Colourbond walls. Is it worth putting a layer directly behind wall panels? I'm going to put earth wool between that and an internal ply covering. Any thoughts?

Depending on how much direct sun your walls get it might be a waste of money. I have my north wall well insulated but east and west are completely uninsulated. They get a few hours of sun each day early and late. The temperature inside barely gets above ambient outside. It's the insulation of the roof that makes the most difference I have found.
