Most skills do help, but I'm posting the main ones you'll need on each position

Carrying, Speed & Strength (mix depending on the type of back), Agility
Not as Key
Jumping, Catching

Do not bother training
Throwing, Kicking, Punting, Tackling

FB (note this is more a blocking back - speed should be within about 10 points minimum of HB)

K/P
Key skills

Note
Vision and Stamina are very important for all players. Vision less so for K/P, DL and OL, but still needed

Confidence can help, but not that much really except for K and P.

Training Tip
When you train plan it so you can get as close as possible to 100% energy for the next game

If this means training on relaxed, then train on relaxed. It's better in the long run.

Special Skills are a bit different. There's really no right or wrong way to do it.
Generally I think it's better to wait until skills are higher to put point in them, but putting one or two at the start is ok
