    Last pass? maybe I missed that. Anyhow I found a way to log in I just came across a different log in page that redirected me & it finally used my log in details. I'm on an older version of IE so I'm guessing an upgrade may be in order. I'm on IE7 (I know its old but when I last upgraded to IE8 it sucked). Couldnt fit in SBW or Digby into my line-up.

    Update: Just realised I had google chrome, used it & thank god it now works!

    Yeah Last Pass
    It is a password manager add on for Chrome/IE/Firefox/Opera which saves all your log in encrypted on your pc and on a server. Even if you format the PC you just enter your username and password again and all the info is retrieved.
    www.lastpass.com
    It is free to use

    Thanks Spooony, its working now without it (using Google Chrome) but I will keep this in mind for future times if it happens again.

    Yeah that add I mentioned is just to make things easier as using your browsers password manager is playing with fire. With IE probably java script was disabled

    Alright guys, same as last year I'm going completely open with my picks. Here's my team as selected for round 1. Any feedback? Advice?

    Way too early to select a team IMO.

    The golden rule of Fantasy is always wait until the Friday before the games to pick your team. Because it is impossible to make your picks without knowing every XV, who is injured, what conditions are like, who is in form etc.
    Gooch and nevermachine like this.

    But I'm SupeReady. And just keen for this competition to start. No doubt I will chop and change a few guys as we get closer to kick-off, just wanted some feedback on my selections. Generate some discussion about who could go great guns this year, who's getting too old etc.

    Interesting note, Wycliff Palu is still 350k.

    That's fair enough though isn't it? That's a pretty heavy traffic area.

    Quick question, Swat - what is going on with the teams in your screenshot? Have there been large numbers of very expensive transfers since I last surfaced?

    Not the jerseys, just the team names. Didn't notice that when I was selecting.

    I'm in.

    Why all the fox sports guys? I reckon remove them as they will get boring after a few weeks. Already bulk teams in the comp.

    From looking at my picks, it's plainly obvious I need Foxtel.

    This is a very preliminary make-up of my side. I'll have another look over the fixtures of Rounds 1/2/3 to make sure I can make transfers easily and once the match squads come out there'll be different changes.
    My main areas of concern are:
    Hooker- Is Bismarck really worth 400k? The budget seems a lot tighter this year and I'm thinking someone cheaper like Strauss or Ged Robinson might be better value. Thoughts?

    Backrow- Higginbotham or Pocock? Bam Bam comes up against the Brumbies so he should perform well, but Higginbotham was outstanding in 2011.

    Inside backs- With the Lions playing the Cheetahs, I went for Doppies and Jantjies over the likes of Olivier, O'Connor, SBW, Cruden etc.- who has everyone else gone for?
