I've watched super rugby. Enough to know that JOC is rubbish at first five. Everyone surely can see that.
Calm down guys I reviewed more than the players Skippos suggested. Based on ratings Droos is still on top but the overall rating doesn't mean too much.
You'll be Div 1. I find it hard to believe that the 3 remaining teams are better than yours - especially since Jabba made like 18 picks well after everyone else had finished.
The rating is based on the whole team not your starting line up - so teams with better depth essentially will be rated higher than those with shit reserves (Gazza) but when it comes to starting line ups it's a different story. Ratings are only determining divisions. As to keeping the ratings the same as what was released was not realistic. The ratings for players were a good 2 years out. Lots of players rated like 40 then players like McCaw who had like 90 speed just so his overall rating was higher. Every player has been edited, some more than others, some nothing at all really. However it's pretty realistic now. Like you say it's hard with ratings as it is opinion based but a hell of a lot better now. Ftr the spreadsheet isn't fully up to date as I did tinker with a couple of players and I definitely remember changing Romano and Earls. Also ftr I did take Skip's suggestion in consideration but by no means made any drastic changes from memory. Only Giteau I guess I was probably a little less in the know. Players are rated based on themselves so I can't be like if he's playing at 10 he's shitter so didn't drastically change O'Connor as he's a better winger/ FB than 10 so more of a compromise I guess. I'll be taking pics of the rating bars to save time. So not perfect as perfection of something that's opinion is impossible but I feel pretty good.
Dynamo Morpork (Vimes) are rated 82.6 Vimes you're missing your kicking tactics. I've set it to something but if you want then edit it in your post asap. Cheers. Well that's 13 teams done and Jabba (after countless reminders) still hasn't filled out a team submission form. Everyone all good with me randomizing his tactics? Want to get this started.
Div 1: S.A Collegians 83.8 Thunder RFC 83.8 French Fancy 83.7 Redfern Reds 83.3 Saints RFU 83.1 Div 2: Gloucester Royals 82.5 Mariner's Tigers 82.5 MrPrez 82.3 Lightning Leapers 82.2 The Ancient Mystic Society of No Homers 81.9 Redwood Phoenix 81.3 Just leaves Skippos team and Vimes being unconfirmed. They're both rated 82.6 so if Jabba's team is rated higher than that (doubting it tbh) then Skip and Vimes will have a game in the pre season which will determine who goes where. I'm thinking it won't be an issue and they'll both be in Div 1 and Jabba will be in Div 2
Ahhhhhh fuck along with Jabba not doing a team submission form he's only picked 22 players, forgot about that. He needs at least 26. Jabba to either get onto it asap or someone just pick ransoms on his behalf, cheers.
