This year's Dirt Fantasy League is now open for business. I think we had the biggest league on it last year, so I've set one up again.

The site is well flaky btw - be prepared to have to do some pages more than once.

Should be a really exciting year, first race in less than a month now.

Sam Blenkinsop,Danny Hart, Loic Bruni, Jared Graves and Manon Carpenter. Hoping Bruni will be my bargain, he did really well at the tail end of last year for someone so young.

Too many teams to count. The site doesn't display most popular leagues now does it? We must be the biggest though.

We have Ed H off of Dirt on board, but not stevejonesoffofdirt unfortunately. Did somebody say something to upset him?

Managers also need to check whether their chosen riders are actually going to all the rounds.

How to do that, I'm not sure - but I thought I'd say anyway.

IIRC you get two transfers per round, which should be much better than last year.

Any one know who Ruaridh Cunningham is riding for this year? I thought he was riding with the Maxxis Rocky Mountain team but it would appear that has been dis-banded for this year.

That looks like a strong line-up for Val di Sole willej.

Two weeks until transfer deadline time folks. It's much better now we have two transfers per round, but I could still do with three to get my team just right.

Don't forget, Leaguers, it's Round 2 at Val di Sol this weekend.

Troy Brosnan is out for this round.

Sad news, really wanted to see how he did at Val di Sole this year - he was flying there last time.

Dunno whether to make my changes now or hold off and see if anyone else breaks themselves before Friday.

Yeah, I have Troy and Gee in my team, so I think a swapsies for both. I know Gee is back on the bike, but after his little tumble at Leogang it's got to be at the back of his mind on a run I'd have thought.

Gee tumble here -

I've dropped Gee and Jared Graves for Danny Hart and Sick Mick.

Was tempted by Stevie Smith though.

I've just swapped Gee and Troy for Greg and Steve Smith. Maybe I should have gone for Danny over Greg? Too late now though...that's my 2 swaps for this round.

I need to choose someone for 150k (giving Cunningham the boot) toss up between Hannah and Graves at the minute both Aussies both Handy...

I might give Duncan Riffle the boot too, but who to replace him with for 100k?

Greg might not go as fast as Danny at Val di Sole but he's more likely to end up on the podium Rickos, I've got both in my team atm.

Booted Gee in favour of Danny and kept Greg, he's just so consistent. Can podium on any course and qualifies well.

Aye, that was my thinking on Greg. Steve Smith should go well here too.

Just looked at the STW mini-League and whoever is leading (Ivor Hugh Jardon) has the same team as me. So, hopefully I'll be rising up the ranks from 9th!

Should have kept faith with Gee, what an achievement getting third on a track like that just weeks after breaking his leg.

Anyone making changes before Fort William?
