Manly aging roster due for slide. Sharks not as good as everyone expects. Broncs to miss the 8. Bulldogs could finish even lower as everyone now knows how to stop em. Contain the forwards. Coz they used guys like Kasiano as extra halves to make opportunities but now everyone knows. Will still be up there but Des needs to use a new gameplan. lol@souffs thereabouts. Cows solid squad.
Before the Jenko signing I thought wed finish 7th. Now higher 5th. Knights was a tough choice but I think they'll miss. If they make it another team gets cut out(most likely Cronulla or the Lime Green Bogans)
Roosters paying very well to make the 8@$1.85 and $4 to make top 4, so I think $50 to make top 4, $150 to make the 8, and $20 on the dragons for the spoon
Souths & the Dogs are certainies due to there coaches & depth.
Newcastle will be next IMO they have recruited the muscle & Bennett whether you like him or hate him will have that side firing.
Next. Cronulla look the goods & now have expectations because of there roster. They need Gallen fit all year (big ask) & they have replaced J Smith (muscle) with L Lewis (footballer) so they basically have the same pack but without the muscle. Flanagan has to take control so all these new players dont hinder the club.
Storm. As much as I rate Bellamy I just cant see everything falling into place for the Storm again for the 8th year straight, surely 1 of the big 3 will get a season ending injury. Smith has never had a major injury has he?
IMO if they lost Smith for the season they would just scape into the 8.
Cowboys. They have a super side they just cant win the big end of season games in Sydney but they are certainies for the 8.
Raiders. Very very good side & I think with Kimmorley signed as the assistant coach they will learn alot from him.
Roosters. The Roosters have the quality players to make the 8.
On Penrith I highly rate Cleary especially with Islander players & I know he has a 5 year plan but I think with the clear out & the 7 new recruits Wes Naiquama, Lewis Brown, Sika Manu, Segeyaro, Dean Whare, Tom Humble & Mose blending in with Sam McKendry, Tim Grant, Kevin Kingston, Josh Mansour & Lachlan Coote they could be a surprise packet this season.
