Might have to think about that one. Plenty of players I would've preferred to others of course, but when you're pick 18 you don't expect the best of the best (at least not in the spine positions).

Wanted Merrin. Stolen from me straight away. Also wanted Hodges to pair Inglis.

You were up against several Saints fans. You had to know he was not going to last. Should have taken him instead of a second fullback with your second pick. I couldn't believe my luck that he was still available when my 3rd pick came around. Especially since there was a Saints fan with a double pick in between my picks 2 and 3.

Aye, focused too much on my spine, then f**ked it signing finch anyway :lol:

Doesn't matter, I got a decent starting pack. Wanted try scorers more.

Mis what are the rules with regards to trading? Could you theoretically make a 2-for-1 and draft a free agent?

Or just straight swaps only?

I'm gonna need to trade for a half decent winger. Fish is the only guy in my backline with any pace.

Interesting question.

Also, to keep the discussion going. What position do people feel their the weakest in and how many are looking to do a trade of some sort?

Most of the guys I was really keen on were the ones from my old ASRL side... Roby, Scott, Tamou, Ratchford etc. Apart from that was happy to build the side as it happened.

I need to look at my stocks, but I got strong backs, not too fantastic forwards. Will wait for the stats though, I may be surprised.

Fairly sure Mis said earlier we could swap picks for players etc... Trading is such a huge, enjoyable part of the game I can't see how it won't be allowed.

I reckon my props are weakest. Strongest in the 2nd row so if anyone is chasing a gun 2nd rower you can have any except Te'o if you have a quality prop to front up.

I wouldn't hold your breath mate :p

I might be interested in a swap for a decent back, I've got a fair few second rowers.
