To be honest best bench player had 16 teams of 13 players ahead of him so he’s the 209th best player in the compSame way Nicho Hynes was and the way Jazz was the best bench player in the Dally Ms.
Man you are in good form today. Very witty retort.To be honest best bench player had 16 teams of 13 players ahead of him so he’s the 209th best player in the comp![]()
I am not taking Bromwich under any circumstances. By the time I started watching in 2018 his peak was behind him and he had become a pay cheque player. I am in it to win it this year (Mr B be warned) but also have pet players and pet hates.Actually just Barrett, thought Bromwich was there but he isn’t.
Noted for future reference.You are assuming people will want to deal with Hodges![]()
That’s harsh on bromwhich- best prop of his generation imho.I am not taking Bromwich under any circumstances.

Which is why I am letting someone else take TurboThat’s harsh on bromwhich- best prop of his generation imho.
I find in these games though, how a player ended their career has a big impact on the general consensus.
Lot of mind games and reverse phycology at play already.Which is why I am letting someone else take Turbo
Trying to push out the competition mate. I will still be your biggest customer with all deals we discussed at golf last weekend.Noted for future reference.
Any other comments on the list of additions - or I will nominate it to Tajhay. I realised today we have visited this topic before as we came up with a wildcard rule. However I think the new idea as better and avoids issues/more up front.Actually just Barrett, thought Bromwich was there but he isn’t.

Ps. You still on for the all expenses paid boys weekend in Bali just before Christmas?
Here’s the list of those players with their primary NRL positions (noting where some played multiple roles):In all honesty I can myself getting too invested in which players should and shouldn't be included in the top 50 list so I am going to stay out of it and just deal with whatever the final list is.
One thing I will say though is that there needs to be a kind of even spread of players for different positions.
Not much good having 20 halves and 30 all other positions etc (not saying that will happen but will good to have an even spread for each position)
Player | Primary Position(s) |
---|---|
Matt Orford | Halfback |
Trent Barrett | Five-eighth / Five-eighth–Lock utility |
Todd Carney | Five-eighth / Halfback |
Glenn Stewart | Lock / Second-row |
Wendell Sailor | Winger |
Lote Tuqiri | Winger / Centre |
Frank Pritchard | Second-row / Lock |
Manu Vatuvei | Winger |
Steve Matai | Centre |
Simon Mannering | Lock / Second-row / Centre (early career) |
Jared Waerea-Hargreaves (JWH) | Prop |
Jesse Bromwich | Prop |
Tohu Harris | Second-row / Lock |
Joseph (Joey) Manu | Centre / Fullback |
Ben Creagh | Second-row / Lock |
Israel Folau | Centre / Winger / Fullback |
Karmichael Hunt | Fullback / Five-eighth |
Kurt Gidley | Fullback / Halfback / Five-eighth / Hooker (utility) |
Jamal Idris | Centre / Second-row |
Akuila Uate | Winger |
Tony Williams (T-Rex) | Second-row / Lock / occasionally Centre or Prop |
Blake Ferguson | Winger / Centre |
Semi Radradra | Winger |
Shaun Johnson | Halfback / Five-eighth |
If we were adding hookers, my order would probably be Luke, Wing, Hodgson, Priddis, EnnisProbably needs one or two more hookers
Jake Friend?
Isaac Luke?
Michael Ennis?
How many extra players do you want to add?Here’s the list of those players with their primary NRL positions (noting where some played multiple roles):

The ideal goal was to add players who were better than Brent Tate and then evaluate if that is too many? I think we might to want to add some of those hookers you listed as well .How many extra players do you want to add?

Greg Bird
Jesse Bromwich
Todd Carney
Matt Cooper
Andrew Fifita
Israel Folau
Kurt Gidley
James Graham
Tohu Harris
Josh Hodgson
Karmichael Hunt
Shaun Johnson
Ali Lauiti’iti
Isaac Luke
Simon Mannering
Joey Manu
Willie Mason
Michael Morgan
Josh Morris
Mitchell Pearce
Luke Priddis

Tony Puletua
Semi Radradra
Wendell Sailor

Sam Thaiday
Clinton Toopi
Lote Tuqiri
Nigel Vagana
Manu Vatuvei
Jarred Warea-Hargreaves
