    Surprised Wardle hasn't been named and looks like big minutes for DSaifiti with that interchange

    He definitely wasn't established. Maybe making a name for himself with the limited opportunities he had but if he averaged more then 15 mins in games that Luke played I'd be absolutely shocked.

    Does Mataora still play for the Knights? Also Tupou isn't there.

    Anyone got the minerals to open the season with Phythian as one of your starting 13?

    Sam Mataora and Anthony Tupou both need to be added

    Mataora was brilliant last year for the Knights in a team that got smashed every week,will be interesting to see if they start with Starling or Mataora

    I don't think Tupou will feature. Purely depth signing imo (and probably offer some of the young forwards some leadership around training).

    Not sure if it has been mentioned but McGuire has been given DPP status with 2RF now. (I thought they only updated it after Team Lists?)

    I Well if you want to have Uate and Jennings as backups then go for it.

    I am tossing up having Idris as my most expensive CTR.
    Sione would be in backrow ready to be sent down to CTR if I need emergency repairs.

    More than just McGuire, about 10 players all up.

    They did the same thing last year with Ben Barba who started out as HLF only and got WFB during pre-season. Possibly others too.

    I've always started with cheapest centres I can find and it seems to work in most cases. Such an inconsistent position

    Idris is currently my most expensive CTR option also, has allowed me to have decent halves Norman, Taylor, Lamb and Elgey and a decent pack with guns and fairly decent cows. I'm very comfortable having Kelly or Scott pairing Idris. Phythian/Uate would be a pain though
