NRL Schedule Conflict
Just started a new season with Wests Tigers since the roster update and came across a bit of a team selection/schedule conflict.

Normally City vs. Country would fall on a bye weekend and not affect your NRL or Academy teams, however this isn't the case and the bye takes place the week after having to field depleted sides.

Somewhat on that point is it possible to block Acadamy players from being selected in CvC and SoO squads? I can control it with NSW, but Qld will always pick random National level nobodies from my academy..

The second conflict has now occurred before Origin I, with my 19-man squad needing to be announced before the NSW squad was picked, allowing Woods and Farah for example to be picked in the 19, but then unavailable for game day. Luckily only having two origin reps meant they could be covered from the 19 announced, but had Qld picked someone, I would have only had 16 available game day.

Aside from that I will most likely start a new game with some adjustments.

- Barba is a QLD'er, not NSW. And with that changed, NSW literally has 0 international or higher level halves..
- Alex Johnston is far from a World Class player, nor is he 210 years old.
- Paul Carter world class.. maybe by England standards? Far from it..
- Dean Whare, Sosia [sic] Feki, Lewis Brown, Curtis Scott, Francis Tualau (never played a game..), Sione Mata'utia all grossly overrated at international or world class levels..

That's only looking at 8/16 teams so far and not factoring in the players that should be upgraded from average nationals to at least star and beyond.

Hi ,we have included your suggestions and data into the next update.

Plus we have moved the Country vs City a week later, and I've moved a few fixtures out
of the way of the State of Origin squad announcement.

The update will be applied tomorrow.

Many thanks for your help

Thanks! I wasn't able to make my changes totally accurate, because simply changing the calibre or someone's primary position isn't enough - you have to meticulously change all the stats too, and that can take awhile. I appreciate the time it would take do to an entire league, especially if it's not one you follow closely.

I came across another potential bug with regards to the Canterbury Bulldogs. Their alliance appears to be full of Star National level players and were all promoted to the main squad mid-way through the first season. I'll try to upload a screenshot.

The other 15 NRL teams all appear normal at season's end.

Also, it says that the Coaching Expections are assessed on the 12th Oct, but it actually occurs on the 10th Oct.

Thanks again for this roster update and including suggestions. Most companies would just call it a new game and disregard the fans.
