CPL XVII

Discussion in 'The CPL Rugby that never was.' started by Cribbage, Oct 19, 2009.

    I thought this could be interesting.

    Knowing how the simulator works including different sides, combinations, defensive partnerships etc, what does everyone think would actually be the strongest side imaginable?
     
  2. Ged GEC King

    The Qld team with Gallen, Bird and Watmough making up the backrow.
    Play with Cam organising the team and split the sides up.
     
  3. Cribbage RG Cribb

    I'll have a quick go at it. It'll probably change heaps if I think about it properly though.

    1. Hunt
    2. Folau
    3. Cooper
    4. Inglis
    5. Hayne
    6. Thurston
    7. Kimmorley (o)
    8. Civo
    9. Smith
    10. Price
    11. Watmough
    12. Gallen
    13. Lewis

    14. Ryles
    15. Laffranchi
    16. SBW
    17. Wing

    Alternatively you could make Smith the organiser and go with Lockyer or Marshall in Kimmorley's place.
     
  4. Baxter MJ Deane

    Lacks Gleen.
     
  5. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Berrigan in for Wing is probably a good shout.
     
  6. Ged GEC King

    Hannant >>> Ryles.
    Tate >>>Cooper
     
  7. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Nah.


    Tate will be injured. :p
     
  8. Benny BS Read


    Gun TSTL
     
  9. Benny BS Read

    Cooper is the best defensive centre in the game. His attacking skills always get under-rated because of the emphasis people put on his defence to he's still good enough in attack to be in the mix for rep footy even if he wasn't such a great defender.
     
  10. Benny BS Read

    Unless you're using Laffranchi in the front row you might be a touch short up front with that bench however I reckon. I'd play Douglas instead of SBW tbh
     
  11. Benny BS Read

    Actually Hannant before Douglas IMO
     
  12. Cribbage RG Cribb

    I went a front rower, a back rower and someone who could play both, on the bench. Along with someone who could play lock and hooker.

    I think Laffranchi's the best bloke around if you want someone to play a bit of second row and a bit of prop in this tbh. There's also Gallen who could play prop in a pinch.
     
  13. Ged GEC King

    Nate Myles, clearly.
     
  14. Cribbage RG Cribb

    This isn't Origin, so he's shit. :p
     
  15. Lukic L Popovic

    You could Cam Smith at hooker with Thurston and Benji in the halves.

    Tbh, Farah at hooker with Kimmorley/Thurston would be just as effective, or at least should be.
     
  16. Andato BJT Manera

    James Graham should be on the bench.
     
  17. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Nah.
     
  18. Andato BJT Manera

    So super league players are going to be shit?

    He did a lot more than Ryles ever did this season.
     
  19. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Nah.

    The world of rugby league did not begin in 2009.
     
  20. Andato BJT Manera

    Neither did Graham's form.
