If you think a player is better than the one currently in his position, then replace that player and put him as a reserve.

That's a pretty good team and does include around 8 internationals. It would be interesting to compare it with the Widnes,St Helens and Wigan equivalents.

I suppose Fulton and Helme are as good a halfback theoretical pair as any.
And the outside backs are pretty decent too.
The forwards look to be our downside.
