2020 Season Predictions 1 - 16

Here's an educated guess on what willl happen next year let me know yours ?

RaidersBest Defence in the comp best Prop in the Comp, and have signed more good English players
StormBest Forward pack in the comp but have lost key attacking player to Union
EelsBest halfback in the comp, best wingers combo in the comp, have improved forward pack with key signings
Eagles Tobjevic brothers firing off a powerful mobile forward back, DCE chiming in, they’ll be real good
RoostersStill be good but are losing key attacking players - lattrell, also think JWH has peaked and they all look tired
PanthersDark horse of the comp could do real well
SharksGood young team coming through but losing Gal will hurt onfield leadership
CowboysToo good of a forward pack to do shit again but still wont do great
TigersLosing Matterson and not signing Latrell will see them do pretty average, Farah and Mashall both gone too lack leadership Alex Twal will be shown up badly in 2020
SouthsNo Sam Burgess, were lucky to finish where they did in 2019, seem them plumetting in 2020
TitansSlight improvement next year because they have too, Meniga will harden them
BroncosUntil they sack precious Darius they’ll continue to suck big time, real team tension between the young and old boys
BulldogsKeiran Foran medically retired, will stuggle again to score points
KnightsJust don’t gel well Klemmer and Mitchell Pearce will have shit seasons
WarriorsCant travel across the ditch that many times and not be affected, Stephen Kearney must be the greatest salesperson in history
DragonsHave made no good signings, coach is shit, De Belin wont play in 2020 as case is delayed that will fuck there cap even further, Norman will erode them from the inside

  • Maj. I think it may be the Raiders next year. I think the Storm may struggle a bit losing Chambers and maybe Ado Carr

    I do think the Eels will be up there next year, i am very happy with our squad.

    I think Souths may struggle to make the 8.

    I think the bottom 4 will be Titans, Dragons, Warriors and maybe Cronulla is they get hit by injuries

  • Benji is still playing on this year.

    I don't think Panthers will be that high to be honest. They've got an incredibly young team and have just lost one of the game's best halves in James Maloney. 

    The Storm are an interesting one. They do have an issue at halfback after Croft went to Brisbane. They've also lost both centres and possibly JAC, so they'd be working with an entirely new backline.

  • Raiders will do ok, dpends on their latest english man if he can handle NRL top 4

    storm will be there as Belamey always finds away though his mistake was dropping Croft for Hughes still be top 4

    Eels should make the top 4 with luck

    Eagles will be top 4 depending on injuries

    Roosters lost of Cronck will hurt but having him assist with young Flano as half will do ok top 8

    Panthers who knows has talent galore but depends on which team turns up may scrap in the 8 will battle it out with the Dragons 

    Sharks will miss the 8 

    Cowyboys will be much the same and miss the 8 and Green sacked

    Tigers lose alot and no decent forwards miss the 8

    Souths no good signings yet and lose of Sam will slide and miss the 8

    Titans will improve with a couple of good signings but miss the 8

    Broncos with Croft as half organising will improve and make the 8 but still lack quality backs

    Dogs will be gutsy but lack quality and miss the 8

    Knights have a good side and may crack the 8 if they get their act together

    Warriors will be a big disappointment as usual

    Dragons may scrap in the 8 will battle it out for last spot in the 8 with the Panthers

  • Raiders hahahaha wtf !!

    your dreaming buddy

    raiders over achieved big time, if you watcg their games they were very lucky to make the 8, then got momentum and took into the finals, and they even got lucky in the finals. 

    We wouldve belyed them if we played them at bankwe They got lucky !!

     

    they are shit 

    they will struggle next year

    • Cotric won MOM

      THey should of beaten the roosters

      Papalii is the best prop in the game

      They beat the Roosters and Storm twice

      There an awesome team and just shows what could of been with Ricky Stuart

  • 1.Storm

    2.roosters

    3.parra

    4.souths

    5.sharks

    6.manly

    7.knights

    8.Tigers

    9.broncos

    10.raiders

    11.panthers

    12.tigers

    13.dragons

    14.warriors

    15.titans

    16.bulldogs

  • The Dragons will be higher. Don't underestimate them. Sharks to compete for the spoon.

    • Mary is the worst coach in the comp bar none, I can't see them going much higher than 13th.

      • Mary has flanno helping him  next year which should help.  Also without distraction of de Belin during pre season and knowing they don't have Widdop should help develop new structures and combinations.  It was never going to work with Widdop, Hunt and Norman and injuries further complicated things with none of the 3 playing to potential.

        I expect hunt to have big year and strike up good combo with McInnes but still only fringe top 8.

        • Hunt is myth, ever since he dropped that ball on the kick off and has never been the same. Most overrated half in the comp, a pedestrian. 

          Having two chiefs is never a good idea

          Norman has humiliated himself and like i said 2 years back anyone assosiated with Norman ends up kissing there career goodbye he's just a bad news guy, great for a laugh and a party, terrible for team culture.
