If the derby was anything to go by it will be anything but, for every try we scored we bombed another two, we played some really smart and expansive stuff but the final pass wasn't quite there at times but hopefully that will come.

Fear the vee, our pack is obviously our strength, but I think you do our backs a disservice. I reckon it's easily in the top 6/7 set of backs in the league.

Hudds look to have great depth but I don't think the first 13 is the best out there. I think they'll probably drop a couple of places this year.
I genuinely think Crusaders will not finish bottom, Quins and Salford will

Joint?

That must be very unlikely, why don't you see what the odds are at the bookies?

Quins or Celtic will come bottom for me. Both teams lack quality and have no real depth to their squads.

I'm undecided about bottom, If Noble can get that much effort every week, and their fitness improves Celtic could get ahead of Quins and Salford, however I think those 3 will defniitely be the bottom three

Salford and Crusaders will struggle again, though I think Quins could end up bottom of the pile this year (although I'm surprised not to hear McDermott claiming they can win it this year, after all what's the point of playing otherwise?).
Unfortunately I think Cas will also struggle, smaller squad than last year and look completely unfit and out of condition. Though I'll be happy if I'm wrong.

Thats what I meant to say!
You just put it a bit better

. I've done that plenty of times, typed something fast and when re-reading it sound either stupid or with some sort of unintended pun.

Our pack is deffinately one of the best in the league, we have size, power, aggresiveness the lot this year. There's nothing wrong with our backs either. Plenty of speed and players who can go the length of the field. Tansey will link up with our halves greatly and can see him been one of our top try scorers this season. Our pack will lay a great platform for our backs to cause havock near the line.

I'm confident this year

I personally think Fitzgibbon and O'Meley are well past it. Your bench are monsters though.
Personally I reckon you'll finish about 6th

O'Meley is, Fitzgibbon isn't.

O'Meley is 4 years younger than Fitzgibbon?
