Thought they would have done it last year with the Wiki factor - they were awesome in the playoffs. (up until the semi of course)

finishing 8th was too much. they ran out of steam.

i was at the semi vs manly (going for the warriors) and i never thought they stood a chance against manly.

with steve price there next year you always hope. great backline, forwards a little light.

they got kemp from the broncos.

1. Manly
2. Warriors
3. Storm
4. St George
5. Gold Coast
6. Cronulla
7. Brisbane
8. Knights
9. Roosters
10. Canberra
11. NQ
12. Wests
13. Bulldogs
14. Souths
15. Parra
16. Penrith

not bad

i reckon parra will make the 8.

broncos to miss out

and cowboys closer to 8 as well.

I've aslways been house at tipping so I wouldn't put my house on it!

Parra. Will improve.

Anderson will kick out all the trouble making tøssers from the sqaud this year for 2010. Or two, his "style" will not get the response he desires and no-one wants to play under him.

Please see Warriors c.2002 for ref.

I just can't see past Manly to be honest......being a warriors mand though....

Warriors will be top four this year, I've put sly $100 on at the TAB for them to go all the way!

Fien and one of either Witt/Moon will be the starting halves. Stacey has said himself he only expects to play a handful of games. Foran was highly rated, but the Storm let him go without much concern, and Fien deserves the jersey after his end of season heroics and the WC.

Kemp on the right wing and Manu on the left give us great options....with Ah Van & co as more than able back-up's. Tate & Ropati at centre, McKinnon & Hohoia fighting out for the full back jersey as well.

As for the pack Rapira stepped up a level at the end of last season, so it'll be between him & Packer for the other prop slot with price. Mannering, Lillyman & Luck give us a pretty handy 2nd row and lock unit as well...perhaps missing a game breaker like a Pritchard, but still pretty formidible.

That's not really looking at our impressive U20's either, who were very impressive last year.

I've lived in NZ for four years now, and this is the best squad we've had in that time........shame about the new kits though, they are rank rotten!

It's McKinnon's jersey until he's injured, or more likely, suspended.


Pritchard is lazy and only good for a few games a year.

Great squad though.

Want the Dogz to go well but think they will miss the 8 just.

Manly, Parra, St G-Illa and Melb are my top 4.

ive missed the dogs as well from the competition, hopefully this year will see them back to whats made them famous.

they were awful last year, not that it was their fault.

St George for me

parra's a joke
