2017 Irish Times 6x Nations : Fantasy Rugby - Winner: Darth Maulers

[Mick MacPaddywack]

Whilst I prefer SuperBru to any alternatives, the Irish Times version of this game allows you to pick a team easily (the budget is adequate) compared to RBS where you would need a couple of school kids or non participating professionals to sit on your bench or risk the probability of 3 or 4 of your team not being picked to play on matchday (because the budget is so restrictive).
RBS have just increased their budget by 25m which means that you can actually pick 15 professionals and still have a couple of schoolboys on the bench
Anyway, for those that are interested, I've set up a FISO League :

Irish Times 6x Nations Fantasy
League Name: FISO
Password: FISO17

Anybody interested in joining, please register their interest here, including their Team name.
All welcome !!

Website has been down most of today. Very annoying.

Totally agree. Ranked my second least favourite site. For Golf too.
Anything run by Silent Manager seems to run at this level of competence.
Still, hope you enjoy it despite that ...

I think my security filters were exasperating the problem. Ive toned them down, but its still slow and annoying.

Also says I have an incomplete team when I try to save it. Fingers crossed its Ok.

Sounds like you need to nominate a captain, or kicker depending on the website (I think its Captain for Irish Times)

It will NOT be ok if you do not nominate a Captain.

I have a captain. The site is crazily slow though.

[Sport Billy]

Appalling site. Haven't been able to get on all day. I did autopick when I registered, which it appears I'll be stuck with. ESPN is far better

[Ashers]

Are there any prizes for this game?

[TheBigLewandowski]

Lewa's Flyers joined. I hope...
Found that difficult!

You are in, mate. Welcome!

[Sport Billy]

Says team saved ..... incomplete team....

Lord knows if it's worked.

Full roster and captain selected

[trampie]

Pathetico Athletico pending.

[Hellcat]

HC Heroes pending.

[Mick MacPaddywack]

You should all have keen accepted, and be included in the league except for one - Kristofer had two teams, so I just accepted the first that I saw and didn't accept the second, which is It Comes so Quick. I just thought it would be fairer if we all only had one team (although there is no rule about this), hope you don't mind, Kristofer.

There may be a few more who haven't displayed yet (This morning I accepted about 5 more) but unfortunately one of the quirks with Silent Manager is this feature (lack of info). Another "feature" is that once I've accepted the team to the league I can no longer identify the owner, so please post your participation here, so that we know who is who.


cheers,
Mac
