Carugby
A very good side and I would not bother too much about it if I were you. I gave my side earlier and did make one change. With an eye on the future and the bank balance which I am sure will be needed for next week - as a result of the bye's I changed Daniel Carter for Ben Volavola - so I have nearly a $900 000 in reserve.
Next week is for me going to be very problematic and the future more so. Early in April I have to cater for the return of Bismarck Du Pessis and Etzebeth in the squad and they are bloody expensive. I would ultimately have to replace Parsons with Bismark and my replacement of him next week is going to be a temporary measure as a result of the bye - will have to think about that one though.
As to the flyhalf issue I will replace Volavola next week by Anscombe - that is if Volabola is not in the Waratah starting line-up next week - may do it anyway - since the Chiefs are playing the Kings next week. However, I am a bit worried about Anscombe this weekend. He may not be as good as he was last weekend - the Stormers - Chiefs game may be a different kettle of fish altogether and I am not so sure that Anscombe will be as good a scorer this week as he was against the Cheetahs. What I intendd oing is to pikj Anscombe against the Kings and drop Volavola - because I would not favour him against the Sharks
My main problem remains the bye's of next week. I will have to get rid of the following players next week:-
* James Parsons
* Geb Robinson
* Damian de Allende
* James O'Connor
* Charles Piutau
Parsons, De Allende and Piutau are reletively cheap players and I may become stuck with money problems as a result. Put in Volavola as well on the list of disposals for next week - so nice bank balance for next wee is an excellent requirement. I like goalkickers also - but I think you must always bear in mind who their teams are up against as well. Most of my replacements next week will entail Chiefs players - because of their games against the Kings.
Complicated - but keep your team as is. In the case of the Foxsport fantasy squad I have Anscombe on the bench and will swap Lambie with him for the Kings game. Would have done it already - but for the fact that the opposition is different in strength. May ultimately have to let go of Jordaan as well - because his effectiveness is reduced because of the stupidity of Francois Steyn.
