    Top 6: Crusaders, Sharks, Highlanders, Hurricanes, Stormers, Brumbies.

    I don't think the Chiefs will make it in without Sonny bill and secondly because teams will bring their A game against them because they are the defending champs.

    I don't see big things in store for the Reds.

    Beauden Barrett to be player of the season.

    Still enough class in the Chiefs to be in there imo. The Highlanders looking strong with some good signings, only checked the squads yesterday. There are 9 teams with a good chance of making the top 6, it's gonna be a good one I reckon. Can't wait for my favorite part of the year to begin - rugby season!

    I note no Benson Stanley in the Blues squad and no mention of him moving either, anyone know anything?
     
  4. Rego RS Hutchinson

    He moved to France, playing for ASM Clermont Auvergne
     
  5. Jabba HJ Bots

    Who cares, he was the most overrated player in the s15

    Fritz Lee better get some game time at the Chiefs.

    Looking forward to Ardie Savea playing at the (supposed :rolleyes:) higher level. He was a beast in the NPC this season. How does Simon Lemalu not get a slot in Super Rugby? Bizarre.
     
  7. Droos JP Rhodes

    I though he was a decent player, solid allround centre, they will miss him for sure.

    Adam Thompson a BIG loss for the Highlanders - their top try scorer missing.

    Edit: Yeah, I also like Fritz Lee from the small stints I have seen of him.

    I still cannot fathom how it wasn't a penalty try.

    Lol, beheading is an understatement for that.

    Some of the prices of the players are way over-priced. LOL at Corey Flynn being the highest front rower.

    Pat Lambie 13 lol.

    Good to see Clyde Rathbone back.

    Might pick up Folau at $6.5. I think Afeaki is relatively cheap.
     
  18. Rego RS Hutchinson

    Yeah, essentially picking up the essentials but also picking up the bargains as well, Afeaki being one.

    Cool. Just check out the scoring system as well to get a solid idea of who to pick based on how you think they will score. No matter what, always try to pick guys who you think will score tries.

    Ended up with a pretty solid team. I'll probably change a couple of players as it comes closer to the season hehe I like playing :p but yeah definitely ended up with a solid team and bench - the bench are just starters as well really. Budget gives you a bit to play with. Only allowed 3 players from a team is annoying though.
