This is the chance to live your ultimate rugby fantasy - an opportunity to be a coach of an international rugby side.How else could you take charge of a team featuring the likes of Sean O'Brien, Jonathan Sexton and Keith Earls? Not only can you shape the team of your dreams, but you can also win some fantastic prizes in the process.The game is split into five Game Rounds as follows:Game Round 1: Saturday, 4 February and Sunday, 5 February
Game Round 2: Saturday, 11 February and Sunday, 12 February
Game Round 3: Saturday, 25 February and Sunday, 26 February
Game Round 4: Saturday, 10 March and Sunday, 11 March
Game Round 5: Saturday, 17 March
Taking part couldn't be easier. Simply select a 15-man team from the player list, making sure you have a maximum of three players from each nation and the right number of players in each position (eight forwards, one scrumhalf, one outhalf and five outside backs).Finally, pick one of your team to take your kicks at goal and you'll then be all set for the tournament kick-off at 14:30 on Saturday, 4 February.
If you are unsure on team selection, start out by clicking the http://imageseasynet.fleague.com/fas...ydip_small.gif button and this will automatically select a team for you.Remember, the game is FREE to enter, so what do you have to lose?Once the tournament is underway, your team scores points depending on how your players perform in the Six Nations tournament.
So all that's left for you to do is sit back, enjoy the action and count up the points as your players do the business on the pitch - for example, if you've selected Tommy Bowe, just imagine the joy as he crosses for a try and your team gains another five points!
If your players are not performing so well, you can make up up to five transfers between Game Rounds - that's 20 team changes in all...all completely free of charge. Kicker changes are unlimited.

Following the postponement of the France v Ireland match, it has been decided that points will be scored in the re-arranged match as per Fantasy Rugby team selections for the initial scheduled game as of 20:00 GMT on Saturday, 11 February.
This means that the restriction of only being able to field a maximum of 15 players (including one kicker) for each Game Round still applies, although we realise that there could well be changes in the starting line-ups from the original fixture to the re-arranged match. That’s obviously unfortunate, but even when a player is named in the starting line-up, there is never a guarantee of them actually starting the game (as per Sam Warburton against Scotland).
Team changes (and kicker changes) will be disabled until the announcement of the re-arranged fixture has been made, and if re-arranged for this coming weekend, changes will be disabled throughout the whole of this period.
However, if, as is likely, the match is re-arranged for the weekend of 3/4 March, entrants will then be able to make team changes in preparation for the Game Round 3 fixtures (25/26 February) as normal. Team changes will then be disabled between Game Round 3 and the re-arranged France v Ireland fixture to avoid further confusion, but as previously explained, points will be assigned to Fantasy Rugby teams for the France v Ireland match based on their team as of 20:00 GMT on Saturday, 11 February rather than their selections as of the re-arranged fixture date.
