Fantasy Rugger 6 Nations League

TICKLE_ME_ELMO

Started a league if anyone wants to join.

Pretty much the same deal as the WC. Pick a team of 25 within the salary cap. Select a starting 15. Unlimited changes until the first deadline.

No idea if they've ironed out the kinks from the WC or not but feel free to join in. As with the WC there are other leagues where you can win prizes so worth a try.

Hi TICKLE_ME_ELMO

We've been working hard to get it right this time round. The site is now much quicker (even with heavy traffic) and will be a lot more enjoyable to play. Any issues, feel free to DM me!

Best of luck
Chris

I get stuck in a loop when trying to sign up via facebook. I get this error "Given URL is not whitelisted in Client OAuth Settings: This redirect failed because the redirect URI is not whitelisted in the app’s Client OAuth Settings. Make sure Client and Web OAuth Login are on and add all your app domains as Valid OAuth Redirect URIs."

Stuck up a placeholder team there anyway. See how we go, thought the salary cap was quite high until I still had half my subs bench to fill.

No doubt a good few changes when squads are being announced.

Trying to pick a team but it wont let me save as I "don't have enough funds" even though there is 5000 left. Any suggestions?

Have you picked a full team?

If it's not this then at some stage subbing someone the money thing got messed up. Log out and back in and you should have the right amount.

You sure that the 5000 isn't in red? That means it's negative balance.

That was it.

Not too impressed with the new Irish Times one... some very random valuations (Back row in particular)... No scottish scrum half? Laidlaw down as out half.

Might be time to give the fantasyrugger a whirl!

Party Jungle. Sorry to hear this. I think it's interaction with a facebook app if you are on mobile. Could you try on desktop - log into facebook then try Fantasy Rugger again and should be no problem

PHB

Can't stand the Irish Times one. Stupid points system always and now they've half-assed a weird system.

Fantasy Rugger

Hey guys,

How did you find picking your teams - too hard/easy?

Reports are that the site is much quicker which we hope you are finding also

Really looking forward to KO on Saturday now

Sangre

What is the cutoff for picking squad? Can't find it on the site anywhere.

Seems to be fine, had no issues picking my team.

The only issue I think you may run into is that Earls and Dave Kearney cost the same, and that's going to cause arguments on here. :pac:

The Irish Times has gone crazy, I liked the simplicity of it before because I could have a league with my non rugby loving friends (and use ESPN or Fantasy Rugger for the more dedicated fans).

Provided and presuming that's GMT, am I right in saying we will be into the second half of France v Italy at that point?

I suspect the cut off will be Saturday early afternoon at the very latest.

Fantasy Rugger

That was local time. We will be changing this to 2:25 GMT. Thank you for spotting the error

Great, I think you'll find being with Fantasy Rugger more "Adventagious"


(I'll see myself out)

I enjoyed the set up on FR more than on the IT site for what it's worth, good clean design.

I just subbed Ford (as I'm not sure he'll take kicks) and don't seem to have an assigned kicker now (in fantasyrugger.com). I can't seem to find how to assign one - any help?

Johnny Farango

Also, I joined up your fantasyrugger league 15 Hangry Men is my team. Thanks for setting that up!
Is there an Irish Times Munsterfans league?

There should be a little K or a C beside one of your players? Click on that and you should be able to assign a captain and kicker.

Small bug - if you transfer your captain and kicker out of the team, theres nowhere to select a new captain and kicker. You need to transfer the old captain/kicker back into the team and then transfer captain / kicker to players you want to keep.

This happened me during the WC but I couldn't get it fixed, had to register with another email and pick a whole new team. Didn't think about subbing the guys back in.

Whens the deadline for this site?

I'm in a few ESPN leagues but I enjoyed this one during the WC

2:25 this afternoon. Just before first kickoff.

They've got some scores up already.

Parisse did me an absolute solid as did Nowell. Hardie and Jonnie Grey also went well.

Got nothing from Care, my Italian sub scrummie had a vastly more points worthy game.

Got .6 for Ben Arous, did he go off early?

All in all, so far, I've had really good performers and awful performers and nothing in between bar Hogg.

Hogg only did ok, despite fielding some exceptional kicks. I think there should be some score awarded for defensive and offensive fielding personally. It's a critical skill.

I'd imagine it would be a bit of a nightmare to assign points for.

The French subbed both props around the 50 minute mark I think.

Only on the Irish times one myself, I half arsedly do it for fun with some mates every year. They've a completely overhauled system this year meaning that everyone's team won't be 8 back rows, a scrummie, out half and 5 wingers any more. I've no idea how good it will be but it should be at least slightly more interesting.

looks like it is updated already.

Yup very quick, but I've some concerns around accuracy.

Currently am 6th in the boards league. Front row let me down and if only Stander had gotten that non try!

I think Gatland is intentionally trying to mess with the heads of fantasy rugby participants: http://www.the42.ie/dan-biggar-recovery-2593969-Feb2016/?utm_source=twitter_self

Deadline in 30 minutes for anyone still at this. Has run fairly well so far, can't have any complaints.

It's not as much fun as the WC one. Obviously more players and more matches makes it a bit more exciting.

Vast majority of my team from yesterday scored over 9 points and I've 7 players to go today. Could be a good week.

Team is done for final weekend. I had a great day last Saturday and thought I was on for a personal record for the weekend but then Sunday was not at all good. Think deadline today is 1:00?

On a side note - credit to the developers for fantasyrugger - ran perfectly this six nations and moving forward will probably be the website I'll go with for 6N / RWC.

Good to see the rectified a lot of the issues from the world cup!

TICKLE_ME_ELMO

Not sure if these are the final numbers but it looks like we have a clear winner.



Congratulations "Full Stack Rugby". As reigning Boards Fantasy Rugger champion I hand over the trophy.

Have to settle for second this year - I had a really good last round picking Biggar as my kicker and captain.

I had a great week last week but had really bad luck this week with having too many players that were ruled out, couldn't replace them all and my subs were the cheapest I could get to afford better starters.

jack01986

Got third should have made a few more changes and for the kicker and captain. I was there or thereabouts for most of the rounds!
