You're the Perth Bears and you have a completely blank slate to pick your ideal players. The spine is the most important collection of players for any team and can be the difference between premiership threat or also rans.
So, which of the below players are you choosing to build your team around. The only catch, you can't choose 2 players who are currently with the same side. So no dragging across Hughes and Munster.
I've thrown together a mix of proven NRL performers, some solid contributors and some young guns.
Not every NRL spine player is available every year, so you get to choose from the below randomly assembled list.
