Who will get the spoon?

Post by greeneyed »

OK.... there is a thread on who will win. And all the Sydney critics tip the RAIDERS to win the spoon....

So who do we really think? No particular order implied .... :)

I went for the sharks, I think they are a darkhorse for the spoon. Might put $10 on them for the spoon if the odds are tempting enough :D

What?

Sharks will be in or around the 8, Souths failure to lure anyone of great importance to the club will see them finish with the spoon again

I think we will be competing with sharks and westies to make the 8. I'm keen to see westies play as they showed massive improvement through 2004, over previous years. I just can't go past souths for the spoon, they are such an awful team. I reckon we could replace their backline with everyone on this forum and still do better.

i'd love to be different and not pick Souths - but they are an ordinary football side. Shaun McRae will be great, i think, but i don't think at this stage that he'll be enough to lift them off the bottom. Wests Tigers will also struggle - they've lost some key players and still lack a good long kicking game. the Warriors IMO will be near the bottom, too. completely undisciplined, although they are very talented, and they'll win the odd great game. i think Manly will be most improved, with Witt and Monaghan in the halves, and a couple of very strong additions to their forwards in BK and Kite.

i don't understand the scepticism regarding the Sharks. with Kimmorley at the helm, Sullivan, plus a bunch of other very decent players, they should go well - pushing for a top 8 spot. i am worried about the depth in their backline, though.

One thing is for sure without Souths for me I would have a hard time answering the question.

While we still have around 3 or 4 stand out teams the rest can do anything. Hooray for the salary cap

You never know either... they have lost a lot of experience and Benji is an over-rated hack.

I believe it will be the Bunnies, a new coach isn't going to turn them around in one season - though I have seen mirricals happen!

He failed at St Helens and got the axe and It took him a good few seasons to get some good talent coming through at Hull.

In a perfect world, the roosters would be getting the spoon with the only four points they have being from byes.

I've never seen a mirrical happen :lol: .

Can't go past the Bunnies in 05!!!! Although they did play with a bit more heart than the Raiders at times in 2004.

My Hope would be for the Roosters to get the spoon... My Realistic Hope would be for the Tigpies to claim the honours!
