My team is just pissing me off, my forwards are very reliable and are doing the job but my backs are terrible, I generally get nothing from my backs on the bench and even my starters and Thurston are doing nothing.

I suppose with this set up you're only a couple of surprise young backs away from competing, nevertheless it is frustrating.

Boyd was my first pick in my backline and he is still on 0 for the season with my 2nd choice back Idris only having one game so far. On the other hand i picked beale in my last few rounds and he's actually been great. I think with backs you gotta pick the successful teams as well as the individual. Neilson has been killing it for me because the storm (mainly cronk who has been setting it up for him, who i also happen to have and wasn't a coincidence) have been killing it. I didn't pick lawrence because i knew the tigers are a ridicously overhyped turd thats been polished by channel 9 and would go nowhere near as good as they have been predicted by so called "experts", also didnt pick cooper because he can't get otu of bed without injuring himself.

You're right dude, I'm learning also that picking backs on good teams is better than picking star players.

Yeah, definitely. another thing i've noticed is sometimes the "good" players take a while to warm into a season.

i'm holding onto Lawrence pure and simply because i think the Tigers will have a hot streak at some stage.

At least the Panthers give some info, Souths have been pathetic. Nothing on Merritt's injury since pre season.

Good thing my other players have performed as been hammed by injuries/last minute dropping and seems Graham won't even get a DF.
