Fantasy Super Rugby

After the penultimate round fixtures completed on Saturday night there is only one week to go in the Ferner's Fantasy League for 2026.

@oneshadeofblack was the best player of the week, scoring 711 points. His back three selections of Jorgenson, J Campbell and Naholo brought home the goods and helped him move up in the overall standings.

Overall, I was able to thankfully pull away from @kiwipie at the top of the table. I'm hoping to not completely botch it in the last week of play and hopefully take out the crown for 2026.

Best of luck to all players in the final week.

Made some terrible selections, I'm lucky to still be in 2nd.

I thought you were going to run me down selecting double captains. I'm lucky players like Moorby and Naholo were able to bump me up.

@KiwiPie same here, vakatawa really let me down with -1

@canes4life you fluffybunny, Reece captain was a masterstroke. I had ST captain last week and accidentally left Codie captain this week, and he unfortunately did not score 4 tries again.

You know what’s funny, I had Moorby but decided to swap him out for Reece and captain him last minute noting that it was his 100th. Happy to have had my top point scorer when it mattered most.

I’m now 116th overall because of it.

I made the big play of having Paisami as my captain...boy did that pay off!

Yeah I had him, but captained Roigard. The fuck was I thinking? Most of my players barely played even 50 minutes

How the fuck did Feluai score like three times as many points as STT in the final 30?

Fuck fantasy rugby. Absolutely flying high in my mates group only to have disgusting scores the last couple of rounds. Slipped from first to third and was relying on Donaldson and Jorg to outscore Moananu and Tizzano in this last game and they've completely shat the bed while the forwards carve up.

Am convinced the Fantasy rugby bears absolutely no resemblance to one's knowledge of rugby.

@booboo finally, someone had to say it.

That killed any chance of last round heroics for me! Also picked Reece but not as captain but that helped keep me clear in 2nd.

Had an atrocious last couple of rounds, in the end got fucking annihilated by the other half who didn't even realise it was the last round so left a booster or two on the table.

Still undecided whether this leads to a great summer or an off season from hell.

@Bones yep, I agree.

Well that's a wrap folks, thanks to all for playing the second year of Ferner's Fantasy Rugby. Will make sure to do it all again next year.

Shoutout to @kiwipie and @jamsb for their podium finishes. Bring on 2027.

Cheers mate, looking forward to the challenge next year. You kept me honest for sure.

@Canes4life Thanks for the weekly updates, you had a fantastic season!

Thank goodness that's over.

Thanks @canes4life . Mostly.

Pretty surprising in a few positions. At least they got the positions right! If you swap the prop and flanker sides...
