WXV Round 1: The Debut of Christchurch and Rio de Janeiro

[nrich102]

Rest: Patrick Dangerfield

Pretty sure tanking's not in the spirit of the game...

Please tell me how it is tanking?

Pretty sure resting your best player is tanking, so is not naming a captain I think.

iirc tbag got sacked for tanking for doing far less than this.

resting your best player ensuring a loss.

So 0-2 is better then 1-1?

is a 10% boost of maybe 15 points worth losing about 40 though.

Better get rid of the resting rule then, no one should ever be allowed to rest a best XV player.

Also learn the rules, no Captain has been named because Ellis is my VC loophole.

Speaking of tanking, arent you a member of the Armadillos?

Fair enough on the captains point, my mistake/stupidity.

I haven't had a say on the dildos for about a six months now. However either all the old guys retire and we get nothing or we sell them and get very little, but we still get something

And how is that not exactly like Resting Danger in a game I can get very little out of, to maximise his output in a game that can define my season?

Yeah but maybe an extra 15 points next week is more valuable than the 40 this week?

I see no issue in this, it is tactics, but it could backfire.

Think it is a perfectly valid method

I have no issue with it either, it is not tanking at all in my books.

[Nige]

Can we borrow Danger and/or Barlow?  :P

If Dwyer and/or Colyer aren't named, we won't have a 4th mid.  :'(

[RaisyDaisy]

My tanking post was just a pure joke btw

I think it's fine too

Nothing wrong with a bit of strategy

JB has the right intentions when doing this, so it's clearly not tanking

[Holz]

I guess it's ok.

I'm always of the opinion you never know when you can jag a win, just would hate to see it cost a game if all the players fire.

[Ringo]

Holding off naming my team atm due to a number of issues like ASADA and injuries. may have to flood with forwards falling like flies.

If a premiership hangover had to apply to anyone, then you would think the men from Dublin would be the ones to have it  :P. Nevertheless, the might Dublin Destroyers would be looking to dispatch the Islanders, but how hard are they willing to go round 1? Who knows? Pacific have improved their list in the off-season, and if the winds go their way then anything could happen. Pacific will be excited at unleashing boom recruit Michael Barlow this weekend.
