Will get an automatic AE then, which will be Scott

Milchcow wrote:The loophole ability was mentioned in the rules (because it was just easier rather than any delieberate desire to have one)

Can very easily backfire though. If Darren Albert or Darius Boyd grab a try they could easily outscore Matt Scott and make the loop worthless

or he could just have Luke Burt as a starter anyway given he is in the 17.

But I'd think maybe good practise just to have best 17 named in case you don't get a chance to change your team between rounds

If NRL does kick off at end of May like reports suggested, we'll have to go through multiple rounds a week to get it finished

After picking the initial squad it does seem more doable seeing as we can only make two changes.

Does it make any difference Milch if you just have a spreadsheet with the team lists in it that you update every round? It would make it easier to see who is in and out as I didn't notice Tom LL was out until someone else pointed it out.

Following on from this will any players fantasy positions change throughout the season if they change roles?

He was the widest playing 2nd rower in the history of the game. Never made a tackle in the middle or got his jersey dirty. He only wears 11 to save the embarrassment of being called a center..

Currently no plans for extra DPP

Don't have an easy way to list ins/outs right now, but I'll see if I can get something for next round
Should be able to manage something, just have to work out a decent format

Getting ins and outs will be possible, but don't think I'll be able to give notice of people moving between starting team and bench or vice-versa. That might have to be a manual effort on your part

What are the A/E rules?  I had Steve Turner in position 21 last week and looks like I didn't get his score even though I had 7 zero's from non-players.
 
Not an issue either way - punishment for not checking my players were selected.  

Cheers
