Absolutely buzzing to again support grassroots Rugby and be a sponsor for Pulborough RFC's Minis Tour to Kent next week. Love coaching at PRFC, the kids continue to amaze me with their Rugby ability and how they embrace all things TREDS. Support your local Rugby club!
ICYMI the FRG league for @Womens6Nations is live. First name on my team? 10 breakdown steals in 4 matches (technically 3.5 matches!) in last year's W6N, and already 18 in the @ThePWR this season. Evie Gallagher an absolute fantasy cheat code. Join here: fantasy.sixnationsrugby.com/w6n/#welcome...
So another year is done in the @SixNationsRugby fantasy game! The FRG team ended up 1,642nd on 2550 points. Solid. A huge congratulations however goes to the Fantasy Rugby Geek open league winner Big Dyl XV with a huge 2732 points!

Then I looked at his scoring in the 2024 ANS fantasy game, which had the same scoring (minus retained kicks) and in which he played 3 games at 10, not 15 (where he was categorised as a Back Three player). He was the second highest scoring Back Three player in the whole game.
A few words on Ramos's fantasy scoring potential, and if the move from 15 to 10 will blunt his fantasy returns. A few people are asking whether to drop him for Attissogbe or Drean. 🧵👇
Reflecting on a massive weekend of fantasy action, and I just want to take a moment to respect the stats of Fabien Brau-Boirie. Unbelievable debut, a try, 100m carried and 7 defenders beaten, but look at those tackles! 20 tackles! 20 tackles Jeremy? 20? that's insane!

Don't forget to plan for your supersub. You get triple points for selecting a player starting on the bench in real life. A successful SuperSub pick can propel you to the very top, but how do you pick a good SuperSub? I use this criteria as the basis for my selection...
Another alternative potentially stepping into the vacant France number 8 shirt is Anthony Jelonch. In the game at 10, the experienced back rower will deliver big value at that price. He has 3 tries fror France and may well add to that if he gets the nod at 8 this season.
In the game as a second row, but frequently appearing at Number 8 for both club and country, Mickael Guillard is a hard carrier with an eye for the tryline, and with Gregory Alldritt now out he could be one of several options France have to fill the Number 8 shirt.
Not much more you can say about Dupont. Tries, metres, retained kicks, offloads, defenders beaten, you can expect it all and more with Dupont. He even topped the overall rankings for total assists last season with 7 assists in just 3 and a bit matches.
A value pick going under the radar is Freddie Steward. Steward's metres are the stuff of legend with 536m carried so far in 9 PREM games (+24 def beaten and 8 line breaks). He's also got 3 tries and 4 assists in the PREM this season and 10 international tries to his name
Looking at deeper options, it's hard to ignore Henry Pollock, he continues to tear it up for club and country. Tries, explosive carries and breakdown steals. If he's named in the bench for Round 1, he's an absolute no-brainer for supersub.
Top fantasy option this year again is Ben Earl. In 2024 he was one of the highest scorers in the game, and in 2025 he still delivered, averaging 32.6 ppg, 425 metres carried (highest of all forwards) and he was also 2nd equal for breakdown steals with 5.
Looking deeper in the pricing, don't rule out Jacob Stockdale (9⭐). Likely stepping in at the 15 shirt with Keenan out. He's been one of the top carriers in URC this season with 437m carried, 31 dfenders beaten, 10 clean breaks and 9 offloads in 7 matches.
When it comes to value, Tommy O'Brien is a strong shout. Likely starting in the Back 3 with Hansen ruled out, O'Brien had a great QNS for Ireland, and although used sparingly in the URC this season, in 4 games he has 3 tries, 1 assist, 276m carried, 16 def beaten and 3 offloads.
Ireland's squad is littered with elite fantasy options - none more so than Dan Sheehan. At times like a 3rd wing, regularly found in space out wide. His international tryscoring record is elite with 5 tries in his last 2 M6N. There is no other hooker in the game who gets close.
Another potential OOP option is Gregor Brown. In the game as a lock, but regularly playing in the back row, Brown is a hard runner and industrious tackler. This season in the URC he has tries, assists, lineout steals as well as an impressive 75 tackles and 4 breakdown steals.
Elsewhere there's plenty of value, for example Jamie Dobie, an injury concern for Round 1, but if he's involved at some stage he's a steal. In the game as a 9, but regularly on the wing, he's been a fantasy cheat code on superbru for URC where he's the top tryscorer with 7 tries
As far as fantasy options go, it's hard to ignore Blair Kinghorn. He was the top fantasy scorer in 2025, and when he slots in at 15, he is simply a metre eating machine. For context last year he carried for 855m, 380 metres more than the second highest carrier (Duhan VDM).
There is a strong possibility that England will line up with all 4 of Arundell, IFW, Steward and Tommy Freeman (at 13) next week. A big fantasy selection headache! Using @PremRugby stats with @sixnationsrugby fantasy scoring, this is how they've shaped up this season...
