Rugby League positions are so vastly important and more so now in the modern game certain players are position specialists.
Each team lacks in a certain position, a number that could take their team from good to great.
What position does your team need to strengthen in the coming years, or in some cases, right now?
We delve into the missing piece for your team.
Sydney Roosters: Centre
This idea that the Roosters “play for premierships” is one that has come back to bite them in recent seasons.
With talent across the park, it is hard to get a read on what position this team needs to strengthen.
James Tedesco is getting better with age and looks like he will play on, and Daly Cherry-Evans could potentially go again in 2027 meaning that with Sam Walker and Reece Robson at the club, the spine is sorted.
Mark Nawaqanitawase is the big loss for 2027, but the Roosters sorted it instantly signing Manly flyer Reuben Garrick.
On the other side Daniel Tupou is now on the wrong side of 30 and could look to call it quits soon, but with plenty of players in the wings are fine.
Rob Toia has one centre position locked up but Billy Smith has an injury rap sheet that the Chooks would be nervous about. Strengthening the centre position would really help bolster the tri-colours, and knowing the Roosters recruitment, it will be a big name.
