Arnheiner has missed his turn Is Jamie Mcintosh a loose head? If so I pick him to complete my team. edit he is. 1 Mackintosh 2 Hewitt 3 Loe 4 Thorne 5 Bird 6 LuaTua 7 McCaw 8 rodney so'oialo 9 Kelleher 10 Barrett 11 Jose Gear 12 Mauger 13 Payne 14 Ranger 15 Anscombe I am 80% satisfied with my team. I have some hard men up front with Loe Bird and Thorn. Not happy with my number 8 but couldn't think of anyone else, Front row will be the weakest out of the draft participants but I have never rated front rows and I think it is the least influential position. It has an influence, just less than any other position except maybe wing. My backs are not of ATG standard, and to be fair a regular AB side would have better backs than that. But they would travel ok against any team not name South Africa and I was pleased as punch to get Kelleher as he always impressed me.
Not happy with So'oialo? Sure, he was pretty poor by the time he retired but he was bloody great at his best.
