Nonsense. Better to win the finals, but most fans would agree losing in the semi-finals in the worst outcome. Also, financially, there is a great deal of success from getting to finals, win or lose.

Nothing particularly prophetic about predictions for 1st and last.

Hull will be flying under the radar after their horrendous finish to last season but still think they have far too much quality to be outside the top 4 or 5. Cas & Wakey have good settled squads and will lead the way for "the dark side".

Could be a transitional year for Wigan with the departure of some big names and a new coach but it's Wigan so they'll still comfortably finish in the tiop 8.

Despite a couple of well known NRL recruits I'm still not convinced Leeds can mount any sort of serious challenge in the league/play offs. Moon will be a big loss for them. As for Catalans, it'll be the usual mixture of utter brilliance and total ineptness but if they can get their act together consistently then they could be genuine top 4 challengers.

As for 9,10 & 11 it's a tough call. Personal.bias and massive faith in our spine means I'm tipping Salford to finish "best of the rest". Whilst we lack serious pace in the backline and our pack has been weakened by the loss of Kopczak & Tasi, our 6,7 & 9 are top quality and this should produce some decent ball for the likes of Sa'u & Evalds to have bumper (by Salford standards) try-scoring seasons.

Even Catalans. There's the prize money for a start with, the opportunity to build fan base on the back of success, extra merch sales etc etc. Plus, in their case, what should be a good pay day at the Camp Nou.

If Tuimoala Lolohea and Konrad Hurrell lose weight and get into a trim condition, then they will be explosive. In which case Leeds, given the addition of Trent Merrin, and the return of Kallum Watkins, are guaranteed a top four spot.

The matches Catalans vs Leeds, Catalans vs Warrington, Catalans vs St Helens, and Catalans vs Wigan, are going to be the clashes of the season.

Jean, do you have kids ? Perhaps you could bring them down to wheldon road for R1 as it's kids for a quid. Would have thought the dragons will be licking their lips at injury hit Castleford who will be without internationals Lucas Gale, Oliver Holmes and Benjamin Roberts, with stalwart Grant Millington a doubt the dragons will have a great chance to win at Wheldon Road for the first time in years. This game could be a close one and come to down to the know how of the coaches.


Cas by plenty.

I'd say we actually have the best side in the league on paper.
