Given there's 20 teams in this, picking a side of the top Super league players is going to give you one of the stronger teams anyway imo.

Ben Creagh/Jason Bukuya 12. Ashley Harrison 13. Adam Blair 14. Sam Moa 15. Tyrone Peachey 16. 17. 18. Luke Kelly Need a little more depth in the middle third and in the outside backs but I'm reasonably happy with that after having a pretty poor first round.
More people are going to need two hookers in their 17 than they're probably willing to admit at the moment, but I guess they'll figure that out after the first couple of games anyway.

Hmmmm what I'm working with ATM. Missed a few I really wanted early on.
You could look at trading a back rower to someone else for a hooker; you've got back rowers coming out of your arse I think.
I probably couldn't disagree more, dummy half is imo the most crucial position to have a quality player in. It's rare to see a top side in the modern day game who doesn't have a quality dummy half and for good reason.
Granted. But at the same token my hooker just needs to be good in providing decent service & make his tackles. He doesn't need to be Cameron Smith or Danny Buderus.
I'll look into that depending on whether or not I want to make changes if my squad is finalised after the PM I just sent you.
