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

Proctor a good chance of returning this week so he will slot into my team nicely. Ironically he's up against Ioane.

@taniwharugby He doesn't seem the type that does well in Fantasy-stats from last season have him playing 12 games, scoring zero tries and making one linebreak. Plus he's expensive.

So am I right in surmising the top ten is guys who either don't post or very rarely post? Telling...

Or Ferners on here have more than two accounts.

Less time arguing online, more time arguing internally about Fantasy selections.

I literally know nothing about some of the Aussie players I've been starting like the Force openside but just read a couple of articles and the stats thing SuperRugby have on their site.

@Canes4life I never saw many Ta$man games, did Taumoefolau look anything like this for them? Because he's put up such big numbers but it feels weird to consider picking him over all the other outside back options that I do know.
