It seems that you can pick any player in the backs to play backs, you can only pick half backs to play their position and again you can choose any forwards in any position.

7th in the league, so far so good! LS14 Rhino 1 point in front of me!

What relavence does the bench have?

They score points the same way as the starting 13. The idea behind an interchange is to make selecting a team a little harder IMO.

Still haven't quite worked out which way to go on it, more defencive players or offensive but your better off having forwards who play 80 minutes.

It seems to me the big points are in the forwards, as they spend most of the game driving the ball up field. But it is good to have a few prolific try scorers....
