Getting pissed off with all my players getting subbed.

Maybe you should be able to sub them in game ... ?

BUT THAT WOULD BE UNFAIR ON THOSE WHO DON'T SUB!!!

Picking players that are likely to stay on the field longer is all part of the selection process. Big points can be lost by picking the wrong guy.

No, the selection process is picking players likely to score the most points.

@Bones well if they score enough in 60 mins, who's to say they wouldn't lose points in the last quarter...

Obviously true, but the longer they stay on the field the more chance they have to score points also, unless they're Scott Barrett. Remember you get an extra point per player if they stay on the field for longer than 60 mins.

Taniwha already covered that.

It's the small detail that gets you towards the top of the log.

Looks like Fantasy Super Rugby have updated points over the weekend after calculating points properly.

I’ve moved up two spots on the Ferners table since I last looked.

Fuck I went down 4

@Machpants I picked up points but also dropped a couple of spots.

Last time I pick some of these donkeys

Tried to do the co captain thing and have both DMac and Cam, but it didn't seem to want to let me, so gave up.

Then to add fucking insult to incapability, they switch out the brumbies prop loosie as they've re-categorised him, so gave me AA. Dicks.

Had a pretty bad round. Still moved up a lot so I guess others were worse.
Angry at myself for trading out guys that scored for donkeys.
Only saving grace for me was picking Tupaea, he got 98

I subbed out Tupaea and Simon Parker and they grabbed 164 points between them

Would've kept Tupaea in if he'd been starting (or if I'd known he was going to play 70 odd minutes).

Fuck this is amateur. Check out the dashboard.

@Mr-Fish The top scorer of the round being a midfielder off the bench is crazily unlikely, yet he was in 19% of teams because of last week's effort....

Classic case of the more obsessive fans losing out by being too switched on haha.

Having never participated in a fantasy league before I'm worried that this will look like an abusive relationship; I'll stick with the same shit selections hoping they'll change.

Like fuck I'm gonna drop Ardie just so he can go score a hundred odd points.

Sorry fellas, late to the party on this today. Big weekend at Electric Avenue in Chch so feeling a bit dusty.

Congrats to Mr Snuggs who's crept into first place ahead of Racing Carrot. I've posted the top 20 below for everyone's visibility.

My dumb move was dropping one of my high performers from last week in Tezzano for Reimer who didn't score many points. At least I had McReight in my loose trio who was on fire.

Crusaders take the bye for the upcoming week so I'm sure there will be a bit of player movement amongst everyone's squads.

Top 20 after week 2

"He'll change"

I've binned Reiko so you guys keep him, he'll come good now!
