With the draw for Super Rugby 2015 released. Was thinking about potential guns and must buys for next season.


Forwards:


Ardie Savea: Now hes most likely the starting 7 for the Canes. Imo hes a must buy for any FR player. Base Stats were solid.


Michael Hooper: Just carrying his Super Rugby form over to IR. Must buy next season.


Duan Vermulen: If he can carry over his form. Hes a potential fantasy star. 


Keiran Read: World Cup year , so depends 

on availability . But a must too.


Backs:


Julian Savea: Obviousley automatic selection in anyones fantasy team. Arguably the best wing in world rugby. 


Israel Folau: Obviousley like Savea, a must pick. 1St in all stats this season in Tackle 

Busts, LineBreaks, Trys etc. 


 Ma'A Nonu: Had a solid season for the Blues. Currently out for the season with a 

broken arm. But back with the Canes, he well want to proove a point in WC year.


 Ben Smith:


Highlanders to have a good year, it well be because of Smith. Reguarly over 30 pts this season


Up and Comers this season to look out for 

next season:


Patrick Osbourne: 


Had a great year for the Highlanders. Have a 

feeling he could hv a even greater one. 


Lappie Labchange: Had a great year for the 

Cheetahs, must buy next season


Warren Whitely: Was great buy this season, cheap too. Good value if hes as cheap


Matt Proctor: He only a few appearences due to Taylor starting. But although Woodward well prob start, potentially could be a star


Blade Thomson:


Has had a great Itm Cup over here. Was solid for canes reckon he could go well next season. 


Nizam Carr: Was producing some solid scores for the Stormers at the end of the season. Could be good value


Luke Whitelock:


Was pretty solid, but inconsistent. Could be good value


Cornal Hendricks:


Obviousley in try scoring form for the Boks, could carry that over


Captain Choices:


Probably in the backrow. I reckon A Savea or Michael Hooper. Or Read. In the backs prob J Savea or Folau.


Obviousley S15 doesent start till next Feb i think. But interesting too see who well be the players to watch next season.

I agree with most of your selections.  It is better to have the new format for next year - not the funny bussiness of starting like they did the last two seasons.  
I think the problem areas will be the props and hookers, as well as the centers.   Then obviously the cost factor as well:-
Props :   Mtawarire,  Du Toit,   Slipper,  Malherbe,  Cowan
Hookers :   Strauss,  Moore, Bismarck, Cole
Locks :   Etzebeth,  Du Toit, Retallick
Back Row :   Read, Vermeulen, Hooper, Kriel,  Savea, Labuschagne,  Coetzee
SH :   Smith,  Reinach, Groom
FH :   Cruden,  Slade,  Foley,  Pollard
CE  :   De Allende, Smith, Fekitoa,  Small-Smith,  Kriel, Hanekom
OB  :  Folau,  Smith,  Savea,  Nadolo,   Hendricks
 On th whole the SA teams are where a person will have to go to stay within budget - that is why I try and provide pointers to be followed.    I have highlighted the cheap players and they may be important.   Don't say I did not warn you about the loosie Kriel and center Hanekom - both of the Lions.

 3ku1, Nonu will have to have that plate removed before playing - either that or play with a brace
