2022 NRLCEO Position Updates
Something for you all to know straight off the bat if you haven’t read it already. This year we have reduced the number of weeks required for a position upgrade.
If a player starts TWO games in a row in a position they are not named as eligible for on NRLCEO then we will update them. If they play THREE games in a different position at any stage this year they will get an update.
Please note that players starting off the bench do not qualify for position updates as it’s sometimes hard to determine their exact position.
So now, let’s list all of the players who have had positional changes throughout the year so far:

A Founder of NRLCEO. Jamie spends far more time on running the site than his own team and is therefore a perennial struggler, much to the delight of his mates. He is a former Bears, now Raiders tragic. A rangy lock who avoided running the ball at all costs, he once tackled (flopped on) John Hopoate. Web geek by day, web geek by night.

I could be wrong, but I’m fairly confident Valemei and Schiller started in centre and wing respectively
This one is a grey area. You and I both know that’s how it played out, but to save grey areas we need to go off official team lists. And unfortunately the team lists said otherwise.
Should Kodi Nikorima be upgraded to a FB this week? Started rounds 12 & 14. Round 13 was a bye so it shouldn’t count.
