| Looking at the new recruits and past performances, one would have to say that the 2018 Challenge Cup finalists [iWarrington[/i and [iCatalans[/i, will be the two top teams.
However [iLeeds[/i under new coach David Furner, -- if he can get the two Tongan fatties Tuimoala Lolohea and Konrad Hurrel, to lose weight -- will certainly be in the extended top group.
[iSt Helens[/i and [iCastleford[/i will also be competitive in the extended top group.
However [iWigan[/i is the big mystery. They have lost three players, two of whom (Samuel Tomkins and John Bateman) are top rank. They have acquired Zachary Hardaker, whose form after two years out is uncertain. They have a new coach, whose experience as head coach is nonexistent. It is hard to think Wigan is going to be as competitive as it has been in recent years.
Then what about [iHull FC[/i? I see them as mid table along with [iWakefield[/i.
Do you agree?

Who at Castleford is better than Antoine Gigot (Lancelot Todd trophy winner), David Mead, Samuel Tomkins, Remi Casty, Michael McIlorum, Julien Bousquet, and Gregory Bird?

Most of them - Gogot had two good games WOW, Mead show pony, Tomkins has been poor for years but staged a bit of a comeback this year so we shall see if he keeps it up, Casty just a hard worker loads of those at Cas ditto Bousquet. Bird past it and a grub but I might be interested, McIlorum yes I'd have him.

Your opinion and one designed to wind people up I'd guess.............meanwhile you ignore the factual responses given to you......that in their last 15 games of a 30 game 2018 season Catalan won 15 points from 30 (50%), slightly better than the 10 points they got from the first 15 fixtures (33.3%)......
