Premiership Rugby has launched its official Fantasy Premiership Rugby game, linking up with sports gaming platform Superbru. Fans of Gallagher Premiership Rugby will be able to select a squad of 23 players and a starting XV every week with points awarded for everything from tries, to lineout steals to 50:22s with bonus points awarded for your team’s selected captain and for the Gallagher Player of the Match.
The aim of the game is to score as many points as possible with the chance to compete in pools against family, friends, teammates and colleagues with prizes on offer for the players who finish at the top of the global leaderboard.
Weekly prizes will be up for grabs as well, giving players the chance to start new pools at any time during the season including the semi-finals and Gallagher Permiership Rugby Final 2024.

The basics
- Select a squad of 23 players when you start the game
- You’ll be able to make limited transfers over the course of the season to tweak your squad
- For each round, select your starting XV, captain and kicker from your squad of 23
The aim of the game
Your goal is to score points according to the scoring system. Your score feeds into your pools and to the global leaderboard. While challenging for a top spot in the global leaderboard is definitely part of the game, the most fun is had in the much smaller pools of friends, family and colleagues where the aim is simply to score the most points in your group. You might also be able to play against your club’s players…
Selecting players
You must select a squad of 23 players, comprising:
- 4 x outside backs
- 3 x centres
- 2 x fly-halves
- 2 x scrum-halves

- 2 x hookers

Up until the kick-off of the first game, you may transfer players in and out of your squad with no limitations. See Transfers and Team Limits for a breakdown of the limits that apply once the tournament is underway.
Unused transfers do not carry over to the next round and accumulate.
