ERE Fantasy League - Week Nine


By Andy Reynolds
December 8 2005

What a week the GP Round 9 was. Not only did we lose to the (at that point) worst team in the GP, Bristol managed to beat the best team. Life was looking bleak for us in the blue, black and white. But after last week's showing against Glaws things are looking up again. On with the Fantasy League.

 
The internationals return this week which means that the second transfer window is now open. So do you welcome back your internationals or stick with your club players that have coped well in their absence? The choice, as they say, is yours.
  • Once again you can make up to 5 substitutes.
  • The final team after subs must still comprise 3 players from each of Bath, Briz, Glaws, Saints and Wuss.
  • No two teams mates in paired positions (applies to props, locks, flankers, centres, and wings).
  • Deadline for transfers is 14:00 26th December 2005 (kick-off of Wuss v Bath)
Let's take a quick at the fantasy league:
 
The Lardies continue to score well but have a long way to go to catch "Gamblers Choice" at the top of the league.  For the first time a Brizzler managed team gets the worst score of the week, and that accolade goes to "Fairs Flair!" managed by Keen Brizzer.
 
Dorset Boy's bubsy makes the greatest leap up the table this week; "Finn's Giants" make an impressive leap of 15 places.  Robbinho on the other hand obviously has been putting enough into his half time chat as "Band of Fools" are slip sliding away.
 
Wuss manage to have the best and worst players this week:  Shane Drahm, who converted his own try and slotted over 5 penalties, and Kai Hortsmann who managed to get sent off after a second yellow card.
