The rest are filler as much as anything, i am training forwards at the moment so these are realistically the only guys i have to play with... After demoting it looks like i will have a pretty easy time of it this season unless one of the other teams invest heavily so i can experiment. currently I'm thinking of a reshuffle and playing Tagliacozzo at 15 Marolleau at 13 Luaki 12 Gerrick back to 9 leaving culpit at 10 and stickler on the wing which i think may be wasting him and exposing cull pit. so this is my dilemma all help and opinion would be great.

Lauaki or Marolleau at 9. Handling is the key, Marolleau has better attack and agility but isn't quite as strong, try both and see which you prefer.

But without doubt put your best passer at 9

I'd say a good attack at FH is important, then if you don't have a kicker or 9/10 you need one at 15.

Thanks, I've had a go with Luaki at 9, the review doesn't like him there... got about the same stars as he would at 13 though, will keep him there a little longer. at 10 I'm playing culpit with maroleau at 12 and stickler at 13 but he seems to do better on the wing. Tagliacozzo is at 15 where he seems to be doing pretty well and gerrick is a wing but he definitely plays his best at 12. any further advice would be handy, I'm going to continue to experiment here. thanks again

A complete thread hijack, but I have the same question regarding my backs.

I've been looking for some one to replace Kamo on the TM, will probabley wait till later on in the season and the prices to calm down a little. I've been looking for a winger and then planning on moving Minime back to 13. I would also like to replace slaymaker, this is complicated by him being captain and my other options in terms or a high leadership rating are probabely a season or two away from having enough experience.

Just wondered peoples opinions on their current positions? and what skills/type of player I should be looking for to replace Kamo and possible Slaymaker?
