wigan have lost a good coach plus a lot of experience and top quality players. bradford and hull fc's recruiting in my eyes is worse than poor and arent going anywhere but down ( i dont like it but i think it will happen ) wakefield habve recruited well i think and i can see salford going on the up with this new stadium and new coach i can see them having a good season

Salford 7th? No chance. Club in crisis, dont be fooled just because they have a new stadium.

Except that if you finish first you win the League Leaders' Shield, which in my opinion at least, matters quite a lot.

I actually when trying to do this realised that in my head there's serious doubts about any of the top four for different reasons like Leeds not really having a hooker and relying on McShane, Wane being a potential disaster and not really replacing Tomkins & Hoffman. Saints losing Graham I fear could rely too much on Roby but I think they'll go well and we're ageing whilst we've lost King and need Waterhouse to be a sound replacement for Anderson.

I actually think Catalans are the ones who could really have a serious go at winning SL this year, I almost put them top of my table but with all the travel that they have to do, it's a bloody big ask.

Never write off a loiner/rhino

Wigan have also lost Coley. Whilst he was big and daft, he did hard yards for them.

Think most people are being very kind to Huddersfield. Every season we hear about this being their "breakthrough" year and yet again they don't deliver. Now that opposing teams have the measure of Nathan Brown's tactics they'll have another similar year to the last, and the one before that, and the one before that, and...

Very difficult to predict, Leeds have probably the best continuity along with us. Saints might suffer from the stadium move initially as it will feel like a neutral venue and Graham is a BIG loss. Wigan have got new coaching staff and have lost some good performers. The only real certainty is the bottom three but not necessarily in that order.

Widnes will finish higher than most people on here think - mark my words....

Watch them for 10 th spot if not higher.

It will be very interesting to see how the Wolves squad as a whole re-groups after last seasons sensational weekly super league displays, despite then ending up without winning any major trophies come play off time?
This squad needs to pull together even more and continue with its philosophy of fast entertaining RL, they clearly have the best sl coach at the helm in Tony Smith and the playing squad to eventually deliver the holy grail of the super league grand final winners trophy

It will be very interesting to see if there are any major personnel changes within your squad for 2012 though

As it must clearly have a disruptive element to it?

This year I expect Saints to be quite a lot stronger - if only for the reason that they can't have as many injuries as last year. Also Gaskell etc have that extra years experience.

Arguably we have a stronger overall squad because the fringe players have that much more experience, but we will sure miss the KING factor.
Now if we had then plus King I'd be confident of doing better tha last year.
