With the removal of the salary cap from RFL approved clubs, can't see how we can win this year, but would think a challenge for 3rd is there. Bookies agree Leigh, Bradford, Broncos, Sheffield, Fax is the pecking order.

Not necessarily the order of shirt numbers I'd choose Offerdahl's a bit far down the list and Garside should be higher up the list. he did enough last year to be considered a starter. Up to the new boys to prove themselves.
Life is pretty simple: You do stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works.

Be very interesting to see who makes first choice halves and run on side props. Challenge for new guys is to break into a good run on 13.
