Cleancut

When is the Test Rugby Fantasy game starting - is the Hong Kong Barbarian match to be included?   I hope they give us the local Australian teams because otherwise - other than the Wallaby Test squad we will have problems to get the info timeously.

Ou Maaik, the Testrugby Fantasy comp for the British Lions tour does not include the Hong Kong game this weekend. The competition starts on 5 June with the game against the Force.

 

I don't think the FR organizers have any idea whether the coaches of teams like the Force and the Waratahs will be playing their full-strength teams in the S15 or against the Lions (or both) so it's quite hard for them to put these teams up before next week.

Thanks - sir.   I do not think the Force will play their Super 15 players on 6 June - when they have a Super 15 game on 9 June.   I think it will be regarded as a practive session for the :Lions and the Force will just put togethe some invitees from Minor leagues and probably from other franchises who are on the Super 15 squads - but not involved in the actual frontline teams.  So we will have to take the Lions players and pick 12 from the starting team and hope we hit the jackpot.

@mikey and rooy,

the general attitude here in OZ is the spXV teams will be naming their strongest teams possible,especially the rebls and force who have no chance of playng in the finals, the lions are effectively the games that players and coaches consider a must play, so im expecting full strength teams.

add to that the other aussie teams will not be playing spXV until round 20 and theres a good chance the lions will be used as one of the games to keep them match fit.
