This is where I feel for TLA & player selection, I personally feel for a lot of the untoward criticism is not justifiable.
- 13-15 players per team to realisticly select from.
- We want the “superstars” as Australian sport is different to the US.
- Cards are usually in production 6-8months + in advance.
Let’s look at Storm team, (
bias
but stay with meStorm has 4 signatures cards this year. Plus players from previous years, which really limits the choices.
1: Pappy
2: George Jennings (Not a club last year)
3: Reims Smith (Not a club last year)
4: Justin Olam
5: Josh Ado-Car ( Signed YG 2017/ leaving)
6: Munster (Signed 2016 YG/ 2020 LS)
7: Hughes (2021 Traders)
8: Jessie Bromwich (Signed 2017)
9: Brandon Smith (2019)
10: Welch
11: Kafusi (2020)
12: Nelson
13: Dale Finucane (Traders 2020)
- Kenny Bromwich (Traders 2019)
- Tui
- Grant (Not at Club in 2020)
- Nicho (Very limited minutes/ leaving)
Add this to the NRLs high turn over rate, of players at clubs. Going to be very difficult to get selection spot on every time without doubling up
Thanks Matt for the update. Could the league sensation from the dragon's be one of the same players that has signed in the last 3 years.
It is a fair point you make however to avoid double ups, can the Authentic series be discontinued?This is where I feel for TLA & player selection, I personally feel for a lot of the untoward criticism is not justifiable.

I would have the YG signature in Traders like it was in 2013 and then have the black version or parallel variant in Elite.
