Firstly, we aren't arguing we are discussing which strangely is what a "discussion forum" is for.
Secondly, the discussion is relevant to the thread.
Think the teams 9-14 will defo finish bottom 6, it's just very hard to call it from there upwards. Leeds and Saints will be the top 2 (yet again), I don't think Catalans will be able to replicate what they acheived this year, Hudderfield will just sneak in the play-offs imo just behind Bradford who arent looking half the team they were 4-5 years ago. I highly doubt we won't make the play-offs this year even after what happened last season, however I still think our squad isn't as strong as it could be, therefore I would rule out the top 4. Although I do believe our squad's still marginally better than Hudds, despite their strong looking team this year. Also I would hope that were good enough to finish above Bradford considering their decline, and even though I arent convinced Wigan and Wire will do so well, I still think their squads are stronger than any other team, apart from Leeds and Saints.

I reckon Agar will stick to Radford at 13 and have Tickle partnering Crocker with Manu off the bench. This will mean a really unbalanced back row. We need a ball player there otherwise we will carry on using Tony as a pivot when that is one of his weaknesses imo. Don't think Thorman has ever shown he is good enough for a top 4 side, so I will be suprised if that changes. Agar didn't change our tactics much when he took over and with him seeming to have some sort of thing against Hall, we won't be able to use Calderwood to his full effect in attack and Raynor will only show glimpses. Yeaman is our only hope of getting tries in that backline if tactics stay the same. I really, really hope I am wrong though and Agar changes the style we play dramatically, and also sign a prop or two (and a 7+centre, but can't see any of that happening)
We will see a different Thorman I can see him kicking to the wings just got a feeling him and R Horne Will pull it off I think Agar will play Radford at prop just an opinion I still think we will shock a few people and teams

Radford at prop ??? Yes that will do it !!!
Let's add a SR with absolutely zero go-forward to our already, easily dominated, pi$$ poor front row.
