Here's a dumb question?

Do you have to pick a team by filling the correct positions? or can you just leave out props and 2nd rows for example?

I usually go all backrows + Healy when he's fit

In hindsight loading my team with Welsh backs wasn't wise.

If Zebo could score 5 tries for me this afternoon I'd be ever so grateful.

Im glad I couldnt decide between North and Cuthbert and picked Halfpenny, although not glad I made him designated kicker of Keatley

and after many years of faithful service to my teams in this competition Zanni goes off injured for second year in a row

no one had Madigan or TOD so Keatley and Murray only points scorers from our game

Personally I would have given MOM to Murphy, Bowe or Kearney.

Toner, POM or McGrath for me, Italians always give bafflling MoMs especially if they cant give it to one of their own

yeah he let me down last year too, he was normally good for 15-25 points every tournament and thats all you can ask of an Italian/Scottish forward

I'm taking the Zanni hit as well. Going to have to invest in an extra Scot this week I think.

I also hope for his sake after the head knocks that I lose North for the next round.

with Italy away to the weaker sides Parisse not going to be a points machine
very hard to guess what Scotland forwards will play 80, or English forwards for that matter

only danger is England empty bench after 50 minutes

Liam Williams could be a bolter if he plays fullback, nowhere near as effective on wing
