Get a preview of Super Rugby Round 13 fantasy rugby and six bargain priced prospects.
For those playing fantasy rugby game www.testrugby.com, we are also naming players to watch. You can also join the Super Rugby Tips conference at SuperBru. It is difficult to afford a team if playing salary cap fantasy rugby, so you may have to buy bargains, but there are enough new players in Super Rugby 2015 to give you some options. 2015 seems tough to fill a squad without going over budget. The key is to sell players who have the bye straight away and buy them back early.
In fantasy rugby game www.testrugby.com there are some problems.
Firstly, with limited trades you have to allow for international players being rested.
Managers have to look long-term with some teams like the Highlanders having had the bye twice.
There are plenty of injuries too, so it is important to check the Super Rugby team lists.
If you run out of trades then you have to minimise the damage with locks probably the lowest scoring position to have a non player in. Also if you are keeping players who have the bye or are injured, make sure you keep the cheapest players as their values will drop less and they won’t take up as much of the salary cap. In some games like www.testrugby.com you can buy trades if you are desperate.
There are two three team bye rounds happening in Round 13 with the Chiefs, Bulls and Cheetahs having the bye. Watch out, because the Crusaders, Stormers and Force are out next week, so it really is a battle of who can ration those trades given how many players from these six teams will not be playing Super Rugby over the next two weeks.
Some bargain priced players worth purchasing to avoid losing players to the two bye rounds are
Waisake Naholo (Highlanders) – This Highlanders winger is the top points scorer in www.testrugby.com Super Rugby 2015 and the top try scorer with eight tries.
Akira Ioane (Blues) – What a last month this Blues loose forward has had. He was the top points’ scorer in Super Rugby Round 12.
Jaco Kriel (Lions) – He is one of the unsung heroes of Super Rugby, much like his Lions team, but Kriel was one of the best players in Super Rugby Round 12.
Samu Kerevi (Reds) – Despite playing for the lowly Reds, Samu Kerevi has the ability to get plenty of go-forwards with nine against the Hurricanes in his last game and two tries.
Nehe Milner-Skudder (Hurricanes) – The hot stepping Milner-Skudder is an excitement machine and should really enjoy playing the Sharks this week.
James Marshall (Hurricanes) – You will get about a month out of James Marshall who will start for the Hurricanes and kick goals. He seems to fit into Beauden Barrett’s shoes so easily.
Franco Mostert (Lions) – Franco Mostert is another one of the Lions unsung heroes, but the big lock made the www.testrugby.com Team of Round 12.
