how did you have more than 6 All Blacks in there?? isn't there a 6 man limit from any one team??

I cut a few springboks and replaced them with one too many all blacks, so I got hit with that red warning

I took the plunge and cut Aaron Smith to bring my All Blacks back down to 6. I had Cubelli on the bench anyway, so bringing in a cheap halfback gave me some money to bring in some big names if need be.

I dropped Bismarck DP to the bench because I imagine the Argies are going to be doing a lot of defending against the All Blacks, so Creevy should get his tackle count quite high.

I've got $144 k spare cash, and one transfer left for the round. Are there any more changes I should be looking at?

If you've already made your most important transfers for the round and the remaining transfer is a 'throw-away' as it were, I would suggest transferring Lucas Noguera Paz for Ramiro Herrera. Ramiro has been the starting tighthead for Argentina so if Kepu or Slipper were to withdraw late due to injury, at least you got a guy to sub in.

I couldn't bring myself to have Barrett as my 10 and I think Aus v SAF will be a tight affair so I've installed the Argie Sanchez as a bolter in the position..
