Fox Banter - Roundnd 3

Looks like another crap week for me...
Milner-SKudder hardly featured
Ardie got a yellow
TJ - not much to say
Fatialofa got a yellow

Plus i had McKenzie and Hika Elliott

With the rain pelting down, i dont see this game getting many points at all!

 From my perspective it was a disaster - not many points at all.  

Flash, I also had Mil-Skud, Ardie and Fatiolofa . . . and Dane Coles who was rather average.

The only Hurricanes in my team who scored reasonable points were Julian Savea, TJ Perenara and Beauden Barrett who were the three Hurricanes I benched!

Only thing that can save me this weekend is a hat-trick from my captain Dillyn Leyds.

 So once again I picked the wrong -un for my captain arrrrrgghhh !!!I should know by now that Kiwi teams cannibalize each others points being fairly evenly matched .

 Would you guys  swap Nabuli in for Dagg ? I am worried Dagg might have a crap week like round 2 but Nabuli might be a one hit wonder gaaaaggghh!!!

Tough call Wardad. Dagg is back in his favoured fullback position and I can't see Nabuli running riot against the Crusaders the way he did against the Force. Reckon I'd stay put if I was in your shoes.

You might consider trading Dagg for a Cheetah or Stormer outside back though?

 Cheers Rooie might stick with Dagg seeing as how its a non kiwi team and hes back where he likes to play ,I dont know as much as I would like about the stormers or Cheetahs players as I would like but might be worth a punt .Cjheers !

 Rain reduced the points earning for the Canes v Chiefs game that's for sure. Plus of course the poor discipline of the Canes. I had a fair few canes selected but fortunately I had I. Ioane for captain - hope he has a good game with no rain

I Ioane? There's another one???

 Ha ha Rooie, yes it's R. Ioane but if there was an I. Ioane I would pick him also. 

Akira's been a bit disappointing so far this season. Looks like Tana Umaga thinks so too.

 Yeah I had high hopes for Akira ,even had digby on the bench for a whole .Theres a few of 'em getting aboot !Wonder how Digby would have gone in the ABs set-up?

 So I swap out Nabuli for Digby Ioane cos Charlie Faunaina isnt playing and I leave digby on the bench .At half time Digby has 26 points and Dagg 7 !

 Rooinek I feel for you.  You benched the wrong players I believe and Seta was injured early.    However, I had Milner Skudder as captain and he scored near to zero this week.
I think that the weather conditions had a massive impact on the games.   and could eb the reason for injuries.  
My selections were also pretty hopeless - so the two of us are in deep trouble this week.  I have four Stormers players in the next game and hope they do well.  
That is followed by two benched players of the Lions - so I am in fact weak in this weeks Head-to-head.  

This week is a disaster for me. Naholo, Mil-Skud, Tamanivalu . . . if you were in my starting XV then you probably got crocked early in the first half.
Only my Hapless Stompies players can save me now!

 Sounds like Blues were up to their old tricks again Cloudy
Rooi, same for me mate, Charlie didn't even take to the field & Franks was my bench prop so I had one player down from the start. R. Ioane did bugger all and he was my captain and so on and so on. Well at least I dropped West as my 10.

 That's true Cloudy, but they were still in it at the death of the match. They'll take a big scalp soon.

 My worst ever round since I started in 2011,NINE of my starting lineup failed to reach double figures.My bench players [ one of whom was my top scorer overall] scored more than those 9 .Congrats to Mr Black Power who still made a respectable score in our head to head.Dont worry Cloudy theres a few easy beat Aussies for the Blues to sharpen up on !

Im so annoyed!
Ardie Savea (my captain) got 0 points!!!

Thank F for Mahojo and Whiteley, my other 2 loosies!
I still managed to get 310 points, even with my captain getting 0.

 Well most of us took a pounding, me included. Charlie didn't even get on the field & Owen Franks didn't play - he was on my bench. R. Ioane had a crap day & he was my captain Canes & Chiefs played in the rain so a low scoring game for fantasy rugby. And the tale of woe continues. Time to flush that one down the dunny and move on I say

I did okay actually I scored 338. Still updating. Made Zelinga Cheetahs fly half. Got me 66 point screen prob should of made Mohoje captain. But not bad considering most of my big point scorers the Canes. We're neutralised due to the conditions.
