Bradford over the past couple of years have been pretty much also-rans so if they were to get into the top 2 or 3 then it would be a bit of a shock...and for me, with the quality of signings they've made added to the fact that I cant see a major, stand-out challenger to Leeds this season then I wouldnt be massively surprised if they did end up in the top 4...Leeds by a long way ahead of everyone else with Saints, Warrington, Bradford and Wigan at the top of the next level.
If we can finish top of the bottom level (if that makes any sense??) then I think we'll have had an excellent season...I'd count the "bottom level" as Crusaders, Salford, Quins with the middle tier being Hull KR, Huddersfield, Catalans, Hull FC, Wakey and Cas.
Can't disagree with most of that. I think Orford is going to be a huge signing for Bradford and have a similar effect on them to how Trent Barrett did with Wigan.
