Do we want to post here, or in a weekly thread, our line ups for banter and ridicule?
If I have the worst round, I'll gladly point out the basis of my idiocy.

Player selections for this week are in. I’ve changed my team about ten times, wasting too much time so have locked in my team and ain’t going to look at it again. Injuries have made it pretty difficult.
Anyone using any boosters this week? Brave if you do.

@Canes4life just logged on to see half my fucking team weren't playing this week.

@mariner4life Coma, amnesia, found on a deserted island after a few years ship wreaked.....
Had a break posting for a few years, lurked a fair bit and typed out a few replies and lost confidence in replying....weird ah

The injuries for round 1 are ridiculous.
> I don't ever remember seeing so many out before.
I bet you could put a winning team together just from the injury list.That could be cos they've always been shit with letting that info out before!
-
The fact so many first choice players are unavailable actually adds to the interest of this competition in the first round.

So many players in Fantasy have selected injured players. For example 17% of players still have Tom Wright in their team, 16.1% of players have Billy Proctor, 15.8% of players have Sotutu, 10% have Love etc.
Players have even selected Reds players even though they aren't playing this week.
Fair to say most of us will at least escape from being bottom of the log after round 1.
-
Over 50% of players have likely selected Roigard and McKenzie as their 9/10 combo even though McKenzie is playing 15 this week. 61% of players have picked Roigard and 51% of players have selected McKenzie.
-
It is good it shows if a player is starting or a bench player too...they have some parts set up well, others less so...
-
Who's willing to share their team?
I'm happy to post mine for this week once the season has kicked off.
-
Yeah it won't be perfect but it's great they have the flags on players whether they are selected and starting etc, makes it a bit easier to work out. I have Roigard as my captain, my thinking is he's going to be a machine racking up the points in Fantasy given how involved he is in each play.

Yeah he's my captain as well. My thinking is he'll need to do the bulk of the decision making tomorrow which will mean he has plenty of involvements. Let's hope he brings that deadly sniping game.

I picked them as 9/10
I think McKenzie could be worth more points from 15. Especially if he is goal kicking. But I didn't spend too long looking at the point scoring system. -
