Week 2 lineups have been released, you know what that means! It's time for some Free Bad Advice from your favorite Yanks...we hope. It's Start or Sit from #TFRY for Round 2 of Prem Rugby.
Round two of Prem rugby brings the Yanks thoughts for fantasy rugby lineups. Starts of the Week for the boys both come from the same club. Ben has gone for the Leicester stand off, Orlando Bailey while Jarrod has gone for the ever reliable winger Ollie Hassell-Collins. Sits of the week are from the same game as well, Jarrod has advised to pine Newcastle's middle man, George McGuigan and Ben has advised against Exeter's number 10, Harvey Skinner.

Premiership Rugby finals are here, last week to make a move in Superbru. For that here’s some advice from @jarrodoftfry.bsky.social and @grumpyoldprop.bsky.social. Good luck and enjoy the show!
Fantasy rugby advice for your Superbru Premiership Rugby game. Jarrod and Ben favor Bath backs for Start of the Week with Jarrod naming Max Ojomoh and Ben liking Will Muir’s chances running at Radwan. The Sits of the Week flipped, with Jarrod naming Ben’s selection from last week Ben Spencer and Ben going with Solomone Kata whom Jarrod named last week. Good luck!
