1. Leeds - Can't really see anyone beating them in the regular season, we've strengthened further whereas Saints are similar to last year.
2. Warrington - I think they have the greatest chance of breaking up the Leeds Saints dominance. Myler will be key.
3. St Helens - Long Gilmour and Cayless replaced with Soliola Moore and Fozzard, Eastmond will have to have a big year if they're going to challenge.
4. Wigan - Will be there abouts but won't win anything I don't think.
5. Catalans - Johnson and Sa are good signings, but I think they need Bird to really have a chance of silverware. He showed in the play offs that he was a quality player.
6. Bradford - Despite losing Burgess, I think if the Orford rumours are true they will have a good side next year and improve on a poor 2009.
7. Hull FC - They've brought in some quality and I think this year they'll make in the eight.
8. Huddersfield - It will be difficult to repeat the brilliance of last year but they'll scrape the eight.
9. Hull KR - Again a great season last year and will be a difficult to beat but apart from Dobson I don't see where the quality is going to come from.
10. Castleford - Not really much difference in the side but other teams have improved whereas they haven't
11. Wakefield - It's a very different team this year and they've replaced some dead wood with quality but I can't see them making the eight.
12. Harlequins - Very average team by the looks of things.
13. Celtic - Hoping for a better season for them this year but can't see them doing better than 13th.
14. Salford - They've lost most of their good players and replaced them with not much really.

WCC - Melbourne by 10.
Challenge Cup - Leeds Bradford final.. Leeds by 14
GF - Leeds Warrington - Leeds by 8

If we managed to finish fifth with 'deadwood' in our squad, byreplacing them with 'quality' we should be capable of a similar or better finish.

I think Catalans will finish above Warrington, Wigan and possibly Saints with their forward pack.

1. Leeds rhinos- cant see anyone stopping them again next year, however i do predict the gap will be closer.
2. Catalan Dragons- Ive got a feeling, especially after the signing of dallas johnson that they will be the team to watch next season look like they have real potential.
3. St Helens- saints will be a force still but they need a big year from eastmond, soliola will be key.
4. Wigan Warriors- i expect a good season from us next year, a new coaches influence will definately have an effect and i can see our defense being extremely tight. wigan also have the same squad so weve got a bit of continuity there.
5. Warrington Wolves- Wire need to finish in the top 6 this year, with the players they have signed the spotlight will be on them. however i still think they will have the tendancy to turn in a shocking performance and cant see them getting over that culture
6. Bradford bulls- some good signings around bradford for next year, if they get orford they could finish higher, however i dont think mcnamara is the man to get the best out of that team.
7. Hull Fc- hull look to have signed some good players for next year, if they can keep long and shrek fit they will be in the top 8 come the end of the season.
8. Huddersfield- dont see them improving on last season, they will just get in the 8 in my opinion. other teams around them seem to be making more significant signings and moves.
9. hull kr- going to say the same about kr to be honest; they have some talent but again cant see them doing much next year.
10. castleford- cas will have another decent season, and i am looking forward to seeing how some of the players, such as owen and westerman develop, they could be pushing for england places next year.
11. wakefield- cant see them hitting the heights of last year; however i hope they do because i like the club. be difficult for them with the rumours of the problems surrounding the club with debts.
12. crusaders rl- i think the noble factor alone could see the welsh pushing upwards next year, if he can recruit some real solid grafters i can see them finishing further up.
13. harlequins- think quins are going to have a quiet season next year. they really need to improve on the finish to last season however i cant see how they are going to do it.
14. salford- they will miss myler, however the likes of ratchford can really step up now, they have some quality youth coming through at salford but i cant see them getting off the bottom.

world club challenge:- melbourne to comfortably win, they have a quality team there and i cant see leeds being able to live with them.
challenge cup- wigan- maguire will lead us to a final and i think a trophy next year.
super league- catalan dragons there pack is going to be huge and they are constantly on the up- walters should know them better in the second season anyway

So you can't see anyone stopping Leeds but they won't win anything?

[quote="Meyt N Prater Pie"]I think I hate wigan.[/quote]:1617.jpg



Leeds - Eastwood is a good signing, he gives them more beef in the pack and once again they're the team to beat.

Saints - Younger side. Soliola is a quality signing and will bash people about. Graham will have more support in Fozzard and Eastmond will get a settled run in the side. I think he'll have a big, big season on the back of a good Tri Nations. Big pack, but lack of pace in the backs.

Wigan - New coach should bring more consistency. I think they'll be a fitter and more organised side next year.

Wire - Could take a little time for the new boys to settle, but once they gel they'll be a tough team.

Catalans - Great additions to the squad and will be a threat.

Hudds - Added some quality to their side and will be strong once again.

Hull KR - Can't see them challenging for honours, but they'll make the 8.

Hull - Stronger side, but much depends on injuries. Long is past his best, but he'll bring experience and organisation to the Hull side.

Bradford - Made a couple of good additions, but I question the coach and the loss of Burgess will be difficult to overcome.

Wakefield - Difficult to beat under Kear, but lack quality.

Castleford - Good, young, exciting side to watch, but it'll be hard for them to make the 8. They may just make 8th.

Salford - Similar to last year. Can't see them challenging.

Harlequins - Might start well, but always seem to fade.

Celtic - Noble has a tough job and needs to make signings, otherwise they'll finish bottom.
