we look stronger this year but other teams do I will be happy if we finish above the sixth position, L am really looking foreward to the start of the season even if we start with no spectators anything is better than nothing

[Mucky1978]

If and it’s a big if we get back playing our home games at home and not at rhinos every week I’d say 3rd if not probably 7th.
So on the basis we do play at home.

Castleford
Warrington
Leeds
Hudds
Catalan
Salford
Hull KR
Wakefield
Leigh

Improved our squad this year and having a poor season last year will definitely give us a fire in our belly to make the play offs. If we can get back home and get our crowd back I don’t see why we can’t go all the way.

Hull FC 3rd

Much depends on luck and injuries (as always) and with Covid thrown into the mix, so I’m going to make a rough prediction:

Saints and Wigan will be the top two, but could be in either order. I’d go:
1. St Helens
2. Wigan

There are a group of teams who will all finish anywhere between 3rd and 8th: Cas, Warrington, Hull FC, Leeds, Catalans and Huddersfield. I’m going for:
3. Cas
4. Catalans
5. Warrington.
6. Leeds
7. Hull FC.
8. Huddersfield.
But I wouldn’t be surprised to see those teams in any order,

Then the three teams I don’t think will make the top 8: Wakefield, Hull KR and Salford. I’m thinking:
9. Salford
10. Wakefield
11. Hull KR.
But again, I wouldn’t be surprised to see them in any order.

Then Leigh.

Grand Final winners: Cas.
Challenge Cup: Huddersfield.
Man of Steel: Bateman.
Top try-scorer (league only) - Niall Evalds.

Are they re-introducing scrums this season? IMO this had a massively negative impact on our style of play.

With scrums, top 4. Without scrums, 6th or 7th.

It's going to be hard to predict there on about running it as, percentage system again.

It's going to be hard to predict there on about running it as, percentage system again.

As long as they decide what there going to do before the season starts and stick to it
Some clubs shamefully tried to use the percentage system to benefit themselves if they decide how the season is going to look and try there best to stick to that then at least the competion won't lose integrity

[Tigers1926]

RFL & integrity!!

[ParanoidAndroid]

I would say Saints or Wigan top 2; Cas, Leeds, Hull, Warrington, Catalan, Hudds 3rd to 8th in any order, dependent on form, injuries; Wakey, Salford, HKR 9th to 11th in any order but if Leigh can pick up wins against so called 'lower' teams, might avoid the wooden spoon.
Grand Final Winner:- Saints
CC Winner:- Cas
M.O.S.:- Bateman (would love a Cas player to win it just to see the sour grapes again)
Top try scorer:- an injury free Feki.
