Roosters
Souths
Manly
Storm
Panthers
Bulldogs
Newcastle
Cowboys

No expectations on us this yr from me
 
If our injury list is minimal and Brooks plays 50% of games in first grade then we will be mid-table. Otherwise, much the same as last year.

No rocket science needed.

Manly
Souths
Roosters
Cowboys
Melbourne
Penrith
Knights
Sharks (depending if any players are suspended through ASADA ) / Warriors (if Cronulla get destroyed by ASADA)

Tigers 11th-12th
 
lol, another thread we can look back on and laugh :laughing:

In no particular order.

Roosters
Penrith
Manly
Storm
Souths
Knights
Broncos
Dogs

Warriors, Tigers, Sharks and Titans to be within 2 points and make up 9-13th.

Eels to improve a little, Cowboys, Raiders and Dragons to make up the rest of the bottom 4\. I'll take a stab at wooden spoon and say the cowboys after JT is injured for 10-15 rounds.
 
MANLY - ALWAYS STRONG
ROOSTERS - POSSIBLE BACK 2 BACKS

STORM - WON'T BE A SOLID AS THE PAST
SOUTHS - WON'T BE #1 THOUGH

BRONCOS - BIG IMPROVER
WARRIORS - ALWAYS UP BUT NEVER THE BEST

BULLDOGS - TOO MANY GOOD PLAYERS
PENRITH - SURPRISE PACKAGE. GOOD RECRUITMENT.
 
Warriors to beat Souths in the GF
then …
Brisbane
Roosters
Sharks
Newcastle
Storm
Cowboys

Manly and Cbury to miss out

Wooden spoon ... Raiders
 
Generally in this order

Roosters
Manly
Souths
Newcastle
Cowboys
Penrith
Melbourne
Two spots up for grabs (Tigers, Sharks, Bulldogs, Dragons, Brisbane, Warriors)

The reason I put these 6 teams in the "up for grabs" category is because there are alot of variables to whether or not they are successful. If Tigers pack don't muscle up, Brooks and Farah won't have the go forward to work their magic. Bulldogs have shown how shit they are without Barba and they haven't really replaced him, Brisbane are putting all their hopes on Barba who I think will take a few years to settle in, and Dragons have recruited some great players but it may take a year to let everyone settle in together.
Sharks, all comes down to how raped they are by ASADA and Todd Carney's fitness and Warriors are Warriors…nothing assured.
The other top 7 teams I feel will get in. Roster is too good.
Other teams, Eels, Titans, Raiders won't get in
 
1\. Manly - Pains me to say it, but they will be minor premiers.
2\. Roosters
3\. Storm
4\. Rabbitohs - only if they stay injury free - they lack the depth they had last year.
5.Cowboys - I've heard the cleanout up north is brutal and the Cowboys will reap the dividends.
6\. Warriors - Relatively unchanged squad
7\. Tigers - only if we stay injury free
8\. Titans. - A young relatively unchanged squad who will learn from there mistakes last year and sneak in.
 
Damn this is really hard…..

1.Roosters- Same as last year.
2\. Rabbitohs- Same as last year.
3.Newcastle- Same as last year. (But to tell you the truth with all these arrests...I don't know what to think...)
4\. Cowboys- Will do better this year.
5\. Manly - (Players are getting on) -On the Slide
6\. Storm- (Players are Getting on) -On the Slide
7.Panthers- On the Rise
8.Sharks - Same as last year. (If they get some points taken off them the Raiders will take their place)
.
Damn that was hard......
 
Surprised people are rating Newcastle and the Dogs. No recruits of note (Packer gone from Newcastle) and both scraped into the 8 last year.

Your right they did Scrap through but the Knights Walked the Walk when it counted and went all the way to the Prelims only to get knocked out by the Premiers. They showed really grit and i think most of us wanted them to beat the Roosters.( Well i did lol)
 
1\. Manly
2\. Easts
3\. Souths
4\. Penrith
5\. Melbourne
6\. NQ
7\. Cronulla
8\. NZ

Penrith are my smokey for top 4\. Cronulla won't be there if ASADA pings them and Gallen gets hoofed in which case I'll say Canterbury will sneak in.

Faiders will get the spoon. I reckon we'll about 10th place.
 
My predictions:

1\. Rabbitohs - They'll lose to cowboys in GF
2\. Sea Eagles - quality halves. lack of front row will cruel them in finals
3\. Cowboys - JT finally captains them to the club's first premiership
4\. Storm - always consistent, but will fade in the finals again
5\. Knights - bennett is building this club nicely
6\. Panthers - over achieved last year but have recruited well
7\. Roosters - year to year they are the most inconsistent club (eg 08-top 4, 09-spoon, 10-GF)
8\. Dragons - my smokey to sneak in the 8\. good offseason recruitment

9-12 (no particular order) - tigers, broncos, bulldogs, sharks
bottom 4 (no particular order) - eels, raiders, titans, warriors
