Dragons weak defence
Sharks high hopes
Titan's the same
Rabbitohs implosion
I think the Sharks will work it out at some point and push for the eight. The other three teams have work to do.
Nobody really expected much coming in from the Dragons. The defence from them the last two games is pretty concerning though. They will miss the 8 but I think they will improve as the season rolls on.
I thought coming in that Souths would finish between 5th and 10th. They could actually finish lower than that if they don't get it together. I get the feeling they will fluke some good wins somewhere but I do genuinely question if they will make the 8.
The biggest disappointment is definitely the Titans. Pastings by the Dogs and Dragons is not the best way to start a season. Not only has Hasler not improved their defence, they have actually gone backwards from Holbrook. The biggest concern for them is that under Holbrook, they sometimes had the points in them to get out games with the two competition points because of a "You score, I score more" approach. Their attacking well has well and truly dried up. With Tino out long term, I fear Fafita will have one of those years where he is a bit off. I think they are in deep shit.
As far as most disappointing player goes, Cody Walker definitely has that final year Thurston look about him.
