@mikey,
LMFAO,
i dont know why but im all ready cracking up. i hope ur subbing out of ben franks is followed by some speech about how hes been kak hence his dropping from ur starting XV, cos it means nothing when a player is injured, tehehehehehehe, :oP
but im too paranoid to post my team til after the deadline, oimatey is a little too trigger happy with that copy paste,

Ive made all my transfers, but still deciding between Peranara and Pretorious, both pretty irratic players, but Pernara shoud score. And looking at Pretorious he has a pattern of 8, 66, 8. So based on that pattern he should get a big score haha, i dont kno prob go Peranara.

My Cup opponent is taking me to the cleaners - he is by now leading by 206 to 97. However - he has had 8 players playing against my 4. For the rest he has the same captain as I have (Folau) and of his remaining 6 players he has 4 players the same as I have. In other words he has 2 players that I do not have. I would therefore have to make up the points of those two players plus 108 by my six remaining players. Do not think that would happen.

my cup opponent is leading 147-108, but he has used up 6 players to my 4 inculding his captain braid who scored poorly.
of the 11 players i have left to score to his 9, we have 4 of the same players, but one of them folau is my captain, so heres hoping he has a huge game against the bulls.
that means he has 5 players to add to his total score, while i have 7 plus the captains bonus.
still very close, but i feel i have the slight advantage, especially after his captains low score.
a folau magic performance is what im hoping for, as that should take out one of his legs and then all i have to do is just lean on him.
so lets go the wartahs and especially folau who is also my captain in superbru.

Hi, Sasuke San, you look like you are in decent shape in your Cup comp. I wish, in cases where we are head-to-head, that Foxsports would display the number of players played & if the Captain has been used or not would make it easier to track comparisons.
I have used 5 players + captain & have 172 pointsMy cup opponent has 119 points and used 5 player but has Folau as his captain so if Folau has a high points scoring game things will get dicey for me, lol We just have to wait & see, too many variables to figure it out
As you said on another post our sarugby.com is a competitive league I hope we thump the competition in the Cup matchups.

Sasue
It would become clearer after the first match to be played. In that game the position is as follows:-
Opponent - Retallick Whitelock Crotty
Myself - Retallick Whitelock Crotty Messam Anscombe
I think the key would be if Messam and Anscombe score well. Hope they have a magic game. If I can get 70 points out of those two = things will be very close (my opponent got 69 points for his two players in the relevant positions) Hope Abscombe score two tries and Messam as well - I suddenly am a Chiefs supporter.

hey mike,
I'm playing against you in our head to head league.
For the moment I have 212 points (against yours 97) but that's just because 8 of my players have already played. O n the other hand all of them have more or less well permormed. The worst are Ellison (yelow carded!!!!) and perenara with 15 and 12 points.
Let see how it ends and who wins......

everything can happen in an only round , man.
In a big part it depends on what happens in tomorrow's first game. I have very different players:
Whitelock
Read
Nadolo
and no chiefs players.
i trust my saders to nulify the chiefs and make big points. Read usually plays big games against the important opponents (chiefs, springbok,..) and Nadolo has to prove he can repeat big games....

My cup opponent this week is ranked 7th overall!!!...will probably lose he's got a great team...my only hope is Folau has a massive game...I've played 6 ...he's played 8+ his captain...but he has an 80 point lead...not looking good for me!!!Also in a real close head 2 head with oimatey...will probably come down to our captains..he took out my son last week...so I must restore the family pride!!!I've been keeping an eye on the most expensive teams lately as I'm in the top5!!!but this weekend ...clean cuts horde has passed me and is 2nd!!!...this guy posts here right???why doesn't he play in our league???Anyway some big scores already this week...good luck to all

spoke too soon, braid scored 26(at the moment) making my opponents captain not as much of a dud as first thought.
im currently trailing 210-135, all my opponents players have scored some pretty pts, going to need a lot of my players to step up.
very nervous times now,
@crusaders#1,
phew, going head to head with the No7 in the comp??? thats scary in language.
looks like a lot of us are getting tested this round,prob a good thing, cos its only going to get harder from here on out.
19 Apr 2014, 11:59#18
Ive gt 10 players yet to come and folau is my cap, hoping chiefs step upp big time, down by 33 points so confident well win. Another thing how is some players constantly score huge weekly, cheating? Lol i dont know.

damn, im leading 320 to 305, my opponent has steven kitshoff, adriann strauss and ross cronje, while i have deon foruie and warren whittley.
epic sprint for the finish line coming up.
was planning on getting rid of warren whittley next week, but if he comes through for me this round with a big score, im going to keep him a contract with the uchiha clan for the rest of the season.
hopefully kitshoof or strauss get a couple of yellow cards too to help my cause,

Unfortunately I was head-to-head with Lightbringers in round 10 & in round 9 Clevermike had one of his best weeks so two losses in a row for me, lol
I did ok in the cup comp but in our league it is a tough one
Congrats on the Saders win Cruz. A really hard fought game.
