I like it mate and welcome to the forum

a few questions, who are your 4 reserves?

And why Roberts? Do you think he's going to improve at the Broncos over the Titans?

Cheers, First effort for review , I keep tweaking it and starting over again - arghhhh.
Reserves- Lichaa, Lawrence, Aloiai and Mitchell? Does that work?
Roberts -  He’s averaged 38.61 playing centre for the Titans and now he’s with a good team! But joining a good team could be a doubled edged sword because he isn’t going to be the Broncos only offensive threat like he was on the Titans so unsure in truth - any suggestions.

Roberts -> CLaw
Fergy into the CTRs pushing Auva'a to reserves
Graham -> Woods

perhaps Barba into wfb if he's named at TLT

Sound advice there Honeysett

Woods or Graham personal preference, Woods slightly better but does miss more games with origin etc

Thanks fellas. Been tweaking things and hows this......

Much improved on the last team mate. Only concern for me would be depth in 2NF. If you get any injuries there you will take a hit on points, or be required to trade a keeper.

Personally I would get the cash by downgrading Mannering. He may prove me wrong but I don't think he can match his scores from last year. I have no solid evidence why that would be the case.

Nice one... Yeah I agree, but driving me mad trying to work out options. Thought about downgrading Lichaa to Granville and Graham to Woods and then Mannering to another and using cash to rework 2RF options ? Any suggestions welcome?

I have thought a lot about Granville, he has a lot of upside but I like the consistency that comes with Lichaa.

If you downgrade someone like Mannering to say JDB Gives you $106K. That would allow you to get Kenny Edwards ($215K) who it appears could be a mid range cash cow this year.

You could also get some more cash by downgrading one of Mansour, Gordon, Ferguson to Feeney and getting a cashie (depends who is named Addo-Carr, Scott etc) as 5th reserve. This would give you and extra hundred or so to upgrade Kenny Edwards to LAM or someone similar.

There's a familiar name    .  You were on Sportal pretty much longer than all of us!  Mate, there are 2 threads named rate my team and this is not the main one.  Did you want to repost in the other one and see how you go?

All good mate, I renamed it to avoid the confusion but no dramas.

Thanks - do I delete it or something?

No mate, all good. I've edited the title so people can differentiate the threads. Leave it up and you may get some more feedback on here.

Been tweaking things and hows this......

HOK – Smith (c) (Lichaa(s))
FRF – JBrom, JGraham (B Lawrence, V Leuluai)
SRF – Surgess, Cooper, Cartwright ( LAM (s), MCK, Josh Aloiai)
HLF – DCE, Hastings (Taylor, Jkorima one to be (s))
CTR – CLawrence,, Auva'a ( Henry, Matai)
WFB – Mansour, Ferguson, Gutherson (Feeney (s) Mitchell )

Struggling with CTR - Matai was crap last year will he be better this one? Thought maybe Hurrell or Lafai for CLaw , but like CLaw's DPP and Copley for Matai leaves me $46k for say LAM to Papalii? Or should Ii use it elsewhere?

I'd get rid of Matai to a 130k DPP cheapie so you can move Gutherson there for injury cover, this will add an extra 36k to your bank.

The rest looks pretty good, 2 gun front rowers, a solid 2nd row although my preference would be to upgrade Cooper to Merrin, then if you have enough cash, you could upgrade CLaw to Aubbs, he should outscore CLaw and average closer to 50 while he's in the 2nd row, hopefully he wont have any stints in the centre's.

Been tweaking things some more and hows this......
