NRL 2022 - RD1 Lineups

After the weekend's ALL STAR game it gave us a great indication of where some players are as we near the end of the preseason. Therefore I thought it would be a perfect time to dive into some of my round one lineup predictions for all 16 NRL teams.

Ps. I have tried to exclude all players who are either suspended or injured for round one.
