If Toronto stay up, there’s going to be one very annoyed club owner, who will possibly see his club’s eventual demise. Could any other club match their spending?
I think Saint/Wigan/Wire are certainties for top 3 but I think he's in dreamland picking Cas as 4th. I think it's us and Leeds battling for 4th with the outcome entirely dependent on Luke Gale. Whether he's the same player he was pre injury or not, and if he can last the distance. Squad numbers don't always mean very much, but if Kelly doesn't start the majority of our games, we won't win the majority of our games.
The words of fools mean nothing to one who resides in the truth.

Saints are, I think the rest is open, I think we have a really good chance of being above both of those.

The key to this coming season is how much influence Radford allows Purtill to have in training. Radders has a big ego, personally I think Pearson sought outside help in recruiting an attack coach and a lot depends on how amicable the coaching set up is? Radford is an excellent defence coach so hopefully things will work out but can’t help felling he’s looking over his shoulder in case it goes mammaries skyward? Trust is the vital cog. If it works, the sky’s the limit if it doesn’t, it’s another wasted season.

I think you are spot on, if it works we will go well, if 6/8 matches in we are not performing Radford will be gone and Purtil will become head coach. BUT we haven't thrown a pass yet, so Lee gets benefit of the doubt until May, he cannot live on the B2B challenge cups for another season. Pearson has invested heavily, he will want (probably even go somfar as to say demand) a return pf aome sort.

If Radford can somehow manage to get us up for games consistently, we should be mixing it up in the top 3. But if the last couple of season are anything to go by, consistency and intensity could be the problem
