i agree with robbie paul, think table will look something like this , but you always get one team doing allot better than predicted and one having nightmare like hull have had last 2 seasons ! top 4 is what i am hoping for
Am I missing something about Wigan ?? Why are they being tipped for great things ?? They have added Paul Deacon to an already average but competetive side and everyone is tipping them for top 2/3
THANK YOU Mr. PEARSON, FOR RIDDING US OF FCKWIT FUBAR, CEO TOOL AND THE STINKING UNCLE KATH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY DON'T THE DOBBINS PLAY IN GREEN SHIRT, GREEN SHORTS AND GREEN SOCKS IN ORDER TO EXPRESS THEIR INFINITE ENVY OF EVERYTHING BLACK AND WHITE??

I can remember the last one actually got in the Grimsby Evening Telegraph. It showed a picture of the Hull city centre,completely deserted,and a clock showing 12 `o clock. The caption was "Hull, high noon."

While great things seem to be expected of Wigan this year (long-term they seem to have the right strategy now), why does nobody fancy Catalans to do well? They took a while to adapt to the new coach last year, but when they got going they looked good and they recruited decently.
I'm genuinely surprised that Rovers are so consistenly far down down the rankings. The peloton is hard to call and we've been predicted lower than we've finished every year in SL, so perhaps I shouldn't be.

because most 'experts' look at the name wigan or bradford instead of looking at their squads
wigan do look strong but after their first 17 they look weak take a look at bradfords squad, their pack is probably one of the weaker packs in sl this season, which won't be good for orford to play behind

Catalans look to have a very good squad and I expect them to go well, got some quality backs.
Im suprised also Rovers are down in the pecking order according to most 'in the know' also, we are no weaker than last season and we are stronger as far as I can see. Yes alot of teams have strengthened their squads but these teams will need to gel.
Hudds are one team for me who will not go aswell as they managed last season.

Cats need a strong start, to improve this year they have a great finish, also have to take into account the travel, however I fancy them to be further up this season.
A lot will depend on Hudds how the present situation affects them..
I do not see how you are stronger tbf, your pack is too light presently also I fear you have no depth in your squad and a couple of injuries could cause you big problems.

No real need to explain it to you, do you think we was light up front last season?
