Hot on the heels of the Six Nations, Super Rugby starts this weekend as the Southern Hemisphere’s finest prepare to do battle. And once again, with the Rugby World Cup later this year, it’s an especially important tournament for those involved.
We’ve set up three Fantasy Super Rugby leagues for the 2015 tournament on SuperBru, so read on and decide which one (or ones) you want to join.
FANTASY
The full fantasy experience – select your squad, pick a starting XV, captain and kicker every week and win points depending on how they go on the pitch. The SuperBru game scores you points for things like tackles and metres made, not just tries and assists, which makes it comfortably the most rewarding one around.
You can join our pool by clicking here, or search for ‘The Rugby Blog’ (pool name) or ‘haulgoes’ (pool code) in the ‘Find pools’ section.
FANTASY LITE
The Super Rugby Fantasy Lite game gives you the fun of picking real-life players without the complexity of managing a fantasy squad – no transfers, no starting line-ups, and limited choice meaning you won’t get overwhelmed by the number of available players – only the stars feature. Every week you pick a front five forward, a loose forward, an inside and outside back, and a kicker from the collated bands, scoring points based on their performance. Perfect for those who don’t have the time for the full fantasy experience.

TIPPING
The traditional SuperBru prediction game – pick a winner and a winning margin for each match, and you are rewarded for how close you are to the outcome. Simples.
Join the pool here, otherwise you can guess by now what the pool name to search for is, or alternatively try the code ‘oopsjamb’.
Good luck!
