Well WD my goddamn problem is the proliferation of this stuff on almost every string at the top of the Board. It's hard to ignore as you advise, because on many clear rugby topics we find attacks on those posters who have chosen not to play Fantasy Rugby, and if not attacks solicitations that take the strings off topic.
It all has a whiff of Beeno about it, except Beeno is much more entertaining.

Mozart - Wardad is right. This is a rugby discussion site and the fantasy competitions are rugby related. You have no right to instruct members what they may write about - so please stop your childishness.

Wardad, Anthony Volmink might be a good investment seeing as Ruan Combrink is crocked but note that one of the Lions stars of the warm-up games has been Sylvian Mahuza who - like Volmink - is minimum price. If I knew which one would start (alongside Courtnall Skosan on the other win I imagine) I'd be very tempted to pick him.
I know nothing about Will Tupou the Sunwolves centre. Is he related to Jimmy Tupou, the Blues lock?
I know there are very few cheap loosies but I found one who might be a bargain. Roelof Smit of the Bulls is minimum price and he toured with the Springboks in November. He played well enough against the Barbarians to be considered for a test spot and then picked up an injury. Looks very good value.
Problem with picking Lions or Bulls is that they're likely to be among those teams that won't have announced their teams before the first round lock.
As for Moffie, well, his behaviour speaks volumes about his supposed interest in rugby. We've waited months for Super Rugby to start again and every time there's a message board spat someone says "wait for the rugby to start". Well, here we are 3 days before kick off of the Super Rugby season and Moffie and his Gimp are seeing who can put up the longest cricket post (in the Rugby section) while telling everyone who is talking about rugby to "shut up" or "who cares".
Frankly, I'm surprised anyone is actually surprised. Pretty standard behaviour from the resident blowhard and his grovelling little toady.

Anyone looking for a cheap hooker who will be starting this weekend? The Rebels have named their team and Pat Leafa (FR$112) is starting.
Seems the expected starting hooker James Hanson was injured in the final pre-season match but I have no info on how long he is out for. If it's for any extended period then Leafa might be a very good FR option.
The Blues have also named a minimum priced starting hooker in Matt Moulds, although he's less likely to hold down his place given that James Parsons (who is recovering from concussion) is co-captain of the Blues.

Moz not chosen to play....you have to be kidding WD. In any case this isn't personal it's just business. But I'd setlle for complete freedom to post Option C, which is what the Board voted for.....and what you chaps seem to be granting yourselves.

The Board voted that some pertinent items not rugby related can be posted. That does not mean anybody can dictate what rugby issues are raised on this site.
