About this episode

Cargie and Harry announce the launch of Draft Rugby's new fantasy sports platform for the upcoming rugby season.

The Launch of Draft Rugby - Special Announcement Pod - S09E01 Cargie & Harry are here for a special announcement podcast! Draft Rugby announces the launch of our new fantasy sports platform for the 2025-2026 United Rugby Championship season, set for an open beta launch between September 6th and 14th. The platform distinguishes itself with a U.S. fantasy sports model where players uniquely own rugby players, you'll have a full 23-player squad, a refined scoring system valuing all player positions, and innovative trading systems including direct manager-to-manager trades, a weekly mini-draft, and a "Mario Kart" style catch-up mode. We emphasize our commitment to adaptability and community feedback, urging potential users to sign up for their mailing list at draftrugby.com to participate in the free open beta and help spread the word.
