Surely there's somebody in their squad that's a better option than Kurt Mann at 5/8.

I know it's likely that a few teams out of Newcastle, Gold Coast, Wests Tigers, Canterbury, North Queensland and St George-Illawarra are likely to finish in the top 8, because every season has its surprise packets...but I'm still not quite sure how...

This team sucks. Their best player (Ponga) is a twat and he's surrounded by chokers.
