Fearless Predictions for 2013

Discussion in 'The Cesspit: Rugby League Discussion' started by Ged, Jan 24, 2013.

    We're not that far away from footy now after a long boring cricket season.
    Before views get skewed by trial form which generally means squat, what are everyone's predictions for the season ahead?
     
  2. Ged GEC King

    I reckon that Newcastle and Brisbane will be 1st and 2nd at the halfway point of the season. Bennett has a history of starting seasons very well and Brisbane are probably the most athletic side in the comp meaning that they are more likely to win early in the season when teams don't have combinations built up.
     
  3. Julian BJ Taylor

    Laurie Daley will pick the best nsw side in years. (the 17 picked on paper)
     
  4. Farhat AM Farhat

    Cribb's said that before, I'm certain.
     
  5. Lukic L Popovic

    NSW will win origin.
     
  6. Flash JP Thornton

    Roosters undefeated
     
  7. Magic AJ Parker

    Warriors are due for their good season.
     
  8. Harry Sack SB Slippy

    Prince to find a new lease on life
     
  9. Flack SA Flack

    Qld to win origin 2-1
    Penrith to avoid the spoon, but only just, being 14th or 15th.
    Sharks to barely make the 8, if at all.
    Parramatta to still be shithouse.
    Dragons to miss the 8.
     
  10. SM MD Dorn

    Penrith will get shut out back to back weeks
    Gould will sack Cleary
    Campese will miss more games than he will play
    An origin prop will get injured, SOS Civo calls to ensue
    Sezer will be a star
    Barba will be shit
    Cows will finish top 4
     
  11. Julian BJ Taylor

    With leuluai in the halves, won't happen.
     
  12. morgieb MC Burridge

    Souths for the comp :ph34r:
     
  13. Cribbage RG Cribb

    He's a fair bit better than he used t be, and Shaun Johnson has the power to create and destroy worlds. I don't think it'll be a huge issue for them, especially with Mateo being so creative on the fringes as well. All Maloney was really doing when he was in good form was backing up well and getting his kicking game right; Leuluai doesn't need to do much more than that.

    He can't even do that. He's fuckinh hopeless unless he plays hooker.
     
  15. morgieb MC Burridge

    Isn't that only Hughesy?
     
  16. Harry Sack SB Slippy

    I'll add to this. Prince will be talked up for Origin.
     
  17. Ged GEC King

    Nth Qld will start slowly, get destabilised by Thurston leaving, then come home with a wet sail, finish in 6th and go no further than the 2nd week of the finals.
     
  18. Julian BJ Taylor

    Souths won't make the 8
     
  19. Jimmy J Read

    reynolds to start at 7 for nsw.
     
  20. Magic AJ Parker

    So much of their season rests on Inglis. If he doesn't play at least 80% of the games they're just another Broncos/Dragonsesque squad. Solid but lack class in the spine.

    With Inglis there though I reckon they'll make the 8.
