Quote Clearwing="Clearwing"Here are mine:
1. Saints. New coach shouldn't be a handicap to what will still be a good side
2. Wigan. Look like being a tough side with some gifted players too.
3, Hull FC. Will find the consistency that's proved elusive.
4. Wire. Much depends on their halves going well.
5. Leeds. Might scrape the play offs though really just mid table filler
6. Cas. A further step down from their glorious 2017.
7. Salford. Will continue to post some impressive results under Watson.
8. Catalans. Will continue to toss it off. M. Gausch should dig out his cleaver asap.
9. Wakey. Will be flaky and shaky.
10. TWP. Will scare the bejazus out of their backers but will survive. Just.
11. Hudds. Gearing for a better 2021 as their youngsters gain experience.
12. Hull KR. Not sure Tony Smith is the right fella for this end of the table.
GF: Saints
CC: Wigan
Promoted: Leigh'"
Looks to be a pretty good assessment.
I would have Wire ahead of FC and probably Huddersfield ahead of TWP, who I think will find super league a much tougher proposition than they perhaps think.
Yes, they've signed SBW but, I dont think he will be enough for the step up to SL
Positions 5-9 though could be in any order.
Leeds do look to have improved their squad and hopefully, Trinity wont see a repeat of last seasons endless injury list.
KR do look a little vulnerable though.
Success, at least in terms of league position, is all about putting a run together and should one of the "mid table" sides put a run together, just about anyone can make the play offs, just as Salford managed (spectacularly) last season.
If Catalan dont make a decent start, they too could find themselves at the wrong end of the table.
Plenty to look forward to and lets hope it's a great season.
