[quote="ArthurClues":1xb7eby1]Think we make the play offs and possibly the top 4 with a combination of the Arthur effect and the addition of some good/very good players making the difference. Crucially though, we have to start well. Confidence for this side (and the support base) is really important, and if it's lost early on we could flop again. Elsewhere, it's hard to look past Wigan unless they are very unlucky with injury.[/quote:1xb7eby1] Yep definitely Leeds need to start well. There's too many scars still there from previous years, confidence will soon go and the fans will quickly lose patience if we don't start well.

[quote="Seth":8ul0q0wy]Swap hull with one of the bottom 4 I think.[/quote:8ul0q0wy] Yeh I'm probably sticking my neck out a bit with Hull Seth. But surely they've got to improve on last year? Wakey could surprise a few, but still think they'll be bottom 4.

1. Wigan 2. Hull KR 3. Warrington 4. St Helens 5. Catalans 6. Leeds 7. Leigh 8. Huddersfield 9. Wakefield 10. Castleford 11. Hull 12. Salford Salford bottom only because they seem about to be plundered by other clubs and I've seen how this can sap the energy out of clubs. They will start ok with a siege mentality but things will fall away pretty quick as they lose their best players. Not convinced Hull will do any better than last year. Rapana has apparently got himself injured in training. Cas, Wakefield and Hudders are interchangeable. Leeds I think will improve but it takes time to build a competitive squad so they won't start to challenge for top for four a year .
