  1. Cronulla drop out of the 8 this year. No Gal, they already have issues with injury and managing the cap. It will be too much for John Morris to take on himself.
  2. Raiders perform strongly all year and get the minor premiership, but fall short of making the Grand Final.
  3. The Storm's finals run comes to an end, just falling short of the 8. They struggle to find consistency in the halves.
  4. Dragons coach Paul McGregor is the first coach to get the sack after a terrible first half of the year.
  5. Freddy's Blues make it 3 in a row.

  Danny Levi is a very good hooker so I still rate manly, especially if turbo t stays on the field.  When he played last year they had a great winning percentage.

  Foward pack of Adin fonua Blake, Marty Taupau, Jake trbojevic with a Clive Churchill winning representative half in DCE.  Add in Turbo T who I rate alongside teddy and RTS as the best fullbacks in the game when he can stay on the field and it means they have class across the field.

  If you rate Parra you have to rate manly as I rekon most would choose quite a few in their squad  over current eels players.  To me manly are one of hardest teams to beat this year depending on injuries.  I read a story recently which said they had wins over roosters, melb and raiders last year so unlike Parra they can win big games

    I agree. Manly, like a number of other teams, could, with a touch of luck (injuries etc), win the comp. The hooker situation sucks for them but if it was gonna happen it happened at the best possible time. It allowed them plenty of time to reassess and adapt to a different hooker.

  1) Dragons are in all sorts of trouble. Mary the first Coach to be sacked

  2) Tigers don't have the forwards and will fade badly as the year progresses.

  3) Manly and Penrith to have good years. Manly especially could go Top 4.

  4) Storm will frustratingly stay near the pointy end of the table all year.

  5) Cronulla, Dragons, Tigers, Titans, Bulldogs, Warriors all miss the 8. Question marks over Knights, Cowboys, Broncos, Raiders

    Wish Raiders would miss the 8 but There was a marked improvement last year which I am blaming Ennius for and if he is still there I think they will still do well. They even did well last year while Hodgson was out

    What makes you think Dragons will fail?

    They have some injuries but decent depth. Don't expect a fade this year.
