Everyone needs to understand that if we are even the slightest bit lucky with form and injuries next season a top 4 finish should be expected.

Just take a look at our forward pack for next year, and then glance at our backline....

2011 ladder prediction

1. Roosters (Seriously the team to beat next year, runners up have been known to win the next year in recent years so that's why I have them high up)
2. Raiders (Showed some brilliant form & were unlucky to lose to the Tigers in the finals)
3. Dragons (They wont regain the premiership & lets hope not for another 30 years lol)
4. Eels (Most likely will be back in the finals under the direction of a new coach)
5. Bulldogs (I think they will be back to their winning ways, I might have them abit high but they usually make the finals every second year or so)
6. Knights (Really think we could be the fairytale club next season, premiership probs not though)
7. Panthers (Will drop off abit because they play too inconsistent)
8. Storm (I think the loss of Inglis will hurt their premiership chances muchly to win the comp)
9. Tigers (Will miss out in dramatic circumstances like they have done before)
10. Manly (I don't want to see these scumbags to make the finals,also they can be ****poor at times)
11. Titans (Their biggest ever winning margin is 26 points so they dont even deserve to be premiership contenders)
12. Sharks (I can see them improving slightly but no finals appearance)
13. Warriors (Will drop off dramatically, injuries will screw them up)
14. Cowboys (Around the same **** position as last year because its where they belong, also Jt will probs get targeted next season & be seriously injured)
15. Rabitohs (Have a **** winning culture & have only made the finals once in 20 years,)
16. Broncos (After missing the finals for the first time in 18 years they get the wooden spoon for their 1st time ever aswell, weakening the Broncos brand for a new team in South East Queensland team to come in. Losing Bennett as coach was the worst decision they ever did as a club.)

13. Bulldogs
14. Raiders
15. Tigers
16. Rabbitohs

Now cos i know people like to argue with an opinion, ill justify my answers further with my opinion.

1. Storm, will still be too strong, while being a competitive team again and a point to prove, will be too strong. Still have the 1,7,9.

2. Dragons will do what they did this year, strong well discilplined game. Still boring to watch tho

3. Sea-Eagles, have a few back from injury and the scandal etc in te back ground. Will be alot better than this season

4. Titans, will be solid all year round like this seasons

5. Roosters will carry momentum and confidence to 2011 from a pretty good year this year

6. Warriors, have recruited well, and are really only adding to a solid team

7. Panthers will grow alot, the had alot of younger guys come of age this season and can only get better, having Lachlan Coote back full time will be a plus, one of the best players in 2010

8. Eels. Have recruited real well, We'll have to wait and see what the new coach change does, however i dont think the coach was much to blame for 2010

The bottom 8, I think Benji Marshall is due for a season ending injury soon, my prediction is around the first 2 months of comp he will cop a knock and be out. Tigers wont recover. Bulldogs have recruited massively this year and last, but they are all strangers to each other, will be interesting to see how they gel, but will take a while. Rabbitohs will hit a hurdle too.

Around the 9-11 will be the likes of the Sharks and Knights who will play well but will be off the pace

thats sort of dog to tigers and benji.
and knights will make the eight!!!! :badgrin:
 
Anyone without eels in the 8 is a major oversight IMO. Stephen Kearney will do wonders there, they have a nice team on paper and will thrive with a good coach
