Watched you compiling that squad and thinking you're pulling it together nicely. What happens if Brimson misses our like being speculated, who is your backup?

I think it'd suit my squad to have it, but would understand if other clubs don't want to add this rule after drafting

I was thinking if we set a criteria like under 20 and under 3 first grade games at the end of the year. That would give a lot of scope to pick players up post draft.

Well that early drafting of Drinkwater has gone well for me.

Image seems to be the only major injury out of the trials. Mau may have a MCL injury too.
Lawrence broke his jaw in training but that's about it I think.

Ouch. Our LOL draft is still going. There was a big pause yesterday and no drafting. I'm guessing they were waiting for the trials to make sure no injuries happened

How does the bench work again? If I recall only one of the spots can earn a workhorse. Is that correct.

Incorrect Image

The 1st 2 bench spots can earn WH tries. You can put forwards in the last 2 bench spots but they won't earn WH tries.

I believe that's incorrect now too. Apparently all four bench spots earn workhorse tries, but they score at half points.

I just left the default. Half points for most categories.

Here are the formulae in the settings at the moment:

Bench:
2*$tries + 2*$workHorse + 1*$tryAssists + $lineBreaks + $lineBreakAssists - 1*$sinBins - 2*$sentOffs + $fieldGoals + $fortyTwenty

Vs

Backrower:
4*$tries + 4*$workHorse + 2*$tryAssists + $lineBreaks + $lineBreakAssists - 2*$sinBins - 4*$sentOffs + $fieldGoals + $fortyTwenty

Already a few free agents picked up after round 1 teams are announced.

Have the GM's gone off early? Time will tell.

10|113|Ese'ese, Herman| Sir McSquid's Squad

This appears to be my biggest draft flop given he has been named in jersey 19, though I'm sure everyone has their flops!

I thought Kurt Mann would get a starting spot. Copley is another flop for me. I also picked up the young Hopoate from Manly to cover Turbo Tom but they've picked some other nuffy.

In my match up this week, I don't have a fullback but then Ed has to deal with Isaac Luke not being selected.

Never enough fullbacks to go around. Or halves to be honest.

I picked Lomax in 3 comps but he is behind the other wingers it seemed. Looked shaky in the trials

I lost Papalii the warriors bloke stood down and George Jennings. But I have that winger for the Dragons who took Lomax spot so he can slot in for Jennings.
