| Been to every forum and most predict Widnes bottom.I think a few will be surprised and Widnes will come 11th or 10th.Been underdogs should fire them up and still two major signings to come with squad 18 and 19.Watts and Mullaly are players to look out for next year. ![Thumbs up icon_thumb.gif](images/smilies//icon_thumb.gif)

To the tune of Yellow Submarine...
All we want is the ground you promised us, the ground you promised us, the ground you promised us!!!: |
|
| Our ground won't get started, that's my prediction...other than that nothing else matters, without that we are going nowhere!

| Cas, Bradford, Wakefield fans along with us at Rovers seem to expecting big things this year, you havent signed many so maybe the stability plus your crop of cracking youngsters will push you up into the playoffs this time, Wakey are brand new, to the outside world youd expect them to start slow and be playing catch up, but Wakey fans think otherwise. IMO Bradford and Rovers are in similar positions whereas weve signed a few unknown NRL players, are they any better than what we had? Some Rovers fans are predicting big things from ours after seeing them on youtube for 3 or 4 minutes lol. London im not sure about, but for me the most suprising thing about all these 2012 prediction threads is Huddersfield and how low a lot of fans are putting them. IMO this is gonna be a good season

| No worries, Jonesy. That's a pretty accurate assessment of our position and I think most Cas fans are being realistic in the fact that our expected position is around 8th or just below. Anything above that would be a bonus, I think.

| Castleford will IMO finish out of the play off positions mainly due to the back up strength of their squad
Probably 9th would be my bet, But i think that Cas will play a very entertaining and expansive style of rugby under Basil
I am looking forward to watching Daryl Clarke this season as this kid's gonna rip defenses to bits, he will be a strong candidate for young player of the year in 2012

| As usual, I can see little middle ground. I can conceive a 1999 style run where Basil pushes all the buttons, injuries are kind and we genuinely make 6th.
Similarly, I can see a poor start, with quality missing from the first few weeks and us then rushing players back, ultimately damaging them further and our support goes feral and we have a stinker.
I would love the former, dread the latter, I do worry about our fans sometimes, we got away with it last season becuase the start was so good, but I have seen a lot of times that if the gravy isnt flowing early season, corwd gets a neg on, Basil will be crap, Squad will be poor, usual set of moans and doesnt help anyone.
My only hope is that we get a home atmoshere, win or lose and people go away from our ground thinking that our supporters rock and whatever happens we are loyal to our team.

| We will not rush players back mdean. We could have done that already but we haven't. We are getting injuries right for the benefit of the long term, hence why so many have been having surgery done etc.

| Yeah, I agree right now we are not - but I can foresee thin patience from the watching masses if a couple of things go against us early doors.
I hope we do the right things for the long term.

| Wire to be minor premiers.
Leeds, Saints, Wigan to make up the top 4.
Hull, Catalans, Huddersfield to make the play offs.
Cas, Hull KR, London, Bradford to contest 8th spot.
Wakefield, then Salford.
Widnes bottom.
