I think this season will be very close right trhough the top 6 positions and I don't think Leeds and Saints will get it all their own way although if Leeds can sign a centre they will be clear favourites for me.
Tbh I think 3rd-8th could be a lottery, Wire always flatter to deceive, Wigan lack props and will miss Trent, Bulls are not the team they were, Hudds could do well if Carney settles in, Ctas will be under pressure this season which they might stuggle with, FC are an unknown quantity just now and so on.

Will be a really tight season I reckon.
So do i.
Teams have patches of form at different times.
If Rovers win 2 of the 1st 3 games then it sets them up for a strong challenge.
Derbies will probably go 1 win each this time round.
Catalans are under pressure to repeat last year and with a different coach.
Lowes i dont believe will get the best out of Wire.
McNamara will be under immense pressure if Bulls get off to a bad start.
Wiagn could be anything.
Hull need to prove it was injuries and not a lack of quality last season.
Quins, Wakey and Cas will turn teams over.

Oh and Bradford far better your having a laugh arn't you?
Over the season they are much better and will get more points, head to heads dont matter in a league, its about how many points you get and these teams will all get more.

Richards can kick, is a better defender, there is no one better in the air, he is a leader.

Just about spot on with everything you say there, I just cant see my team doing any worse than last season with the added depth we have brought into the squad.
I don't see it as a job. It is a passion and love that we all share. Neil Hudgell

Agree with all that. Can't get my head around the open chequebook approach of Warrington towards their playing squad but going for Lowes as coach.

Outstanding, love the subtle way you placed Rovers 9th, but think only the teams third to eighth will be in a positional lottery, as you point out all six have weaknesses but you apparently think all are to strong for Rovers, did you not watch any rugby last season, with the inclusion of Salford and Celtic you think Rovers will drop 2 places let me remind you YOU FINISHED 1 PLACE OFF BOTTOM
