Oops. I knew I forgot something.

I'm not really even sure how I'm supposed to do this game. Do I just leave my roster alone? Do I make acquisistions? Can somebody please explain this particular fantasy game in terms that Prince Gustav of 30 Roc can understand? TIA

Wow, that lucky dip is not working out very well for me. They should call it unlucky dip, and I only have 5 transfers to fix it. Plus, I have really no idea how to fix it. I think I will look at Fence's roster for ideas!

You can make changes, a maximum of five between games, but you only get ten over the whole competition.

I made the maximum number of changes. I added Wilkinson, Chabal, Paterson, O'Driscoll and Dominici.

It looks like the outside backs score more points than the forwards. Is that true? I only changed out one of my forwards, but two OBs. I also realized that I had one player on my whole team that wasn't a bum, Stringer. What I really needed (instead of the unlucky dip) was a list the points that each player scored in the 2006 tournament. My goal at this point is to learn some and not win the Costanza.

Since I'm not going to have any better idea of what I'm doing if I were to make some transfers, I'm leaving my roster alone and hoping for the Bests.

Wilkinson is probably a good bet, England are up against Italy next, and should win easily. Chabal will not play against Ireland as well as he did against Italy. Forwards win matches, back decide by how much, ie without a good pack it is hard to do well, but backs are much more likely to score tries, and so earn more points.

I'm leaving my roster alone and hoping for the Bests. You'd have to look at my roster to get my joke. I have R, N, and S Best on my team.
