I think the Dogs will be right up there again but I doubt Keating will be the HB. Don't forget Hodkinson was out with a knee reco this year. He is a much better player than Keating
I will put these in order later & rate them after how I think they will be come round 26,
Teams to make the 8
Sharks
Storm
Sea Eagles
Bulldogs
Cowboys
Titans
Rabbitohs
Warriors
Teams to miss the 8
Dragons
Eels
Raiders
Tigers
Panthers
Tigers
Broncos
Roosters

agree but i also reckon josh reynolds wont be able to sustain the level of play he currently is if he is put under more pressure. He is an average 5/8 that had a quality team around him that made him look better than he actually was.
Think the dogs lack that quality half to get them over the line and i think thats what will make the difference comes finals again.
Predict sharks top 3 next season. Battle with storm,knights,sea eagles, cowboys and dogs for the top spots
Have to agree on the halves call there is a reason why dessie had kasiano and pritchard ball playing they were talked up to much especially reynolds and now some want him in origin? we can surrender the origin series now if he is even looked at for the SOO 6.
Canberra will miss the finals. No-one can stop their pattern.
I'm iffy on the Roosters. I reckon they'll start good but then just chuck a Sharks 09-11 and just rely on SBW.
I'm also tipping Panthers to be big improvers (and when I say big improvers I mean finish 7th-8th) they've recruited well and Coote was getting better and better with each game at 5/8.
