My players add up to $2,990,000 with $10,000 left over making a total value of $3,000,000.

Just go with that I guess.

Righto I'm in. Team name Peptides FC.

Spent all $3m.

Cheering the Aussies of course.

Wouldn't hurt me financially is Argentina won

Belgium, like a few other posting here, I think will be the dark horse.

Is the C set like DT or is it a rolling lockout that could potentially allow a VC loophole to be done is this comp?

Thanks for the tips, I did some research and all those names popped up :p
I also learned that Neymar may miss the opener and Toure (or youre I forgot what he is called) may also miss the first game.
Where did you see this mate? Do you have any links?

Does anyone know if we get to see likely line-ups prior to the game or do we have to wait X minutes before each game starts?

Go to www.yaya-toure.com for them saying toure is in doubt for the opener. The neymar one I can't find again but it was a link someone posted on fantasyfootballscout.co.uk

Also if someone could explain to me about the $2.7 million rule that would be great :) (just check above on my previous post for the question, on my phone so hard to quote now that I've already started this message)
Yeah it's on foxsports now that Toure is in doubt for the opener.

Your whole team including C is set at lockout like DT.

Don't know if anyone else has noticed, but Brazil and Mexico have two games in round 1 of fantasy and none in the 2nd round.

This is one of the things that annoys me about fantasy football (soccer).

Yeah I assumed it wouldn't happen in the WC, but for some reason Russia play their first game after Brazil's second game.

I was hoping I'd have to pay minimal attention, now I'll actually have to work around this shower.  :(

Can't find anywhere that they've said that Brazil and Mexico have a double, but they have said that Russia vs. Korea will be part of Matchday 1 even though it starts after the deadline.

Correct you are ML. I must have saw it on the VS one, rather than the Foxsports one. Apologies.  :-[

No worries. Think I heard somethig like that with another comp as well.

Just makes it more straightforward which is always great.

Yeah, honestly don't know why VS are doing it like they are.

In Foxsports, despite the games being in a different order, each team will only play once per round. No easy gets!
