I think with the burkester's form being what it is you have a sporting chance of avoiding the spoon! :D

great round for me, Stringer, Hodgson and Thomas did it for me really but perhaps the biggest improvement was actually having players who were in thir sides!

Ibanez, Magne, Pelous (Fra), Corry(Eng), Easterby, O'Callaghan(Ire), Ma Bergemasco (Ita), AR Jones(Wal), Stringer(Ire), Hodgson, Lewsey, Cueto (Eng), O'driscoll (Ire), Fritz(Fra), Byrne(Wal)

Looks pretty solid. I have to be honest & say that 'cos the comp doesn't differentiate between forward postions I went for 8 back-rowers on the grounds they're most likely to score.

Major changes for me this week: I've currently got Gareth Thomas (out for comp) & Heymans, Bonnaire & Voyce (all benched). If I was Heymans I'd be pretty galled (pardon the pun!) to be dropped; he scored 2 tries v The Micks & has been my top boy over the first 2 weeks apart from Charlie H.

The 3rd week update is posted. The top 4 are still as you were, but Anna & Steds both climb above Simmy who slips down to 7th.

Matteh's unsurprisingly at the bottom after entering the comp 2 rounds late, but he's only 5 points behind the ailing burkey who's been in since the off! :p

2) Dave Richards Rod Hull's Emu XV 146

Well a dire round for England, but a good one for marc who climbs into 2nd & narrows my lead considerably.

Steds & Simmy climb above Anna (ooer, missus! :D) & Matteh's late arrivals are now above Burkey's stragglers.

Yeah well, I was being optimistic that the up & coming youngsters would be given a go....Gareth Delve for example....but it didn't quite go to plan lol.

Back for 2007

Yep, it's that time of year when English Rugby fans polish up our excuses for getting whipped by smaller Celtic nations! If anyone fancies a bash at doing better than their national selectors I've set up a League again. Just go here:

http://scrum.fantasyleague.com

After you've registered to join the CW league click on the "Private League" link & enter the name "CW" and the League PIN "828". If you played last year you shouldn't even have to register again.

All welcome, the more the merrier, etc. :)
