The world famous(ish) Pistonheads Fantasy Six Nations comp!

[TheGreatSoprendo]

Yes folks, with barely 10 days to go until the kick off of the 2008 Six Nations and me as excited as a kid at Christmas, it's surely time for the, now traditional, Pistonheads Fantasy Six Nations Competition!

I've just signed up to play the Scrum Fantasy Rugby 2008 game at http://scrum.fantasyleague.com It's based on the forthcoming Six Nations tournament, which starts at 14:00 GMT on Saturday, 2nd Feburary.

The game is FREE to play and there are some fantastic prizes to be won.

OUR LEAGUE PIN IS 728 - THE LEAGUE NAME IS "Pistonheads"

Simply create a team, click the link on the email you're sent, and then click on "Join New League". You'll then be offered 2 options... either create a new league or join an existing league... stick 728 in the latter box and you're in! Well if I deem you worthy enough...

Thanks. My technicians have been working tirelessly for literally seconds to ensure that the link is now fully functional.

One request - once you've signed up, could you please post your team name on this thread so that everyone can tell who's who?

Cheers!

Yes M.A.M, maybe in some bizarre parallel universe, but not in the real world, eh? Although looking at your fantasy team, England have a much better chance of winning something than you do!

Besides, Warren Gatland is confident of victory in the opening game which would put something of a dent in England's Grand Slam (or indeed, triple crown) hopes. Here's hoping his confidence is not unfounded.

Finally, just to confirm my team name is 'Gerald Davies's tache'.

Thanks to everyone who's joined so far and the best of luck to you all (some of you are gonna need it!).

Im in as Pupdog Tigers

Had a look through some of the teams. Why would you select Chris Patterson and Jonny Wilkinson in the same team??? Only one can score points for kicking at goal and Patterson is playing in a team that night not win too many games or score that many try's ???

So what do we think the England team will be;

Sheridan
Regan
Vickery
Kay
Borthwick
Haskell
Moody
Easter

Gomersall
Wilkinson
Vainikolo
Flood
Tindall
Strettle
Tait (please god not Balshaw)

Good to see we have a few more teams now.

Looking forward to the team announcements next week, as I guess there is no point thinking too hard about the perfect team until then.

Fading's Fools, I presume? Welcome!

Probably going to regret this but all those who have selected flannery for their team should know that he has been banned for 8 weeks for stamping and will probably miss the entire six nations.

I mention this in the spirit of sportsmanship and in the hope that you will let me join your league.

In case you are wondering who I am I am afriend of Jinx. who in turn introduced me to piston heads.

I saw that - I knew about the citing but, having seen the incident, decided there wasn't much in it and that he wouldn't be banned. I understand he is appealing. Ho hum.

Silly question but how do you make changes and view the league. Just logged back in and can't seem to do either ????

Click on the "My team" link on the left hand menu, and you should see your team with some options below it which include one to make changes. Below that there is a section with links to any mini leagues you are part of.

You're in! Welcome to Pistonheads and welcome to the league.
