About this app
24-0 Rugby Draft Pro League opens at the draft board. You build a squad from a pool of more than 1,000 rugby players — forwards, backs, specialists and goal kickers drawn from different eras — and the pool rotates, so the same plan will not work twice. Position fit, value and depth matter as much as raw rating, because a squad that cannot absorb an injury will not survive a season.
GM mode runs a 24-match campaign under a $200M in-game salary cap. Trades, contracts, free agents, payroll, rotation, morale and job security are all yours to manage, and matchup preparation before a big fixture is a real lever rather than a menu. The result is a club you are accountable for over a whole year, not a single game.
The match model follows rugby union scoring — tries, conversions, penalty goals, drop goals and draws — with authentic position roles behind it. Around the main campaign sit shorter formats: fantasy squads that mix legends and value picks, limited drafts, salary challenges, daily modes and a simulator for projecting how a lineup would actually hold up.
