2016 British xv Discussion thread

Man, can't believe how close I was to trading Cotchin to the Hurricanes to get Big Stefan. Cotch averaging a tick over 196, Stef averaging 133. Crazy.

Noooooooo, damn the Minson for Currie trade :( I knew Cotch was in for a good season :/

Wasn't just for Cotch either, i remember a Cotch + N13 + Minson offer ;) (i think)

I won't complain with Jelwood though :P and big Alex Pearce hahaha

Haha yeah, I think you were gonna give me a 2nd rounder back as well or something. Either way, would've been one of the worst trades ever for me, but at the time was pretty even!

Yeah, not sure anyone could of predicted this big of a fall from Stef, he'd been very consistent. Trades were fair at the time :/

Kinda wish I kept Currie tbh.

Not that i was really doubting it but Rob Murphy plays on!!! woooo :P

Have we any suggestions what to do for rd 15.

I am just wondering whether we have a ten player per team Rivalry Round as we do not have a designated rivalry round this year.

Happy to have a break if that is the opinion of all.  Over to you all for discussions.

The more competition the better imo, thats if someone is happy to organise it of course!

Do we have rivalries? If so, what are they?

[GoLions]

Is there any reason not to do North vs South over all 3 rounds?

I have a question regarding a rule that i thought just made logical sense but today i was told that rule is not the case in worlds so I'm wondering if it is not a rule in British either.

Say for example a you have a midfielder late out and you have two pure defenders on your utilities and no mids on your emergencies but you have a forward or defender with a mid status as well. Does that Fwd/Defender move to the mid spot and your first named emergency come on in the fwd/def?

Nope. You'd get first preference emg oop.

Thanks mate,

That really screws with my head, makes no sense....

But utilities can be moved?

[Ringo]

Utilities can only be moved if they are in the position of the player they are replacing eg a mid must replace mid etc from utility and then first named emergency comes on as utility.
If however your utilities are DPP then they can replace either position and then the first named emergency comes on.

So a nice trick is to name DPP as utilities.
