I can't honestly see me team Cas Tigers making the play-offs - but wouldn't take many from the London squad over my team. Cas Tigers 9th or 10th - London 11th or 12th.

I would think 8th would be the minimum aim for London this year. That squad is very capable of it and if they dont make the 8 Mr Rea should be asking some pretty serious questions .

Really weak looking squad. Witt is terrible. Dorn or Sarginson should be above him in line to play stand-off.

Dorn was playing 6 towards the end of the year under Tony Rea with Robertson at 1. That worked well. I suspect Sargeson may go to 3, that said he played 6 for the Knights. Plenty of choice.
I agree about Witt-Slow and poor in defence. All he seems to have is a boot.

It is hard to imagine that a team of the talent of Catalans will not make the top 8. True they have a new French coach who is untested. But he is being assisted by a very experienced Australian coach named David Waite, who has coached Newcastle Knights and Great Britain.
The match between Catalans and London at the Magic Weekend should be very entertaining, especially the contest between the two best scrum halves in Super League, with Craig Gower up against Scott Dureau. |

Not this year Henry. I find the trial games boring and lacking conviction. I will wait until next year when the Super League season proper begins.   |

Well Smokey you've peddled this twaddle for the past ten years - as they say if you chuck enough darts at a dartboard you will eventually get a bullseye (though probably not this time). |

London do have a lot of potential in their squad, but im pretty sure (On paper) that our (Wakefield) squad is alot stronger.... Although, I reckon London will finish around 10th |

I wouldn't say Wakefield are "a lot" stronger at all.
I'd take Dorn over Mathers
Robertson over Fox
Sarginson & Collis are about equal
Howell over Smith
Dixon has pace but Cockayne has aggression - equal
Sykes over Witt
Gower over Smith
Kaufusi over Poore
Aiton over Randall
Raleigh over Bryant
Lauitiiti over Bailey
Rodney over Kirmond
Washbrook over Clubb
Wilkes over Wheeldon
Amor over Krasniqi
Cook & Mariano equal
Lee & Wood equal
So that's 6 to London and 7 to Wakefield, with 4 equal. I think the 2 clubs won't be too far apart in the league.

Can't get over Poore making Bailey cry like a baby can you  By what logic Kaufusi over Poore
Rodney over Kirmond is spectacularly out, unless you have based it on a reputation gained years ago. |
