If anyone would be interested in doing a more complex fantasy game next season I'll set up a tdread if there's enough interest. Hate the randomness and frustration (and eventual boredom) of the Prem one. Quite like the idea of those formats where players win points for stuff like passes and interceptions etc.

Ps well up for WC fantasy.

It used to be refreshed every year with a new league, started by the previous year's winner. I'll bet that there are a lot on there that not only don't look in here but don't even know what RAWK is. I'd suggest it might be worth starting that new league with a new code for next season.

And no, that's not because I just missed out on the first page. (Again)
Hey hey ....  :D

I'm the winner of the rawk league this year. Finally, after finishing in the top 5 the previous two years. I used to post regularly here but unfortunately, I've forgotten my password as well as login details to the email I used to create the account. So, the only way I can currently post is by using my old device. Is it possible for a mod to help me out with this?

The game is out and taking a look at the prices it would be really difficult to have an all-round good team.

Salah has to be the highest priced player ever at £13m?

Yeah same goes for Zaha who is now a striker. Those are the only two reclassifications as far as I can see.

But Keita at 7.5? Yes please.

Sorry Dave, never saw this before. I think it's called Roto Draft or something like that. You have to pay a couple of quid to do it, but it's ridiculously in-depth:

Done my first go at a team, which will undoubtedly change numerous times before the start of the season. Found it much more difficult at first to stay within budget. I also think a lot of people will come a cropper this year with selecting players who went far in the World Cup, not realising that they won't play much in the first few fixtures.

Ederson - Begovic

Coleman - Douglas - Kabasele - Cedric - Tomkins

Salah - Keita - Sessegnon - Jota - Kenedy

Aubamayeng - Firmino - Arnautovic

Yeah the effects of the World Cup is going to be hard to judge.

Belgian and English players surely won't be ready to start, and a lot won't have a full preseason.

My bargain tips that will look foolish in a few months: Danny Ings, Kenedy and Conor Coady.
Let us never forget Rafael Benitez and what he did for us. A fighter full of guts and passion. A gentleman full of class and dignity. A football manager full of intelligence and pure genius. A Legend.
Adios Rafa, buena suerte.

Yet you just know you’ll be playing catch up if you don’t buy him and have him as captain.

Keep chopping and changing my team. 13m for salah is a sting but you’ve got to put him in there! Seriously weakens my defence. Got aguero and aubamayang up top , keita eriksen too. Deffo going to reshuffle come the start, always the danger picking so early!

Just joined if that's okay.  Redone my team three times already and sure to do so again before the end of this week.


Have Salah in my team and for most of the season will be Captain no doubt but Big Virg gets the armband this week as I fancy him nutting one from a corner against West Ham  :)
