To all those who are interested in fantasy rugby and the NRL there are a couple of websites up and running but here is a link for the one I found best last seasonhttp://dreamteam.nrl.com/rl


For all those who played on the fox website, this one is also free but better to play with all the stats trackers etc.

I've set up a private league for RLFans members (if anyone is interested in joining that is). 16 teams maximum im afraid.

The league id: 519594

Joined!,

got to say I prefer the foxsports one though, a lot simpler plus it seems too easy to make a 'dream' team in the NRL one, you really don't have to make too many sacrifices.

Good luck though, I'll post a new thread when the foxsports one opens up!

TBH, I did both last season and as much as I enjoyed fox, I like aall the little quirks that this one provides.

Ill be keeping an eye out for the fox registration and ill join you there when its up and running.

I'm in.
Hard to get a good team, especially in the forwards as there all really expensive. The one's who get the most points are like Hannant, Stagg etc. The likes of Hayne and Inglis aren't as dear but i haven't looked at the scoring system, forwards must get more points.
I've gone for Burgess and Ryles because there cheap, must be because they weren't there last year so they've put them in at a set price regardless.

Forwards are the key, especially the 4 subs you have, make sure they're all starting forwards, or a bloke like Dan Hunt who gets plenty of game time.

Ryles and Burgess were the first two I picked. I think they'll be the buys of the year, injury permitting.

I actually prefer the official NRL one these days.

I won 500 bucks on the Fox one in 2007 for winning a section (ran top 20 overall) then they changed the scoring and it lost it for me. A bit like VNRL when it changed its scoring and stuffed the game up.

I played last season and put a really big pack in, which got me plenty of points. Pick a good half back combination as well. Dont worry too much about your backs as long as they play regularly.

Not bad for until I start tweaking or unless someone gets injured pre-season.

Yeah I played this one last season for the first time and really enjoyed it, there is so much going on in the game. Last season I finished in the top 2,000 out of 70,000+ not bad for my first attempt IMO.

joined as Roosters1908

Just 10 spaces left. Not long until the 12th March.

Made a world beating 13 for a laugh on my first try, but it would get hammered during the origin period so changes will be made in next week or two, once early trial injuries mount up.

Reserves are- Mason, Priddis, Waerea-Hargreaves, M Aubusson, J Graham, N Emmet, Carney, Kelly, Turner, Covell, Winterstein, Dugan

Burgess is a must i feel. bar a season recking injury he shouldnt miss to many games and wont be affected by origin or test period

Not bad, mines better

Priddis will struggle to get a game IMO with Fien and Young in the team, Waerea-Hargreaves is injured for a couple of months.

i knew this but forgot about it. shame on me, a roosters supporter!

Who is the manager of 'Bradford Sea Eagle' in our league?

Make sure you have a full team before start of the season or the competition organisers remove you from the league mate.
