Fantasy Super Rugby: Team of the Week - Round 4; NZ Herald

 Some good players to keep in mind. I only picked Kriel, Whitely, du Toit. Ended up with a middle of the pack type score. My main weakness was at fly half and the fact that a couple of my starters go injured.  Of course Duane let me down again. He seems burned out or else he is playing himself into shape, either way he has to go. Hooper is a better deal.

Duane is one of the players dwhos style does not suit fantasy. Hooper better option.

 3ku1: yes I agree I will trade Duane. Although he may improve when Reid schools him , lol

 I had a number of players on my list and had Pollard as my Vice-Captain - wish I had him as my captain.
The other players I had was Adriaan Strauss, Pieter-Steph du Toit, Michael Hooper, Damian de Allende and Jesse Kriel.   So I had 6 of the higher point scorers in my side and got 425 points.  I am now at 10 on their leader-board out of 7533 participants.  Quite chaffed about that.
I had a look at my side and am thinking of the following changes:-
*   Dan Coles and Rory Arnold were on my bench - back to the starting  line-up - ahead of Parsons and Etzebeth
*    Questionable move - bench Labuschagne and replace him from the bench by Marcell Cotzee 
*    Bring in Coleman to replace Williams - huge gamble
*   replace Kuridrani with Ngatai
*   replace benched Leali'ifano with Cruden or even James O'Connor - huge gamble and start with one of them after benching Pollard.
The team selections will impact on the changes to be made.  Incidentally I thought that by keeping Parsons as he was on the Blues bench - I may get a few points from him when he came of the bench.  I ended up with zero points for him and 4 for Etzebeth.   But for Pollard - chances of improvement in points are good.   
By the way - I had Reinach as scrummie - he struggled against the Stormers - since the Stormers forwards crushed the Sharks forwards.  They are playing the Cheetahs on Saturday and the sitation is going to be vastly different - will not change Reinach at this stage.    


       

My current score for fantasy rugby is 416 but the final tally for the scores will change things. I still anticipate I will be middle of our pack for our league in round 4. Time to make some trades.

I think im goonna maintain 1st place. Dont know how im first place haha but I am.

CleverMike: I think you mean you have 525 points not 425 points
