Aside from a vaguely dull sense of inevitability about who finishes top (although they might bottle it in the grand final of course), it's excitingly difficult to make a prediction on the final table. As my fellow Bulls fans have said, I'm happy to be scrapping for 5th spot. Getting in the playoffs would be a lovely achievement after our recent years but isn't a must for me.
Again though, whilst I'm really pleased Leigh have found stability, the predictions of how high they will finish from Schofield and fans alike, seems a tad optimistic.

I think you would have to dislike Leigh to have them finish 9th,wouldn't you King James?

Bradford top 4 easily for me. Their back line could do damage in super league.

If Toronto are top under McDermott will it be because Wilkin and Brierly coached the team?

They should be able to pull someone out of one of the bars behind the ground to coach that team to the top..  |

Schofield is a dinosaur & his mouth is his own worst enemy.
GS predictions are laughable as is his poorly educated buffoonery on the free Facebook channel, often serving only as the class clown on the panel.
Top 8 will look something like this ....
1. Toronto
2. Widnes
3. Toulouse
4. Halifax/Bradford
5. Bradford/Halifax
6. Leigh/Fev
7. Fev/Leigh
8 York

Can't argue with any of that. That's a near perfect summary of how I feel about Schofield and how I think the table will look at the end. |

You got several places wrong.
It will be:
1. Toronto
2. Toulouse
3. Widnes
4. Featherstone
5. Bradford or Halifax.
6. Bradford or Halifax
7. York
8. Leigh
People will be surprised by York, which has Ben Cockayne in the halves, and especially Featherstone, which has signed Leeds forward Brett Delaney, the ace PNG centre Thomson Teteh, and PNG's incredible halves duo of the brothers Ase Boas and Watson Boas.
Gary Schofield's placing Leigh second shows what a poor judge of teams he is. Schofield was a great player but a clown of a commentator. |

Widnes should finish above Toulouse, be amazed if they don't.
How Schofield can predict us finishing 2nd, when we currently have 18 'part time' players signed up.....bizarre to say the least !

To be honest, I don't think you'd gotten to 18 players signed when he made the prediction. Which makes it look even more silly.
No offense to Leigh, I'm sure you'll do well if you get the balance of your side right and manage to avoid any injuries to key players. The trouble is, I'm not sure who else you'll be able to sign up at this stage and that means you may be reliant on DR/Loan players - which is never a good strategy as you can lose those players without a lot of notice

Widnes will not finish above Toulouse. Widnes only has only five quality players left -- centres Krisnan Inu and Anthony Gelling, prop Wellington Albert, and utility forwards Harrison Hansen and McGraff Leuluai. The rest of the team is sub par and will not compete with the dynamic Toulousains.
