Fantasy Pro12

ormond lad

Ive set up a boards league for this season.
League name is boards.ie 12/13 and the password is c77bede5

Doing a fantasy team for the Pro12 is a bit strange, you almost have to avoid all of the best indigenous players (particularly for Ireland) since they will only play 60/70% of the games yet find proven tryscorers.

thomond2006

btw where is the scoring scheme for this?

wp_rathead

done
Madigan is a winger which is amusing

remember teams have to be confirmed before 6.45pm tomorrow

Done. Though I think I may have weighted it too strongly towards who is playing the opening two weeks. Will need to make some transfers to beef it up over the next while (which I'll probably forget to do).

changed the team abit

TOH and madigan are bargains, out of position players

also this is far more easy to choose a team in this compared to football

errlloyd

I think it would be really interesting to make a selection of the most commonly occurring players across all our teams (price permitting) and see how they do.

Teferi

I'm missing something here...Where do you make your selections!?

Teferi

Never mind.

Not very intuitive though.

Teferi

Fusaro it is so. Cheers.

errlloyd

Whatever legend had Niall O Connor on their fantasy team deserves to be ahead.

blackhound

Have Paddy Jackson at fly half kinda sickened now.

chelseaaremagic

is the fantasy pro12 site crashed or what --no updates; leagues not sorted --very disappointed with it so far

Theta

The site is pretty rubbish. Its one of the worst Fantasy sites I have seen.

Teferi

Yeah, it really is a poor site overall.

Wexfordboy89

is anyone else having problems loading the website.i cant load it just comes up on the page something about the sever and a load of gibberish.

thomond2006

It's a low budget PoS. There's not enough people using it I'd say for them to put serious time/money into improving everything about the game and site.

It's perfectly cromulent

Theta

Didnt do to shabby 74 points this week!

Wexfordboy89

68 points for me 11th overall in the leinster fans not too bad

CIARAN_BOYLE

It might be smart to drop Nacewa if Madigan is going to be ahead of him in the pecking order amoung placekickers.
