Not a bad team on paper....but you have MAJOR issues with your 6 & 7. They are fringe 1st graders at best.

Not to mention the fullback. Barba is a talent but he is unproven and would be in the bottom 3 fullbacks in the NRL at this point.

You don't even have a genuine prop on that bench, Chris Armit is so underrated... he'd make that bench easily.

Lets not underestimate Eastwoods performances as a prop in the four nations. But Dene Halatau excitement? Whats he done since 2005? In a year or two he should just move to Parra as they look to build a 3rd all star circa early to mid 2000's team.

I'm not underestimating his performances at prop but it's a whole different ball game doing it week in week out in the NRL. A lot easier to get up for a couple of big games, seen plenty of kiwis do it in the past and not being able to go back and replicate it at club level.

In saying that I'd probably start him but I wouldn't call him a recognised prop just yet.

dogs fans better think hodgkinson is not the savour because he is not, the finals game vs the dragons manly had a lot of ball in saints half in the first half he went missing he is a dud.
Talking up souths the same really tell me how successful buying preimerships is? look at the amount of preimerships manly and the roosters have tried to buy but unsucessful, and sandow is not a half backs arsehole.

I would say Dragons are favourites, but roosters still question marks to me. I really think the broncos could do anything. Warriors history shows don't back up a finals year with another, expectations is not there strong point. Gold coast aging squad, still very good at home top 4.

Penrith are in for a tough year in my opinion they really have nothing. Tigers have all the elements to win the comp. Cowboys and sharks terrible sides on paper very tough year.
Parra could do anything but so unpredictable. Dogs big pack but top 8 at best. Storm, will revenge is the word and they may just get that. Manly had there run at top salary cap has started to eat team.

My Gf Dragons vs Broncos.
