You can't change a bad culture overnight Broncos to miss top 8
 
I'm pretty bad at these but here goes:

**Premiers (excluding West Tigers)** Broncos

**Rookie of the Year** Far too early to say but probably a Bronco or Warrior

Hmmm… Yep pretty early, but lets play:

Runners Up (excluding West Tigers) - South Sydney
Dally M Winner - Chris Lawrence
Rookie of the Year - Jacob Miller
Coach of the Year - Michael Maguire
Wooden Spoon - Manly (I pick them every year)
Leading Try Scorer - Chris Lawrence

Tigers NYC Player of the Year - Mosese Fotuaika or James Tedesco

imagine a NSW centre pairing of Ayshford and Lawrence
I'd be over the moon :smiley:
 
I predict that Souffs will win the Charity Shield, carry on like they have won the comp and that it's finally coming good and they are world beaters

Second prediction is I laugh my arse off at the Souffs fans when they finish 11th. They are usually easy to find, just look for a methadone clinic
 
Penrith and the Roosters to fight it out for the spoon

Dragons, Parra, Souths and Gold Coast to all miss the 8

the Raiders to be the dark horse

Farah to miss out on Origin yet again

Wouldn't be able to call him "underrated" anymore now would we….

Anyways, I'll bite.. having said that I tipped the Sea Eagles for the Spoon last year.....

Runners Up (excluding West Tigers)- Storm
Dally M Winner - Farah FINALLY!
Rookie of the Year - Omar Slaimankhel
Coach of the Year - Sheens
Wooden Spoon - Penriff
Leading Try Scorer - BEAU RYAN - NOT. EVEN. KIDDING.
Tigers player of the year - Moltzen
Tigers Rookie of the Year - Jacob Miller
Tiger Debutants - Begovich, Tedesco, Reddy, Grant, Blair. Koro, Noafuluma (spelling, sorry)
Tigers NYC Player of the Year - James Tedesco
Tigers SOO reps - Galloway, Farah, Lawrence, Ayshford, MOLTZEN
Other predictions

* Dragons and Bulldogs fighting for 8th spot.
Sharks to make the eight.
Panferrs to flop HARD.
Tigers to contend for minor premiership.
We won't have as many injures as last year, infact we'll get through relatively unscathed.
Ironically we'll stuggle at SOO for once, however our 20's/state cup players will more than flourish in FG with Tedesco and Grant starring during that period.
Grant will get a contract upgrade before the year is out, and will take Lote's spot in 2013.

Aysh was underrated by his own club supporters this time last year!!!

Plenty were calling for him to be dropped to the bench for Daniela or Brown in 2011 - and all I will say is that talent and character always wins out - & Blake has both in spades!

I have always rated him & defended him against his ever shrinking base of critics - but it is Aysh who through his performances has changed the minds of many doubters - which is of huge credit to him!

As for Origin - I would not trust another centre in the entire NRL to mark-up and out play Inglis - but Blake is the man for the job!

Not to mention if Merritt crosses the chalk once, all the Souffs fans will start carrying on how he should be given a Blues jumper, followed by the mandatory Mundine "whitey be keepin' us down" hate speech.
