I find most of the fun these days is to be had in the guild - playing friendlies against decent teams in your guild (and/or inhouse competition), general rugby chat and banter, Guild Challenges, WhatsApp and facebook group for developing and sharing strategies - all that good stuff.

I now use championship and tournament games as training games - I field my B team basically in order to get the extra training points for the developing players and sub one or two if I need to secure the win. The real competition comes in the guild challenges then.

Perhaps you just need a change of atmosphere? If so look us up. Our guild is The Exiles and my team is called Wales. Feel free to play a few of us and we'll undoubtedly chuck you an invite in return - no obligation to accept it.
