Travis Mayn is the only sensible one

Interesting that the Cowboys are getting so little love.

They handled the Broncos pretty well I thought in the last trial. They have an exciting fullback and some hope that JT and Holmes may return to good form, halves could easily perform very well if that trial is any indication.

The only prediction I am confident with is that you can count on character.. d***heads going do their thing.

I think the Bulldogs are stacked with them, so would be surprised if they go well, though when you are last there is really a lot of upside to explore :)

Storm to finally slide down the table significantly! It's going to happen and be fun to watch.

From nothing more than a gut feel, I think we’ll finish somewhere 5-10, hoping closer to 5.

The Storm won't but it is nice to believe they will. Next year maybe.

I feel like we'll be sitting around dick in hand until Ezra is 5/8th and something happens at hooker.

You forgot fullback... we also need one of them as well

JT is done until he leaves

Holmes has been overrated for years.

We have one if Upton is allowed to play against men.

We don't have a fullback yet. But we have Ezra in waiting while we **** around, and Blake Mozer the heir apparent for hooker. Jake, Cory Paix, Billy whatever in the meantime. None are setting the world alight.

Sooo the season is dependent on a 19yr five eight, finding anyone in the team that can play 9 and ??? at fullback.

Sounds like we should be sweet then.

You answered your own question......handling the Broncos is nothing to rave about.

If nothing else, I hope they’re largely right about Billy and Queensland this year!

Also gotta love seeing Bennett’s lapdog calling Ponga and the Knights divorce this far out. Wouldn’t be anything to do with his most likely suitor and the man Coaching them at all.

Why are so many people hyping the eels? Is it their draw or something?? I don't see it..

Also. I'm shocked so many people believe:

PANTHERS will go back to back (they won't have it in them mentally, they're far too young to still have passion to build for another premiership, the heartbreak of 20 was what pushed them to take it out in 21)

RABBITOHS to easily make the 8. (This one is most shocking of all. There are SO MANY outs for Souths to be even considered a sure thing. Their captain and main playmaker Reynalds gone, leaving the easily triggered Walker and Latrell to be the "leaders" of the side. Please... It is so easy to put their now primary playmaker off his game, you're basically able to vex the guy into throwing a punch and missing games. Same with Latrell. He's easily going to miss a quarter of the season. - no more Bennett - please, the guy leaves every club in shambles - this brings up the rookie coach. No Gagai and no Sua)

This is probably best posted in here - my bad

behind the Tigers (11th), Bulldogs (12th) and Knights (13th).

the only non NSW team they have making the 8 is the Storm, lol

p.s. they also have this for us: Average Readers’ pick: 6th

That's Adam Pengilly's pick. Christian Nicolussi has us at 10th ahead of Knights, Titans, Warriors, Tigers, Bulldogs and Cowboys. Truth is we'd probably settle for that right now.
