i can see a few potential bargains, the kickers situation is the problem, would be better to have one nominated kicker, instead of everyone trying to cram as many in as they can, making alot of peoples teams very similar.

For me there is one obvious bargain but when people like Dureau and Gale's prices have almost doubled, people are gonna struggle

The option was taken to fabricate the kickers price slightly after taking into consideration that they are normally the top points scoters AND so the top 100 teams wouldn't be identical this year

Personally I think people are going to favour kickers in the backs (aside from Richards) this season, having Tickle or Sinfield won't score you enough tries for the money in my opinion. I've been at it for an hour and a half and am only settled on about 6 players so far

How many kickers has everyone got?

ive only gone for 2 kickers... and neither of them are pat richards.

I'm struggling to get a team full of players that are likely to gain points in all positions without over spending.

I'm looking at 5 at the moment. On paper it's an awful team, but should get me the points

So far mines looking like

Trent Robinson

Wade McKinnon
Pat Richards
Jamie Foster
Chris Bridge
Jermaine McGilvary
Richard Horne
Tim Smith
Adam Sidlow
Julien Rinaldi
Mark Bryant
Shane Rodney
Jordan Cox
James Donaldson

Given that points for goalkicking have doubled, I think all the main kickers need to be fairly highly priced.

I've got 3 in my team at the moment which possibly could change nearer the time, but I've got a good balance of players in the forwards/backs from the top teams.

As usual, my props/hooker are pretty bad/average but that happens every season! As long as they get game time and I pick up a couple of points here and there for them then I'm happy

this isnt a competition...its an ordeal

2 hours later and i still cant get more than 5 half decent players

That means we are doing our job right, cheers

How the hell did you get five in? I've got three kickers and most of the rest of the team are terrible. Think I'll change it all round again by friday.

Took me an hour and a half as well. Most of it was going back and forth seeing how much I spent. Got 5 kickers.

We gave up last night after 3 hours as the site doasn't seem to cope with whats required to pick a team,just picking a player,once picked took up to 5 mins for the page to come back to normal,and we used to like the statistics for each player,we felt like we were just picking in the dark.
I also think to get a team that will actually play each week ,you would need at least another £1000000 otherwise you will have a few players that play every week and most of the others squad players that will only play occasionally.
Thanks for all the hard work setting it up ,but the time needed to keep scrolling down the players and super slow speed is killing the game.
We have been in the comp since the beginning ,but unfortunately ,haven't got the time to pick a team in the new system

Im starting from scratch again today with my team, its tough going!

Cant find Jamie Foster???

Your not looking hard enough then

i have 3 kickers inc pat and 3 part time kickers that cover injuries ha ha

Love how hardly anybody is posting their teams. Pretty happy with mine.

The backs are good and will get me points, but as for the forwards?

Denis Betts

Sam Tomkins
Damien Blanch
Chris Bridge
Jamie Foster
Josh Charnley
Gary Wheeler
Matty Smith
Craig Huby
Shaun Lunt
Jonathan Walker
Ben Bolger
Carl Ablett
Simon Finnigan

Probably as it takes alot of effort, nobody wants to do other peoples work
