Pick unlimited players from a single team, trade until kickoff and win ultimate rugby prize in latest fantasy fun

Dream Team Fantasy Super Rugby is the ultimate test of your rugby knowledge.

In this game, it's your job to select and manage your dream squad of players from the world's premiere rugby union competition.

Playing the game is more simple than ever before. Register at dreamteam.co.nz, come up with a name for your team and you will receive a fantasy budget to create your own squad of 22 players made up from teams such as the Crusaders, Chiefs, Waratahs, Reds, Sharks and Bulls.

Each Super Rugby player is assigned a dollar value based on their past ability to score fantasy points. Your challenge is to build a squad that combines the best of teams from New Zealand, Australia and South Africa to form the ultimate fantasy team.

You can realistically assemble a starting XV that includes Richie McCaw, Julian Savea, Israel Folau and Victor Matfield - the choice is yours.

Your fantasy team will receive fantasy points based on the real-life performances of your selected players. Fantasy points will be awarded to players for things like tackles made, tries scored and a number of brand new categories for the game, including try assists, tackle breaks and lineout steals. Players will also lose fantasy points for getting sent off and missing tackles.

Your fantasy team will automatically be competing with all other registered teams for the overall Dream Team Super Rugby title, which comes with a prize worth over $5000 - the ultimate rugby experience.

The winner and a friend will be flown to Sydney to see New Zealand play Australia in August. You can also form a variety of private competitions with friends and workmates as well as compete against some of New Zealand's best-known sports personalities.

This season's game is an improved one from last year that includes a number of new features, improved functionality and added scoring statistics.

We have made the game simple to understand for beginners with advice on gameplay throughout each page, you can manage your team via your mobile device and even follow their performances as they happen via our live match centre.

This year there is no limit on picking players from a single team, plus we have implemented a rolling lockout that allows you to make changes to your team right up until the kickoff of each fixture.

Another feature is the ability to form a private group with friends and family that will run its own playoff system to decide its winner at the end of the season. Plus, if you create a group of five or more by inviting mates to any of our three Super Rugby games you immediately go in the draw to win $1000.

The other two Super Rugby games we are offering are Super Rugby Tipping and the brand new Super Rugby Streak.

Super Rugby Tipping is the most popular tipping game in New Zealand and is as simple as picking the winner and margin of each game, each round.

Alongside the traditional favourites, we are putting $50,000 cash on the line in Super Rugby Streak - the game that rewards you for predicting tryscorers. The jackpot prize will be awarded to a player who successfully predicts correct tryscorers in every round of the competition.

Dream Team allows you to follow Super Rugby like you never have before as you become part of the action - register now and test yourself this season.
