too early to try something new?
AI might be too smart.....listed Finn Hurley at halfback :cat_face_with_tears_of_joy:
@Kiwiwomble Apart from picking the midget in the normal midget position, did it come in under budget?
@antipodean didn;t get as far as checking the budget, first list only had 12 names....second one had 19...so i went with
"taking all rules and the fixture list into consideration, can you give me the best 15 players across the positions available"
listed aaron smith
so i refined
"aaron smith left super rugby a few years ago, taking all rules, squad and injury lists and the fixture list into consideration, can you give me the best 15 players across the positions available"
and it listed brad weber.......
Okay, building a complete 15-player fantasy Super Rugby team requires careful consideration of each position. Here's a lineup, incorporating strong performers and value picks, based on available information:
Fantasy Super Rugby Team:
-
- Prop: Angus Bell (Waratahs) - Strong scrummager, good attacking presence.
-
- Hooker: Matt Faessler (Reds) - Reliable set-piece work, contributes in open play.
-
- Prop: Taniela Tupou (Waratahs) - Powerful, high impact player.
-
- Lock: Tupou Vaa'i (Chiefs) - Solid set-piece, good work rate.
-
- Lock: Patrick Tuipulotu (Blues) - Experienced, strong physical presence.
-
- Flanker: Fraser McReight (Reds) - Excellent turnover ability, high tackle count.
-
- Flanker: Dalton Papali'i (Blues) - High work rate, strong ball carrier.
-
- Number 8: Hoskins Sotutu (Blues) - Dynamic ball carrier, strong in open play.
-
- Scrum-half: Cam Roigard (Hurricanes) - Excellent distribution, sniping runs.
-
- Fly-half: Damian McKenzie (Chiefs) - Playmaking genius, high scoring potential.
-
- Wing: Mark Telea (Blues) - Dangerous finisher, high try-scoring threat.
-
- Centre: Anton Lienert-Brown (Chiefs) - Solid distributor, strong defender.
-
- Centre: Rieko Ioane (Blues) - very high impact player.
-
- Wing: Corey Toole (Brumbies) - very fast, and a high try scoring threat.
-
- Fullback: Shaun Stevenson (Chiefs) - very high attacking threat.

With DMac not available and Roigard on the bench this week there will have to be some nifty selections this week.

I'd pop a Tizzano in the loose forwards, he's been a Fantasy points machine. Not including Ardie in your team is a big call as well. Quite a few players you've listed aren't available this week. I hope people use this team this week. 
Tupou was a massive flop for me last week, he's getting the boot.
An FYI for everyone, the form fantasy side so far based on average points per game is:
- M Pearce (Force)
- R Riccitelli (Blues)
- T Robertson (Force)
- D Swain (Force)
- C Grace (Crusaders) - he's listed as a lock but plays in the loose, good chance he scores more points
- S Parker (Chiefs)
- C Tizzano (Force)
- A Savea (Moana)
- C Roigard (Hurricanes)
- D McKenzie (Chiefs)
- S Reece (Crusaders)
- Q Tupaea (Chiefs)
- A Leinert-Brown (Chiefs)
- C Tangitau (Highlanders)
- K Taumoefalou (Moana Pasifika)
Good advice, I ignored Pearce last week despite his previous scores then and both Force props scored so well.
FFS.
I only have scores for Vaai and Riccitelli in the forwards so far and both of them individually scored more than these 3 together.
@BerhamporeNinja I've only got the unlimited budget left...but the way the values don't go up or down I haven't found I need.that?
I feel like I've had a pretty poor round so far, but have boosted from 15th to 8th on our leaderboard, so most people struggling a bit
@No-Quarter I stayed on 16th with 1 player yet to play.
@taniwharugby its a waste of a space, i have that booster left aswell and dont see any use in it, majority of the "high end" players are continously getting low scores except for guys like Mckenzie, who show up week in week out. but you get guys like Taumoefolou and Tangitau who are always getting high scores but cost less to purchase. the value of these players should increase
Yeah I did read comments on here about the likely weather beforehand and thought maybe it wouldn't be that bad, then I watched a few minutes and it looked like a slip and slide ad. Hoping Jordan, Reece and Havilli can help me make some ground up today.
