Fantasy Super Rugby 2014

[Tangawizi]

3 weeks off!

Not going to know what to do with myself Fridays to Sundays.

Currently sitting 2nd in Fox, 66 points behind Fiona Webb. That comp still looks very open though and it's quite possible someone could even win from outside the top 100 at this point.

Got a 144 point break from 2nd in ARU - officially counting chickens there.

Time to start calling friends I think - corporate box at the Bledisloe sounds sweet!

Do you live in Sydney Benaud or getting the flights as well in ARU comp? I agree you've got it won. You could almost stop trading now and still win it actually.

 

[Benaud]

If I win, I'll be getting flights from Brisbane.

Extended the lead a little last week. A lot can happen in 5 weeks but surely I'll be right. Have told mates to free up that weekend.

People risking Coles this week? Not sure what to make of his injury chat.

 

[Tangawizi]

Could be a few backlines in disarray this weekend with Folau and Ben Smith out.

 

[Benaud]

Kudos to whoever found Speight to replace them. Especially in Fox!

 

[Benaud]

Getting to the business end now. One game left.

ARU comp is all over. Freaking pumped for the Bledisloe! Moving on.

Fox comp is far from safe yet. 46 points is a handy lead with just the final to go but one player can potentially swamp that. A few very tough decisions left that could turn the season.

Anyone else here still playing these things?

Best of luck Benaud, my interest has dived once I missed on our private $$ league. Playing catchup for too long

Dear Mr Benaud,

If you PM me I can give you my phone number or e-mail so that you have contact details when you have the invitations ready.

In other news.... can still only have 6 of a team on the field so trying to work out which positions to leave off.....

 

[Benaud]

Hahaha. Thanks SFR. You never know I guess! But just in case, I wouldn't cancel your other arrangements that weekend...

Yeah that 6 max rule has thrown me a bit. Didn't expect it this round and was all set for a 17-man assault to finish. I'm thinking the front row is probably the weakest fantasy link for these 2 teams and might even ultimately leave out all 3.

 

[Tangawizi]

You must be almost as nervous as the players with $10k riding on tomorrows match.

Good luck!

 

[Benaud]

Cheers mate.

Yeah fortunately have a full on day tomorrow so won't have time to think about it until just before kickoff.

Will be a packed house at my place come 7:30pm though! Then they'll kick right in. Will be riding every prop's tackle like a game breaking try!

 

[namtrak]

Congratulations Benaud!!! I imagine the 2nd place getter is kicking themselves over Bernard Foley

 

[Benaud]

Thanks namtrak!

Just confirmed then.

Took out the ARU comp by 185 to score a corporate box at the Bledisloe for 5 people with flights and accom!

And the Fox comp by 18 to score $10K!

I love this game.

 

[Tangawizi]

Nice work! The Fox comp ended up a bit closer than I thought it would.

Happy Days for you.

 

[Benaud]

Certainly closer than I was hoping it would! What a week to sack Foley for the first time all year...

Anyway, alls well that ends well!
