From what I've seen of the signings of each team so far this season could be extremely close and have a lot of unpredictable results.

I'll start with my team Wigan...

Bowen
Burgess
Sarginson
Gelling
Charnley
Powell/Williams
Smith

Flower
Farrell
Tomkins

I to am happy with this squad, I'd love to know where this lack of quality that some are banging on about is. I have helpfully bolded those who would make most SL teams whilst the rest are pretty much all experienced players and grafters at this level - the usual recipe for a top 8 contender.

Given that Wakey are on paper the weakest team in the league their starting 17 is pretty good. You would think their only problems will come late in the season when fatigue and injuries take their toll. They have proven plenty of people wrong in the past.

The league is looking pretty strong in 2015.

I would say the opposite, the league looks weak top to bottom. If Wakefield for instance were to be relegated I'm not sure many of that 17 would be picked up by other SL clubs. And I think that goes for a few clubs of a similar stature

Quote: Andy Gilder "Leeds

You would feel the key for Leeds is their props. Peacock and Leulua are both likely to be in their last seasons. Cuthbertson is a very good player but can be inconsistent and Singleton could develop into an international but is not quite there yet. After these four there is not much else, so it is either diamonds or rocks!

2015 could be Leeds be chance for trophies for a while, as they prepare to enter a transitional period, so there could be a big effort from them at the back end of the season.

They should be a good bet for the cup.

I would say Widnes have the weakest squad on paper. We've got plenty of depth in the forwards, plus we have a couple of players who could cover the outside backs.

Leeds have been in a transitional period for a couple of years already, the backline has already changed, Sutcliffe is being brought into the halves and will be the first choice half if not this year definitely next. The likes of ward and Singleton have already come in to the pack with Mulhern, Baldwinson, minchella, not far behind, and a robbie Ward coming in at Hooker.

I put in bold the Wakey players who'd walk into most SL team, I did it for the hard of thinking but hey you manage to baffle science. Can't make up whether you hate Wakefield or are just a wind up merchant or a snob, either way it's tedious. Never mind we will carry on beating top 4teams like we do every season icon_wave.gif
