Cheers, I didn't do much of a job hiding my true identity

[Scrumhead]

Unless you’re a secret agent or Batman I think you’ll be OK.

[BaldiePete]

Yay, top of the league (unlike Scotland )

I thought I'd put an Englishman in my team in the spirit of things. Just so happens that Englishman was Tom Curry.

I think I can trump that picked the wrong garbisi brother and himeno, neither in match day squad

[Scrumhead]

What happened with Himeno? I picked him too and he was listed in their starting XV. Did he pull out late?

Between him, Woki and Kerevi, I got a sum total of 12 points!!!

Yeah, he pulled out on the day.

I also fecked up by picking a Samoan player, who because Samoa didn't play at weekend didn't get any points in round one.

Ah now, we must have the same rugby brains I also picked kerevi and woki!

Baldie, you can't be far off of top of the whole thing?

[BaldiePete]

Unfortunately not. I’m currently 5379th with 914 pts in total. The leader has 1164 pts I still have eight players still to play this round though.

[switchskier]

Wonder if the leaders have all played their bonuses already. Wish I had this week. Captaining Roigard was a good move but it could have been massive.

[paddy no 11]

I want for grant williams over roigard against my better judgement

[BaldiePete]

Aargh. I have Reffell in my team and he has withdrawn after getting injured in the warm-up

[Dampanimal]

Long time lurker here. Hence LongRFC. Got pretty lucky with Dmac triple captain!

[BaldiePete]

FFS - now Koch has dropped out after the warm up.

[paddy no 11]

Switch must have had penaud as captain tonight

Triple captain. Was a good decision I feel.

Have played a lot of my team already this week so some reversion to come.

[bruce]

Nearly 500 points on a single player.....

[bruce]

Not sure how this captain scoring works, doesn't seem to be double points. I had Ramos as captain and got 128 points, where as his normal score seemed to have been 87.

[paddy no 11]

That was ramos triple kicker score I.e. 87

[paddy no 11]

Looking forward to round 4

[BaldiePete]

I’m plummeting downwards as fast as Eddie Jones’ reputation.

[paddy no 11]

Who is longrfc?
