2024 Fantasy Rugby Teams of the Season
This past weekend's URC and Super Rugby Finals signalled the end of the club rugby season on Superbru and what a campaign it has been for fantasy players with games for those tournaments and Premiership Rugby available on the Superbru Rugby app that was new for 2023/24.
It's always interesting to look at which players stood out in terms of fantasy points at the end of a season, particularly when you can compare across the different leagues covered.
Here are the Fantasy Teams of the Season for the United Rugby Championship, Premiership and Super Rugby Pacific in terms of the most points accumulated by players in the set positions within our games. One to bookmark ahead of next season, perhaps...
🥇 Top scoring player: Elrigh Louw (Bulls, 296 points)
🥇 Top scoring player: Fin Smith (Northampton Saints, 274.5 points)
🥇 Top scoring player: Damian McKenzie (Chiefs, 330 points)
The 'best' fantasy rugby players are of course always subjective depending on your approach and particularly in terms of value for money now that we've introduced a salary cap to our games during this 2023/24 season.
Who were your fantasy MVPs across each tournament?

URC-103m, Premiership-106m, Super Rugby-116m. This shows me that it would be impossible to have a "super star" squad of 23 and stay under the salary cap. I am assuming that the salary cap was introduced to make the competitions more interesting and more challenging, but did it occur to you that maybe you should have done a referendum to see if the people wanted the inclusion of the salary cap. The only competition that has a salary cap is the Premiership, and look where that has gotten them and not to mention several teams getting caught for breaching the salary cap. I think that in going forward a referendum should be done, if the majority of responders say yes to the salary cap, then it stays. If on the other hand the if majority would like to get rid of it, then get rid of it, the people have spoken. Don't you just love Democracy at work.
