Posting your team is giving other people a chance to look and see if they can improve theres so i wouldn't call that cheating.

Not cheating ???? but the nth degree of your arguement is we would all end up with the same "ideal" team.

IMHO it destroys the competitive element and therefore true intention of the competition.

No, but it is a ridiculous and pointless waste of time. I'm not sure how anyone could expect to do well when they base their team on the hints of others anyway. It's like a schoolkid copying on a test - you can't expect to do better than the person you are copying, so why bother?

I think you need to no-one has disagreed with you. The original arguement was down to a simpleton saying it was a cheating method, which before that started off with the whole changes not locked so people quickly putting in the try scorers on Friday evening arguement.
Woosa keep up m8 then maybe you might have a valid arguement one day, not catching half a story then spitting out your dummy

basically people should make there own mind up about there teams and not try and copy everyone elses team , because everyone will have almost exactly the same team and would be a pointless competition, people are using transfers trying to get there teams like people who are doing well and post there team and every change for every one to see!
especially pokerface 43 transfers after 5 rounds!!!! i bet you wont finish in the top 100 as you wont have enough transfers left to cover injuries.
i dont think any of the front runners have posted a team and they will always be infront of the people who do!

So what if I have used plenty of transfers, when was the last time I posted a team for everyone to see? My thoughts exactly, there is 2 of the big 4 who share their ideas and are still in the top 100 so seen as you have taken the time out to look my team up, where are you in the league? Im currently 233/2929 overall and 27/342 in Rhinos league, IMO is nothing to be ashamed of!!!
And like I said earlier the whole point behind this arguement is someone saying its cheating, when clearly it aint!!
Is it cheating when Mick Potter looks at the Rhinos team and tactics to counter it before game time?

each to their own if they want to share i honestly think they have no chance of winning.

No, because Mick Potter doesn't have the ability to change Paul Wellens for Brett Webb, Sean Long for Rob Burrow or Keiron Cunningham for Paul McShane before the fixtures are locked before the start of the weekend, just to free up some cash
