Bench Cover

[roti]

What are people's thoughts on the required strength of your bench to get you through the rest of the year?

I'm fairly happy with mine, with all playing except Hannath now in the rucks, but not sure my defence cover will be strong enough to hold up

DEF: Pittard, Clisby
MID: Mitchell, Hrovat
RUC: Nicholls, Hannath
FWD: Staker, Murdoch

This is pretty much with my finished team in place with only 4 trades left, so will this be good enough, and if not, what is?

thats pretty strong, and i wouldnt worry about wasting a trade on Hannath

Hannath will be handy with the loophole mate with Nicholls if he goes big or VC if need be.

Otherwise you have fairly handy bench cover with Pittard, Mitchell, Nicholls and Staker especially.
I'd hold with that now, maybe even downgrade Nicholls to Mcbean for cash injection or even DPP between fwds and rucks if you don't have that already (ie. Cox and Nic Nat) come finals time for your last few luxury trades or upgrades. Other than that well done and good luck mate.

Bit too strong in Mid bench

You could also look at Clisby or Pittard to Oxley to give you Dpp using Staker.
I think I will get Oxley in this week for that reason also. Just helps with flexibility using Staker to cover backs or Fwds if needed.
