Well, it's not the best selection for a first-five, but I guess it may make them marginally less useless if they get involved in a ruck from time-to-time. Pretty much a skill to use for set-piece dominant Forwards.
Oh, lol. Would it be frowned upon/allowed if I changed it? :)

Nah. Go right ahead. We're still miles off getting 2 XVs at the moment. I'd rather have sign-ups compatable to their position.

At the moment, we might be looking at some friendlies against a composite Cricsim team or something. Definitely well short of Forwards too.

I can change to being a forward if it would help? Especially potentially a hooker, as I know that no one really wanted to be that on CricSim. I just thought with being a forward on CricSim I would be a back on here.

Nah, we'll get there eventually. Be who you want to be.

Actually, I'm interested to see if I can get a XV of CricketWeb only guys. If I can, there's scope for them becoming the SR 6th team to ensure no byes.

I don't understand this fifteen there were other players such as eddie at hooker...

Ripper nailed halfback before I did - so if there is only going to be one CW team I will pick another position

The XV above misses out anyone who's signed up for Seasonal Rugby at cricsim. My suspicion is that we won't get enough sign ups here for multiple teams, so if we can get fifteen sign ups who aren't on Cricsim, then I might admit the CricketWeb XV to the Cricsim Rugby Championships. I was looking to expand to five teams over there, but that introduces a bye, which the CricketWeb team could fill.

It might be the only way to get simming here.

Only need 5 more people - PM James he seems to like his rugby tell him we need a prop.

Also Burgey - Vimes people like that.

I'd rather stab myself in the eyes with Andy Monk's pointy shoes than take part in this.

Seriously though, not really keen to get all that involved, but you can create a player for me if you like, heef.

Which abilities would be suited to flyhalves? I'm assuming I'm best to pick one from bullet pass/electric step/explosive punter/sticky hands?

Explosive Punter

Maybe one of these three Clapo - A flyhalf doesn't need a bullet pass just needs to shuffle it along nicely to this centres.

I would prefer my centres to have sticky hands to receive the passes from you - hopeffully Ripper will give you good service and you won't need sticky hands.

Electric step might be ok if you want to be like Aaron Cruden or Quade.

But it is up to you - and I don't mind what you pick...

Went for wing as I was a scrawny kid who could run fast it was where I played. Used to fill in with the kicking duties too, but didn't think the options would produce a decent fly half.

We OK for scrum halfs? Could change to that if needs

I seem to not have made my way onto the list.

If that's for some specific reason, by all means keep me off it, but I just thought I'd point it out. :)

Aren't you on Cricsim? If not, then yes, you should be in there.
I don't think he's the same person that's on CricSim.

ftr, don't Hurricane, howe and Clapo have CricSim accounts? Although, they didn't sign for the sim, so fair enough including them here.
