[Drew-Sta]

If you want to change the most recent one, let me know before thorson posts.

I think he'll be signing a player from the US league.

Yes! David Hala please.

 

[Misanthrope]

There is not enough fear and awe surrounding my side.

Yes! David Hala please.

Done

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

[Drew-Sta]

Have you seen my forward pack? Good luck bashing them.

Also, if it's a 17 man game....my bench > your bench. Try doing it for the full 80.

Yeah, I have. It will be a battle of the bulge between us. I've got a few palangi's to get to even it out. But yes - my forward pack might have slippery fingers, but they'll make sure you feel it when they hit you. I've gone with a rotating wrecking ball theme

 

[Drew-Sta]

[/B]

Someone in that whole pack needs to have good hands :lol::lol::lol:

 

[whall15]

I dunno Drew, my forward pack is a wrecking ball that can also catch and pass a ball.

Yeah but you're assuming Williams can be bothered wrecking anything other than the blades of grass he steps on. :sarcasm:

 

[Drew-Sta]

Aww, c'mon, they can catch... usually. :sarcasm:

Just imagine the offloads, ad hoc play making and second phase plays. It will be like the Harlem Globe Trotters arrived in rugby league.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Is anyone holding it up after Thorson? Trying to get a read on whether or not I'm likely to get my next pick.

 

[whall15]

Just looked at the stats on wiki, our packs are pretty much the same average size.

Oxymorons 189cm 108kg
Mua Saints 188cm 109kg

 

[RHCP]

Mis can you list Kyle Stanley as a centre? He's started 20 of 37 games there.

Assuming the above is alright...

1. Glen Fisiahi
2. Kyle Stanley
3. BJ Leilua
4. Jamie Lyon
5. Edrick Lee
6. Terry Campese
7. Daniel Mortimer
8. Adrian Morley
9. Thomas Leuleuai
10. Kade Snowden
11. Zeb Taia
12. Gareth Ellis
13. Paul Gallen (c)

14. Justin Horo
15. David Fa'alogo
16. Jason Ryles

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Horo is gone, I should really take him off my list. He's down around 4-5 I think so no biggie as I've gotten players higher on the list each time.

 

[whall15]

Just checking through the positions you have allocated my players.

Tony Williams is a second rower not a prop. - http://www.rugbyleagueproject.org/players/tony-williams/positions.html

Leroy Cudjoe is a centre not a winger - http://www.rugbyleagueproject.org/players/leroy-cudjoe/positions.html

Ashley Graham is a winger, not a centre - http://www.rugbyleagueproject.org/players/ashley-graham/positions.html

Is that just the starting pack or bench too? I'll have a look at mine when I get home. Hopefully I've got my next pick by then as well because that could change the make up of my team a bit.

 

[whall15]

I included both the starting pack - hooker + bench - bench hooker.

Updated. Although in all of the cases you mention, they were listed as a position that could play the position you requested anyway :lol:

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

My team looks all good as far as positions go. The only ones I'd argue with is Jack Reed as a second rower (WTF?) and Wade Graham is more of a lock these days rather than five eight.

Aside from Reed the rest are potato potato (that doesn't work well in typing) as they can play the positions I chose them for anyway.

I thought that players might get a little reduction for playing out of position, even in a position they could play in.
