GF Wigan v Hudds. winner = Hudds.
CC Saints v Leeds. winner = Saints.

Think Saints have recruited the best for 2014 the half back situation let them down last year in the big games although Wilkin did well they just needed a recognised half to make the right decisions.
Wigan & Wire have lost some big players & i think they will be huge losses. Have a stab at your end of season league standings & cup winners?

Grand final Wigan v saints , winners Wigan

It was supposed to be a serious prediction.... our bet still on?

100% serious , and yes the bet is still on

Good & you seriously think you will finish above Leeds?

It would appear so

Optimism = meaning hope for the future..... i like it.

Tightest league for a long while imo.
this season might be 1 to soon for Saints, Wigan and Warrington both look a bit weaker too. Leeds another year older but the bestback division in the league. Huddersfield stronger than last year too should be there or thereabouts.

It's a tricky one with Leeds tbf they probably have the best back 5 in super league (as a collective that is) but the forwards are a worry if I was a Leeds fan

Sinfield,Peacock & co will be wanting to have a cracking year as they wont have many more left, I don't know what to expect from Salford they could be very good if they stay disciplined & stay injury free they have very good strike players mixed with youth & experience & 2 cracking halves Rangi could turn a game on its head at an average team so he could work wonders with his new team, just wondering if Nobby can keep them disciplined? or is it worth opening a pub near the training ground?

I don't buy into the poor Leeds pack that i've read on here.

Leuluai
Aiton
Peacock
JJB
Delaney
Bailey

I'd imagine that will be the starting pack with Burrow, Ablett, Kirke, Ward and Clarkson fighting for a bench spot.
Thats a strong pack imo and they'll be there or there abouts again.

Agreed, and considering their set of backs they should do very well in 2014.

7th for fc

same as last season for top 5, between hudds and saints for top spot

sorry kr fans, dont see what all the euphoria is about your signings, i think hudge is living in dreamworld if he thinks his team can displace any of the big 5 let alone top 6!

depending on bradfords' situation, no doubt they will get looked on favourably by the rfl and somehow come out smelling of roses and escape the drop


just my opinion, no doubt some dobbins will take offence

dark horse-catalan if they can decide to turn up when travelling, not just at saints!
challenge cup-gunna go for us, after last seasons flop st wembley i reckon it will be top of Pearsons' (wish) list!
grand final-love to see hudds get there but always seem to choke at the last hurdle, so going to go for saints
biggest flop-wire/wigan-loss of key players will disrupt their campaign

although i could be wrong on everything!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
