    So that's what, once every 10 games? Hooker is probably the big one for mine, Fien and Withers are hardly top-class and they're in one of the key positions.
     
  2. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Bingo. If need be we can drop Milne/Meli.
     
  3. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Fien is quality.
     
  4. Julian BJ Taylor

    Also have the best defensive five-eighth and fullback in league today.
     
  5. Stormer BH Borisc

    No way our attack's only 6. Fui Fui, Slater, Gasnier, Cronk, Crocker.
     
  6. Magic AJ Parker

    I agree with Kai being favorites... strong starting 13.
     
  7. Ged GEC King

    I don't really see how we could be rated so lowly in attack. Our forward pack was picked based mainly on having the best metre eaters. Price is one of the best in the nrl. Lynch averages 135m and has the most offloads in the esl. rapira averages 100m+, as does Keith Mason. LOD and Pritchard are both great for picking up the metres and fringe running too. On top of all of the bench mark that these blokes can set, Ennis and Hunt have about 40 try assists between them, not even taking into account our halves, where Orr is the leading try assister in the esl. Out wide we probably aren't as dynamic as others but I don't think that we need to be.
     
  8. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Best defensive backrow, best attacking backrow too.

    Gallen and Harrison are gonna be so ****ing good.
     
  9. Tartmaster AJ James

    :ninja:
    Yeah, about that.....
     
  10. Bender BG Herd

    Nah.
    (to trade)
     
  11. Speirz DG Speirs

    Yeah, your second row definitely looks a bit weaker than some of the others. Defensively in the backline you could struggle as well. That said you'll make plenty of metres and should have decent enough strikepower to take advantage of that. A lot of the creativity rests on Burrow and Payne though, Anasta, Minichiello and Fulton aren't the strongest in that regard.
     
  12. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Huh?
     
  13. Bender BG Herd

    You quoted hunter too like you were offering Fein.
     
  14. Ged GEC King

    Their backrow is a potential weakness imo. Zeb;s under-rated and will be good, and Hilder's solid, but Harrison seems a bit hot and cold and their only other backrower is Southern, who shouldn't even be in first grade afaic.
     
  15. Fungus K Fung

    Well, I would go with Inglis at fullback and Luck at lock if Freddy didn't want Minichiello definitely at fullback.

    I'm in the middle of talks for Burgess and/or Eastwood. Reckon that would help the second row?
     
  16. Magic AJ Parker

    No need to be creative when you can just run over the team.
     
  17. Speirz DG Speirs

    Until you snap your spine.
     
  18. Flack SA Flack

    The problem with some of you were the amount of poms you had that I don't rate (and I don't rate a lot of Poms, just a handful).

    Rob might rate them a bit higher than me though, obv. I don't care about ESL stats either because I still think it's a fairly inferior comp and you can't even get close to comparing it and NRL stats. Anyway it's not like my list is the law or something, just a quick opinion I formed from scanning your teams :p
     
  19. Ged GEC King

    I honestly reckon that everyone rates their team because they'd all probably make the top 8 in the nrl due to getting all the poms and sl players back.
     
  20. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Minichiello will probably get injured anyway.
