who would you see the top 5 ending up being?
toronto - widnes - toulouse - halifax

but who else?

you would expect us to be beating the likes of rochdale and swinton

barrow, dewsbury, sheffield, york and batley we should be at least competitive with

which just leads us with fev and leigh. and who knows how strong they are going to be, especially leigh, who dont know who is going to playing for them next season

so that last top 5 spot does seem up for grabs

McNally
Hitchcox
Webster
Gibson
Ryan
Keyes
Chisholm
Crossley
Wildie
Green
Garside
Minchella
Wood

Peltier
Magrin
Flanagan/Lilley- probably rotate
Farrell

Well as I said previously, we managed to pick up 6 wins with no team the last time we were in the Championship.

This time round, we've a good, solid team and a lot of depth across the squad without the need to rely on a team full of loan players

I don't expect us to walk the league, but I would say we have a good shot of making top 5

There are some good teams being posted in this thread. I like the look of the squad for this season.

It is pleasing that for the first time in years we have a winning team that we have managed to keep together (great to have continuity) and add to with a few key signings that definitely improve the group.

The development in the younger lads who will be a year older, will have another season and full pre-season under their belt will I’m sure be evident.

I actually think that coming 2nd last year will actually be seen as a positive.

Many of the team won't have played in any type of play-off rugby before and the pressure of the situation will help with the experience within the group.

Certainly 2019 will be a tougher competition for us week on week as we're unlikely to have massive blow-outs like we had this year. But again, I think that's a good thing for the team too as this year we got complacent at times when playing teams who really weren't near us in terms of skill and ability

This has already been touched on and I massively agree not just on the field but there was a feeling of connecting with the fanbase again. To have 6k all paying through the turnstiles was amazing. People who haven't been for years went enjoyed and talk of them getting tickets for this year. It definitely seemed to help the club more without doubt
