1st - 4th Get ya fkn money on it. The team will fire on all cylinders this year and it will be a pleasure to see the Drongo's come last beside the cheating Storm.

Am I the only one who doesn't rate De Gois that highly? I thought John Morris was great last season, and has always been a good dummy half just never got the opportunity to make it his own. De Gois is a massive liability in defence.
Carney's stellar season in 2010 had two important ingredients to it that often go unrecognised a good organising halfback and a good game plan. Cronulla don't have a halfback with the organisational skills or quality of Pearce but they've got a better pack than he played behind in 2010 so that kind of discounts that. Which leaves just the game plan... good luck Flannagan.
I'm tipping 4-8th if Flannagan can come up with the goods.
He is the safest coach in the nrl... we wont pay anyone out.
Carney needs a strong halves partner.
RWB - De Gois is thumbs up. Newcastle's player of the year in 2009, then injured for the rest of his contract. Morris is still around, a rotation of him and De Gois seems pretty solid.
Injuries might explain his inconsistent performances but it doesn't explain his consistently poor defence. I'd be playing him as an impact player off the bench. I thought Morris was awesome for you guys last season, gave you a lot more structure and took a lot of the defensive workload off guys like Gallen.
Anyone that doesn't rate the sharks spine seriously needs to have their heads read if they leave Morris out and put kelly on the bench then they have the potential to shred most teams in the NRL.
You then have Gallen leading the pack and not having to be a playmaker or organise the team anymore he can pick his time when to indulge a little, he alone creates havoc when he plays this way.
With Kelly out last year you only had to shut down Gardner Graham Smith and Gallen to beat the sharks in the 2011 season this year looks like there is a number of players opposing teams are going to have to be very careful of it doesn't look to be an easy task if they start firing.
I picked them at 13th last year I believed they were one player out of the eight but adding carney to the mix this year with degois and some forwards with shit to prove led by Gallen and Smith a young pacy spine with halves that can actually pass the ball I say they will make the eight wouldn't even be surprised if they come in around 5-6.
I rate Degois. Can't say the same for Morris or Aiton
:lol: Shred most teams? Bahahahaha you're the new South Sydney. Gallen was never a playmaker and I don't see him causing 'havoc' when he plays for NSW or Australia with the best spines. He's a hard working forward not a second 5/8.
When they had Kelly on the field they tore a few teams a new asshole one of them was the premiers as well something the roosters couldn't do if the tried lol.
ok gallen touched the ball every bloody set of six from the games I watched and seemed to be calling all the shots so if you dont call him a playmaker what do you call him in that regard I am not saying he is good at it at all what I am saying if he stands back and injects himself when needed he can cause serious problems for opposing teams?
As for NSW and Australian teams whats that got to do with club footy?
