No 1 - Mebourne Storm. Barring injury Bellamy will have them to a point where they are unbeatable. Could be a big grand final score.
No 2 - Bulldogs
Mid 2022 I made a comment. The Bulldogs are closer to a title then us. Whilst they may not this year they are going to be in the mix for the next 5yrs.
No 3 - Canberra
Another side I predicted to start their grand final march. 2026 I felt was more likely but they are a genuine top 4 side this year. I rate Ricky as a coach. He knows what it takes.
No 4 - Penrith Panthers
Saw enough on the weekend. Ivan's slowly getting them into their groove. Nathan showed why he is the best halfback in the game. Blaize Talagi is only going to get better every week.A future star who was able to exercise his PO and make the move west to the premiers. If him and Mclean fire and the seasoned players do their job the 5 peat is on.
No 5 -
Roosters - They'll continue to improve and Walker will return soon. Very impressive considering the squad and players who left in 2024.
No 6 - Warriors - Certainly a finals side. But probably not a huge threat come finals. Defense just isn't there.
No 7 - Sharks - Built like BAs 2019-2022 Eels. Making up numbers and barring a huge injury crisis elswhere id guess maybe can win one game in finals but most likely get bowled out in week 2 in embarrassing fashion.
No 8 - Cowboys- Great attack but defense isn't good enough. Can play finals
No 9 - Manly - As above. The Turbo and Jake duo is 2 million of dead cap space. Time to move on.
No 10 - Broncos- They have the squad to challenge Storm. I wouldn't rule them out yet but they need to start to get it together.
No 11 - Dragons - Could be sitting top 4 had it not been for some field goals. Another side who is a red got chance of playing finals if don't get to any injuries.
No 12 - Rabbits - As players return they'll go on a few mini runs. Finals wouldn't suprise but there are better sides.
No 13 - Eels - Ryles has them heading in the right direction. Operating with a squad min 1 mill under cap I am liking what I see. I'd suggest had it not been for Moses,Simmonson and Lomax injuries along with being so far under cap they be sitting about 8th in the PRs. The defense is getting better every week.
No 14 - Dolphins - Hot and cold
NEW COACHES NEEDED BELOW
No 15 - Tigers - Expected more.
No 16 - Titans - Should be going better
No 17 - Knights- Appauling side.
No 2 - Bulldogs
