It’s back for the 2015 Rugby World Cup!
The Roar posters will get to score the form players each week and I will compile a Wallabies form team.
I will provide three form teams.
1 – A complete team that could take the field in any fixture. It must have a recognised goal kicker, players must be in their predominant position, a player calling lineouts must be selected (thought not necessarily at lock, ie Dave Dennis calls lineouts and plays at blindside).
2 – The best players selected in the good old Australian tradition of pick the best players and find a spot for them. A player is eligible for any position they have started in at Super or International rugby. Team does not have to have a kicker or line out caller.
3 – Recent form rules. It will be a complete team, as per one, but scores are weighted by their recency, since form at the end of the season before the Tests counts for more than early season games. I will publish this team from the third week onwards.
How it works.
On Mondays I will submit my scores in an article.
Roar posters will reply to this post with their own scores. I will compile the scores and submit the form team by Thursday.
The rules. Score players out of 10 (half scores allowed). Post scores for players who have excelled >= 7.5 and = 1 and >= 3.5/10. Do not post scores for a run of the mill performance, ie between 4 and 7.
