I tip Huddersfield to finish 4th (which is ahead of Leeds) next season as I believe they are a slight improvement on last years squad they had. They also have a good coach. Leeds by comparison now have a bunch of jokers in charge.

I'm also factoring in the additional experience of six Huddersfield players in the England Four Nations squad down under who all performed far better under McNamara than seven Leeds players did under Tony Smith in 2008 when they collectively shamed us all.

Eorl Crabtree's really good too.

Hudders have a settled side and coach and have recruited quite well. Barring a massive injury crisis they should be good for top 5. Leeds suffered from injury a lot last year but that looks set to continue in the early part of the season too add to that a new coaching set up and I think Leeds will finish 5th.
