IPB Fantasy 6 Nations League

[NewApproach]

Hi folks,

I should have done something about organising this before now, but in the absence of anything else I thought I'd give this a go.

You can register a team here. It's $20 in, you can transfer the funds to me on Stars or Full Tilt.

I can also accept on Boyles, although Stars or Tilt are preferential. If transferring in €, according to xe.com, $20=€14.65.

I doubt there will be more than a dozen entries given the short timescale, so it will be winner takes all.

Just PM me for the league name and password, and transfer details. I will only accept the entry once funds are received, to save any potential hassle that may arise.

Any other questions just post below or PM me!

This was done last year and was good craic, so try and join up for the $20! We're all rugby fish anyway!

edit: In case you don't know, first match is tomorrow at 7.45, so entries have to be by then!

[Emmet]

In like flynn.

Rugby Whale here...

Will try get some cash on stars/tilt during the week so.

[NewApproach]

Bumping this. Will be a bit of craic for the duration of the 6 Nations for whoever is involved!

Id prefer to have some sort of sweat. I am running lolbad at FF so the FSN will be a struggle.

Be balla and add a weeks wages to the prize pool, only 200k right?

You can see the team sheets on http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/rugby_union/default.stm, just pick a random team from them if you want!

[shrapnel]

nothing to see here!!! :-)

[Emmet]

What's the rules regarding kicks? Have they changed the scoring system from last year?

Copy and paste job someone please?

[shrapnel]

Full Appearance (player starts and finishes the game) 3 pts

Part Appearance (player starts but doesn't finish the game) 2 pt

Substitute Appearance (player comes on as a substitute) 1 pt

Try 5 pts

Assist (last pass, charge down or kick to the try scorer) 3 pts

Penalty Kick, Conversion and Drop Goals (all players) 1 pt

Winning Team Member 1 pt

Yellow Card -1 pt

Red Card -2 pts

Official (RBS) Man of the Match 5 pts

(i can access it through my proxy. i just can't log on)

[NewApproach]

Anyone who kicks points gets 1pt, same as last year IIRC

[shrapnel]

isn't it all players from the team get a point for each kick converted?

[Emmet]

Whats the prizepool at?

I reckon we should accept entrants right up until start of play tonight?

[NuckChorris]

Inski and shipped.

[NuckChorris]

Also doing this made me realise how little faith I have in Wales!!!

[NewApproach]

So far we have:

Myself
Emmet
fumyname
RDIII
Shrapnel
Aya14
NuckChorris
SICKPUPPY

All have paid bar SICKPUPPY, who should be paid by the weekend.

Also Gilligan-Black says he will put in a team this evening, and The C Kid also expressed some interest yesterday.

Including SICKPUPPY, there is currently $160 in the pot, and possibly another couple of entries to come.

I'll leave registration open until 7.00, that we we can have everything finalised prior to kickoff.

[The C Kid]

Entered there, will sort out money over weekend.

[Strewelpeter]

I'm in if I can get a team set up in time on the crap internet connection im working off

Can someone pm me the league name and password please

[Strewelpeter]

I'll ship on boyles if you send me your details Conor.

also has anyone got a link to all the starting teams ... they are all over the place in thre IT

edit found the bbc link thanks

[NewApproach]

Wales v England
Italy v Ireland
Scotland v France

[Guest]

Paid there well sent to you on Boyles Conor
unrealted but ireland under 20 minus 10pts at 10/11 versus Italy looks good to me
very talented irish team.

[Emmet]

+1 on that bet! What is the next margin given?

[Guest]

+1 on that bet! What is the next margin given?

down to 4/5 on boyles cant see any other handicap markets and nothing on oddschecker.com
live streaming on rte sport too

[Emmet]

RTE sport only for Island of Ireland though .

Disaster, my brother wasn't a million miles from this team. Have seen plenty of them playing a good few times.

[shano_88]

.

[NewApproach]

Any last entries for this? You have half an hour or so to get onto me about it!

[RichieM]

just got my team in there. will ship money now on FT. If my entry is to late just ship back but since I picked so quick I think you are prob better with me in. French forwards instead of backs so I think I will be decimated by tomorrow

[NewApproach]

OK, half an hour to kick off in the first match, and our runners are:

Emmet
NewApproach
fumyname
Raoul Duke III
shrapnel
Aya14
SICKPUPPY
NuckChorris
Gilligan-Black
The C Kid
Strewelpeter

11 entries is pretty good I think considering the short notice.
That gives us $220 to the winner.

May the best luckiest man win!

Also, If I get any entries in the next 15 mins I'll accept them too, but thats unlikely.

[shrapnel]

lol, i'm a moron. next time i should probably check who is actually playing!! at least 8 points down the drain after just the first half!!!

[The C Kid]

Obviously replaced Ashton with Shane Williams at the last minute. Good stuff.

[eagle eye]

Damn missed this.

[Emmet]

Ashton

[Raoul Duke III]

Ashton

yeah except I picked the 2 donks who got yellows

fairly turgid stuff tbf

[Guest]

Id the huns on the handicap thought it was entertaining.
first two rugby bet winners in ages after the 20s beat the italians
might go for the treble ireland to cover 12pts againest Italy tommorow Boyles give evens

[shrapnel]

i really need to pay attention to who is actually playing next time. in the mean time

COME ON FRANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

god i love watching them attack, but god i hate watching them defend!

[shrapnel]

anyone know who got "man of the match" in each game?

[Raoul Duke III]

I don't think there was one in the Irish game

Medard and Harinordoquoy scored for me but somehow managed to not pick O'Driscoll

[Emmet]

SOB got man of the match in the Irish game.

Parise was robbed

Parisse was everywhere and got some great man and ball tackles.

[Guest]

The results of week one are up with elstuntman in first 84pts my good self just 2 behind then next best at 79 loads too play for.

[NewApproach]

Pretty close, all to play for! I was raging, thought I had Medard in, not until earlier I noticed it was Mermoz instead

[shrapnel]

note to self: look at team sheets before making selection (what a fuckin idiot!!!)

[Emmet]

Shnap.

[Raoul Duke III]

chip leader

massive strategic call here; dump all my Irish players imo

[Strewelpeter]

I knew it was a bad idea to try to make my changes when I've been up since 4AM Thursday morning. Completely messed the transfers up and I can't see anyway to reset and do it again ... am I stuck ?

[Strewelpeter]

All I was trying to do was get Shaw out and get Tindall and Ashton in

Somehow I managed to get the non starting Halfpenny instead of four try scoring Ashton and keep the non starting Shaw in dropping the try scoring Haskell instead.

FML

[The C Kid]

Game over for anyone without Ashton really.

[NuckChorris]

Game over for anyone without Ashton really.

yup
