a 2nd half comeback. It's always painful when you waste a tnt, I'm a divil for being cautious and throwing everything at a game I'm doubtful about.
    TNTed today, but thankfully there's only 1 try in it, so it wasn't too much of a waste. Now hope I can hold on or grind out the bonus point.

    Forgot to set lineup for cup match tonight. Was planning on throwing it to conserve energy for the league and likely to lose to East Coast Tinders either way. Now that the stars are up I'm only about 3 stars down and playing at home, so might tune into the game this evening after all.

    Doing better this season, thankfully, though I've had the easy matches first. At least auto-relegation is looking somewhat further away this time.

    A bot in our league has taken the pressure off avoiding relegation, but the race is now on for playoffs. Unfortunately I got crushed by FRF again.

    A lot of this is going to be down to how your fixtures fall. Mine look to be nice :rolleyes:

    I'm having a really weird season, beat two of the better teams in my league, lost to two of the weaker teams in my league, hanging in play-off spot, but it's a real shoot out for who gets there.

    If I can strengthen my squad before the end of the season I should be in contention for play-offs, maybe even an entirely unwinnable final, but I've been pretty poor this seaosn. Not happy, hoping for things to come back together next season, another 3rd in my league I'd be over the moon.

    Substitutions are here!!

    Must say I like the option of making a sub if "winning/losing by more than x" etc..

    Between this and the zonal tactics, life is getting trickier for one-clickers!

    Substitutions! It’s substitutions. The secret feature… is substitutions. We’re extremely excited to finally release, literally, the oldest suggestion in the book. This feature was outlined in the original Blackout Rugby blueprint way back in 2006, but was dropped in favour of getting the game out the door. But it’s here now, better late than never. So go check it out! There is a new “Subs” tab on your lineup editor, and the documentation is here. Thanks to the review board guys who helped with designing this feature, and to the team who helped with testing. You know who you are. More

    There will be further updates to substitutions in the future such as child rules to allow moving players around on the field as part of a substitution - however, these are not available yet.
