FAQs

What is fantasy rugby?

Build a team of real rugby players and score points based on their performances. In Draft XV, each player is unique to one squad per league.

Which competitions are covered?

United Rugby Championship (URC) and Premiership Rugby.

Is it free?

Yes - you can play for free. We will offer optional premium tools soon.

How does the draft work?

Leagues run a live snake draft and the order reverses each round. Once drafted, a player can’t be owned by anyone else in that league. Learn more in our How It Works guide.

What positions are in a squad?

Starters and bench across Outside Backs, Centres, Fly Half, Scrum Half, Hooker, Prop, Lock and Loose Forwards. See the Beginners Guide for a friendly overview.

How do weekly matchups and scoring work?

Each gameweek you face one opponent head‑to‑head. Players earn points from real stats (tries, tackles, meters, turnovers and more). Details are on How It Works.

How do trades and waivers work?

Trade with managers and use the waiver wire to claim free agents during weekly windows. Waiver priority breaks ties. See How It Works for the full flow.
