How did your team get on in the first round? Who was your top performer?
RC: I finished Round 1 in 1,702nd place and my top scorer was Abby Dow on 58 points.
Did your captain pick work out well?
RC: Yes, she was my biggest points earner.
How about your Supersub?
RC: I didn’t choose one as I had no money left! I went big on my starting picks.
Any regrets from your selections?
RC: Surprisingly, Emily Scarratt: I’ve never seen her score so poorly
Selecting just 4 players from the Red Roses is extremely tough. Who did you go with?
RC: Emily Scarratt – she’s normally golden balls; Marlie Packer – she always scores well and generally bags a try; Zoe Aldcroft - a workhorse who scores well; and Abby Dow – she makes line breaks, scores tries.
Will you be changing your approach at all for Round 2?
RC: Yes! I’ll get a Supersub.
Any lessons you learned from your fantasy selections in Round 1?
RC: Get a Supersub!
Any early thoughts to who you will be captaining in Round 2?
RC: Marlie Packer is in a good place, but Abby Dow may stay there.
What are your thoughts around Fantasy Rugby as an addition to the Championship?
RC: It creates noise, gets people talking. You see what work the players do - even those that don’t get much credit. It's great to create competition with family, friends, colleagues and fans.
