TRF Tri Nations Fantasy Rugby

[QKXV]

Welll that's the first round and my first time over four comps to ever win a round. From now on it just gets harder, and this is where it's easy to mess up the trades/tactics due to injuries or not buying early enough and being caught out on the money front. If it wasn't for ole Kev scoring 2 of the three tries I got I would've been fourth, all in all it's going to be agreat tournament and the reason I like Testrugby is becuase it brings a whole new angle to watching matches and learning more about the game at the same time. Good luck for round 2

SO did I, earned me some profit as well as their prices have gone up now. A couple of suprises, I for one didn't think Habana should and would start. Should be a good round.

 

[esoj]

I have also picked my team. quite a lot of good cheap buys this round.

 

[QKXV]

Holmes, Gregan, Eslon all gone down in price. Specially Elsom's price drop was huge.

 

[dobrien7]

Shhhh! Some may not have spotted those...

Thanks Holmes, 100 points... nice try, pity about the scoreline. SA players would've earned lots of points due to tackles...in fact no, they probably won't.
