Think the addition of Blake Austin will have Wires right up there this season.
We might have to wait until 2020 and the signing of Widdop, amongst others, to feed at the top table.

6th to 10th depending on how badly hit by injuries we, and everyone else, are

Forwards simply not good enough IMO

1 Warrington
2 St Helens
3 Castleford
4 Leeds
5 Wigan
6 Catalan
7 Hull
8 Wakefield
9 Huddersfield
10 Hull KR
11 Salford
12 London

Rovers where rubbish last year sign some average players and they think going to be top 5

Got the Wizard haven't they?

While you lot where Fantastic ( especially the last 11 games ) and sign No one

Yes, but the majority of us are anticipating a disappointing season. See the difference?

Here's mine. I think 6th to 9th are a bit of a lottery. I don't think we've signed anyone that improves our team but I don't believe we're a bad team when fit. For Rovers, Cutherbertson is a great signing whereas Linnet is a bog standard plodder. Never really been sold on Hauraki either. Drinkwater should offer them the most improvement. I think Hudds are still in decline and losing Brough and Ikahihifo will hurt them badly.

Cutherbertson? And Linnet aint no plodder. Can only agree on your top two choise, think 3rd to 8th is anyones

Up to losing Kelly and Sneyd we was 5th so not that worried. We could have done with one signing but unfortunately not happened.

The problem for Hull is there are a number of players who are coming back from injury and until they start playing we will have no idea if there are are any permanent or long term effects that are going to hamper their performance: Kelly, Sneyd, Bowden, Mini, Manu, Green, Talanoa, Carlos and Griffin either haven't come back yet or were not up to speed when they did. If most of them are OK then the team should be competitive. The other big if is how well Matongo, Bienik, Litten and Lane in particular progress. I'm not bursting with confidence but I'm hopeful.

Meanwhile we have the comedy from the unwelcome dobbins intruders (where have they been the last 2 years?) somehow thinking that a side that avoided the MPG on points difference thanks to a Widnes side that was trying to lose is now top 4 material. Fat Mose is going to be a real force with interchanges down to 8 and Fanny McGuire and Lunt booking 2 of them for their early injury exits.
