With just over two weeks to go before the start of Super Rugby I daily check the websites to see whether the competitions have been initiated yet - but thus far is no news yet. Can friends please check also and report progress please.
No update yet on Foxsports front. But should be a comp starting in about a week or so.
The UDT is not running a fantasy comp this year and the only hope now is for Foxsport to come to the party.
I think the delay in Foxsport relates to the announcement of the squads of the various franchises - they cannot start a comp without those being available. So now that the Lions have announced their squad - things should start moving.
Oimatey made a recent contribution and ABF I have not heard from. I am more worried about Sasuke San - he did join last year. However, the moment Foxsport comes to life, I am going to ask the Ed to sent an e-mail request encouraging all members to join up.
Guys Foxsports fantasy comp is now up and running https://www.foxsports.com.au/fantasy
I've created an league Ruckers Forum 1. Open League. https://fantasy.foxsports.com.au/rugby/super-rugby/classic/#classic/leagues/4622/join/4TJAWK9Y
Code 4TJAWK9Y
Thanks Luke
I joined and hope for the best. I think Round 1 is not in the comp - it only starts in Round 2.
I will send a message to Ed asking him to circulate the info to all Ruckers Forum members and encouraging them to join.
Nah they are starting at RD 2. Seeing only two games are on.
Seeing as I opened my big mouth to challenge JW, I thought I'd register my incredible team ... but ... I'm having difficulty agreeing to their new terms and conditions ... as they don't seem to have provided me with the means to do so.
So ... where to go ... what to do ... any help to get me sorted would be appreciated.
Oh boy ... can only imagine what's gonna happen to me if it starts like this.
Oh and... JW ... YOU'RE GOING DOWN, BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I suggest that you use the computerized team selection and then make the changes you want to make - but please bear in mind the maximum budget allowance.
I made an initial selection as follows:-
OB = D McKenzie, J Barrett, W Goosen, M Mapimpi
CE = R Ioane, H Vorster, K Godwin
FH = D Willemse, H Pollard
SH = A Pulu, I van Zyl
BR = A Savea, J Kriel, J Ioane, H Augustus
LO = P-S du Toit, J Schickerling, B Retallick
HO = M Marx, J Parson s
PR = S Kitshoff, J Toomaga-Allen, T du Toit
I could not find the name of Ioane amongst the OB's - otherwise I would have selected him; It is not sure when Kwagga would return from Sevens and if selected - he is a definite insofar as I am concerned,
The above is just provisional depending on the actual team selection
I will start and operate a thread on team selection on a weekly basis.
Have Fun
It won't let me log in.
I use my e-mail address and my own devised secret code. I suggest that you use the info you used last year to log in.
Yes ... I'm registered ... except it wants me to re-accept it's new terms and conditions before it'll allow me access ... problem is it doesn't enable me to do this ...
Not to worry Mike ... I'll get it sorted ... I hope ... I have a JW scalp to collect.
CC old mate, I will check my schedule and see if I have time for you this season. If not we will revert to the scores of last seasons Foxsport comp. I'll have to check but I believe I my score might have been a tad higher than yours
Haaaaaaahahahahahaaaa!!!
What's that sound? Is that a ... chicken ... I hear clucking over yonder?
Well ... for your info JW ... I registered a little late last season ... and so had no chance of competing ... and thus didn't bother ... hence the score of ZERO.
It doesn't prove you to be the better manager ... I take it you did score above zero ... right?
l ol!!!

Why do you interfere in this thread? You yourself are totally ignorant an lies constantly about the situation - stupid.
I have joined.
Can anyone tell me why is Rohan Janse van Rensburg not on the player list?
KK
I also wanted to pick him - but his name was not on the list. I think that Foxsport did not know that Van Rensburg is on loan and still in the Lions squad.
They will add his name soon and I would make enquiries if they don't.
There are now 11 members and we need only three more to make up a full pool, Thanks guys.
I only made it Total Points Scored. Diddnt make a Head to Head League, but can change that.
I created a second pool. For a Head to Head League.

Code 6MMPCM6E
Their are no 13 players in Ruckers Forum 1. Need one more player. Wheres Naru? .
To all members and prospective members
The situation as to participation in the Foxsport Fantasy Competition is as follows:-
Ruckers Forum 1 Pool - Pool Code 4TJAWK9Y
There is no limitation as to the number of members of this pool.
There are already 14 members in this pool and potential members are encouraged to join this pool asap.
Ruckers Forum 2 Pool - Pool Code 6MMPCM6E
This pool allows for internal competition between members of Pool 1. At this stage two members of Pool 1 has already joined this pool. There is a problem here - for the pool to operate we need 14 members.
Participants involved in Pool 1 is requested earnestly to join Pool 2 so as to make up the 14 member requirement.
There4 are now 14 members in Pool a - but still only 2 in Pool 2. We also need at least 14 members in League 2 - so please register as participants in Pool 2 as well.
The head to head league now has 5 players. The Overall league now as 15 players competing. So Naru yet. Not sure when he was last online here.

Mike ... does my name reflect?
I can't get in ... it won't let me sign in.
Looks as if I'll have to give this a miss.
Very frustrating.

Your name - Sleeping Giants - is reflected as a participant in Pool Ruckers Forum 1. I still cannot understand what problem you have about logging in. I think you must use your e-mail address and when asked for a secret code ask for one to be forwarded to you as having forgotten same. They will then sent you an e-mail with the code - which you will be given the option to change.
Try it that way and if you still have problems come back and we can try a different tack.
Thank you, Mike ... let's try as suggested.
Will revert.
