These teams make a change from ones with about 8 kickers and forwards costing 60k

That was my idea behind the rule changes, to make the game more competitive/skilful instead of having 600 teams that look the same!

It's so tactical, I feel like a real manager

It's very difficult to put a value on forwards. With no points for defence other than not being on the losing side it's always going to be tricky. Also the measurements for a forward are more subjective, could you measure meters gained, tackles made, missed tackles and how would you score them to balance out the try scoring from the backs???

I tried to pick forwards that'd play every week and grab the odd try but that don't cost the earth.

We are actually looking into having a scoring factor for the forwards but it won't be introduced until next season. We are making big impact changes each year, 2012: new look system, 2013: points for kickers and other system tweaks, 2014: forwards? and anything else we think of.

Maybe tries counting double for forwards?

Negative points for sending off and sin bins.. or is that already a rule?

Considering a few changes, especially now that it looks like Turner will be kicking for Saints
