The Junior who he lowballed and let walk out the door only to buy him back a few years later on a shitload more coin that junior??? And RCG was a good get but it all depends when the Panthers stop tipping in. But come on Brussy we all know how Baldie loves the bargain bin.
Without the bargain bin you can't build a competitive team.

As for Paulo, it was a bit hard to offer an upgrade in 2016 with salary cap auditors in our books up to the back wheels.

Where will we finish? 6th, but we'll win a final or two this year.

If we don’t win it, who will? Penny's gotta lose one to win one at work.

Best player? Paulo.

Biggest disappointment? Lane

The first rookie to make NRL debut? f**k knows I don't pay enough attention. Hollis maybe.

Surprise packet? Opacic

Breakout year? Moses - He'll gain some maturity / consistency and become the half he should already be.

Best retention? Cartwright

The biggest name we let go? Michael Jennings ( seems kinda obvious ) Apart from him Sivo

Biggest signing? Pass

Will BA survive beyond 2021 and if not who will replace him? Yeah, so no merkin.

Chooks and Raiders are on the decline. Storm will also be worse this year but that just means they're no longer a mile ahead of everyone else. They're still in the top three teams in the game:

1-3: Panthers/Rabbits/Storm
4-8: Eels/Knights/Roosters/Titans/Warriors
9-16: Everyone else

Unsure about the Raiders. Hodgson was ot there all season. Arguably top 5 player in the game and best hooker.
Yeah they lost Cotric and the pommy. But I've heard they have a few young guns ready to unleash in the backs and forwards. I think they could go either way.
The pommy halfback should also be a lot better with a season underhis belt.

JWH now 32, Morris boys 34 and Friend 31. Guys this age can have careers turn pear shaped very fast. Cordner is missing for half the season.
It leaves a lot of pressure on Keary and Tedesco to have huge seasons The other half is a rookie. I think if one of the two mentioned spent a lot of time on sidelines they could miss the 8 all together.
