Are you the type of fan who despairs at your clubs latest “big” signing?
Did you disagree with the latest England squad and team selection or think you could have got them through to the World Cup Final?
Think you could do a better job than those paid thousands?
Well here’s your chance to prove it!
Let’s get this straight - EIRL is no ordinary fantasy rugby league competition. You won’t be asked to select the 13 super league players you think will score the most tries this season.
What you will be asked to do is draft your own squad and run your own first team and reserves.
You chose your own line ups, tactics and training plans.
You’re the boss and you answer to nobody. You’ll be judged purely on your results.
So what if people disagree with you? This is your team, not theirs!
Think you’ve got what it takes? Then sign up here.
HOW IT WORKS
The EIRL is an affiliate competition of the highly successful International Interactive Rugby League (IIRL) and uses the same rugby league simulator created by Graeme Kirk.
Each player in our database is rated out of 10 in five categories : attack, defence, kicking, goal kicking and match temperament. The better your player the more money he’ll cost you and you have a salary cap to meet (insert joke here about how some Super League teams can’t do that simple task)!
Once you’ve got your squad assembled you need to decide how they’ll play. Got great halfbacks? A huge forward pack? A backline to die for? Just decide where your strengths are and pick your tactics accordingly.
Once you’ve emailed this info for your game it’s inputted into the simulator (RLSim).
The sim takes on board your team selection and tactics (as well as your opponents) and produces a match report and a form guide for your team.
Every set of six is played out, with bone crunching defence and sublime skills deciding the outcome.
At the end of your game you’ll need to assess your squad for injuries and see who’s playing out of their skin, or who couldn’t tackle a kid’s happy meal (other meal options are available, subject to availability, see instore for details)!
You’ll even be allowed to train your players to improve them, but with limited training each week you’ll have to choose wisely.
Come on and give it a go!
We’re particularly interested in hearing from female wannabe coaches and fans in countries outside of GB.
