9. Raiders
10. Titans
11. Bulldogs
12. Rabbitohs
13. Sharks
14. Knights
15. Eels
16. Cowboys
So difficult. Raiders, Titans, Bulldogs, Bunnies and Eels are all finals chances but you can only fit in 8. If the Cowboys come out of the off season better for it they will also be close to the 8.
Raiders with the injury to Campese will make things tough, Titans to fall back to the field, Bulldogs to be better in 2011 but don't think they will be contenders, Bunnies with Burgess could do anything. Panthers to drop back to the pack, Elliott will continue to pick his favourites.
Sharks will improve, Knights are a season away from making a surge for the 8 with some young stars arriving at the club and the Eels and Cowboys under pressure in general. Problems in the front office equate to problems on the field in a lot of cases.
