NZ Herald NRL games
If you’re an NRL or League fan, you’re in luck. For the first time ever, we are offering two games completely dedicated to the NRL 2013 tournament.
Virtual NRL
New Zealand’s most popular virtual picking game, NZ Herald Virtual NRL (formerly Jimungo League) is back and is set to be better than ever.
To get in on the action, you simply sign up and choose what teams are going to win and by what point differential each week. There are plenty of prizes up for grabs too – including weekly spot prizes.

Fantasy NRL
For the first time ever, we are running Fantasy NRL which gives you the opportunity to really put your League nous to the test and score yourself some prizes in the process. You choose your dream team from a pool of all real-life players in the 2013 NRL squads.
You can only choose 6 players from any one squad though (eg. six from the Warriors, six from the Roosters etc) and you can trade some of your players each week. You score points based on those players’ real life performance – metres gained, tries scored and so on.
You will receive a total budget of $6 million to choose a team of 17 players and each player has a price range (value) of between $100k and over $500k, with the highest value indicating the best players. The rating is based on their ability and the team they represent.
You can either manually pick a team using your league know-how, or use the lucky dip option, where the computer picks a team for you. Get into the game now.
