HOK: Have been playing with some King teams lately, gives so much bulk to the rest of the pack. Still do not think I am the man to take the plunge though.
FRF: I'm not sold on Vaughan, feel free to convince me. I just can't see him doing anything he wasn't already doing at the Raiders.
2RF: I agree that SMat is a good pick, but if you think this, then surely he is far more useful to you at CTR? I guess you could always trade him there later on. I just like the safety of thinking he will gun it in a tricky position and give me one less thing to worry about. Plenty of other mid-range talent in the second row this year.
HLF: solid enough, I have had Hodkinson in and out of my team. But lately the Knights seem in such shambles, I don't want to bring any backs in this year so I have gone cold. Could still be a genius move though.
CTR: I like all these undervalued picks individually, but you are already taking a gamble with Idris so why run with Kahu too? They could both stink it up big time in the centres leaving you with little base value to fix the hole. I would move SMat to CTR instead of Kahu and someone like Aloiai (assuming he gets a starting role) into the second row instead.
WFB: All good hear, I really like the French pick. RTS and Hayne just about a must, but most ppl seem to go with Teddy, Holmes or Slater as their third (I chose Holmes myself). French might be a good little POD who plays all bye rounds.
Sorry man, didn't mean to sound overly critical. reading back I sound like a jerk haha. I actually really like your team, is similar to my own (build #17865) in many ways. Good job

As much as a King team looks the goods, I just don't see him starting for the Eels and even being relevant at the seasons start anyway. So I have edged away from creating teams with King as second hooker
Love that back 5 and halves combo
I would personally look to downgrade Gurgess/Wallace and upgrade Bolton into someone more substantial, love KBrom and Aloiai picks and LucyL could be decent cow

Your write up made me want to do one.
HOK: Aside from Seggy coming in I think this is the best HOK combination to start with as it doesnt compromise the rest of your team.
FRF: I am not sold on McGuire getting a bump in minutes or a bump in workrate like everyone believes he is going to. (Not that he isnt gun level.) I just dont think he makes it to that god like tier. Also not sold on the amount of minutes Wallace would get but I am leaning towards him.
2RF: What are peoples thoughts on Bolton? I mean are his minutes or workrate going to change all that much. Like Tamou is gone and Bolton may start but are his minutes changing all that much from last year? Like wont they just trickle down so he gets Tamou minutes and benchies get his. (Not sure how big the difference between his and Tamous minutes were.)
HLF: I am not big on investing much in the halfs to start the season. Particular Johnson who you could get at a cheaper rate elsewhere. Also Norman I am not sold on but everyone else is so he should be fine.
CTR: One thing you mentioned is SMat is having him in the CTRs in your review. Personally there is more value in the CTRs than the 2RF at this stage. I would start him at 2RF and move him to the CTRs if he is a keeper. Does Moga even get a run at the Broncos with how packed the pecking order is. He couldnt get a run in the Cowboys even after some injuries iirc.
WFB: No problems here a few doubts about Holmes but he should be decent. Especially with no Barba for half the season.

Tamou 46 Bolton 35. Moga I thought was going really well until he did his ACL. Would be stacks better than Benji imo
