What odds would you have got if you had put money on Weyman being the most disciplined/safest prop in the comp???
It still astounds me the way this bloke has turned it around and so quickly, pretty much just in an off season
Weyman always had the talent.....he just never had the fitness.....When he wasnt' fit, he'd try to take shortcuts.......and the result was ill discipline.
onto the whole test at hand.....I've made my selections on the basis that any origin players and kiwi and English reps are 8 and over.......9's are reserved for players of critical importance to their teams. 9.5 is Cameron Smith, being the best player in the game....(at least for a forward anyway).....I've used the game time that I've seen, and not speculated, even though there is room for it.....for eg.....Sam Burgess played for GB, and was the best forward on ground....he deserves a 9, despite what all you death riders want to say about it.....I've also tried to put the best sides on paper in terms of rep players getting priority....if they can play a position then rep players got the nod...see Brent Kite for eg

so there you have it, I have souths with the best pack (unbiased I think, and most pundits do agree with this), from Melbourne and Manly......with a slew of teams on 47.5. Surprise packed no doubt was the Cowboys, although I fear for their depth.....the two teams at the bottom were the broncos and the raiders who, whilst having some quality players, don't have it across the board........
