Nah Schoey loves Leeds. he may say some daft stuff sometimes and have a fair bit of envy of the lads who swept the trophies in recent times as opposed to his lack of medals but lets be honest, a lot of stuff he said was also echoed by many on here and calling out of the club seemed justified at the time, it wasn't all perfect far from it particularly during the Brian Mac years.

Lots of hard to call things this year. A few new coaches and covid makes predictions really tough. I expect Saints and Wigan to be the top 2 again, and I think Leigh and Wakefield will be scrapping to avoid relegation. Beyond that it's anyone's guess really. I like the look of Huddersfield, they have quietly put a good squad together over the last couple of seasons and I like Watson as a coach, I can certainly see them in the playoffs.

It also seems like everyone is writing off Hull, but I am really impressed with everything that Hodgson has said and done so far. He is very different in his approach to what Radford was, and that's exactly what we needed. I also think Jake Connor is set for a huge season in the number 1 shirt. He has the talent and he has one of the best full backs of the modern era to learn from. If he applies himself and listens to what he's being told then he could be a man of steel contender imo.

You guys are tough to call, you have a good squad and have proved you can beat anyone on your day, but I still have very little faith in Agar's coaching ability. Warrington will be there or there abouts again before falling short. Catalans will flatter to deceive. No idea about Cas or Hull KR (who have recruited really well actually). Salford will probably struggle.

Wigan
Saints
Warrington
Hull
Leeds
Huddersfield
Catalans
Castleford
Hull KR
Salford
Wakefield
Leigh

I certainly won't be putting any money on that though!

Where is Shaul going to play?

He is out injured long term, he will miss at least the first half of the season. But if Connor is a success I suspect he might be used on the wing when he returns.

Schoey just likes spouting off whatever crosses his mind at the moment. Yes some of it is complete dribble sometimes but to his credit, he will stand by his dribble if wrong and will front up for the consequences.

(Wakefield nudie run anyone?)

Hastings rumoured return to the NRL could knock Wigan's chances if it comes to pass

He's been rumoured to be going back to the NRL for over 2 years, I'll believe it when it happens

I'm surprised Hastings like to have secured a gig for 2021. Too slow, and don't cm think he'll make an impact in NRL...

I think that Leigh will finish last. Can’t see them winning many games.
