Position updates

September 22, 2020September 23, 2020 JB

If a player starts three games in a row in a position they are not named as eligible for on NRLCEO then we will change them after the third game.

This allows us to be responsive to changes, but also removes the need to change players if they are only filling in for a position temporarily due to injuries in their squad.

We will also update their positions if they play four games non-concurrently throughout the season in another position. This is to reward those flexible utility players that fill in other positions throughout the year.

Please note that players starting off the bench do not qualify for position updates as it’s sometimes hard to determine their exact position.

With all that in your melon, we now list all of the players who have had positional changes throughout the year so far:

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.

Hi guys
What about Ben Hunt as a hooker? He’s been playing there from the interchange since round 5
Thanks

  Needs to start in the position to get an upgrade. So he needs two more weeks now.

Hey guys, I believe Justin O’Neil should be listed as a winger as well, having started there 4 times this year. Rounds 10, 11 & 13 as you have listed as well as Round 8 (which you may have missed). Cheers.
