If the Warriors have all our awesome playmakers back like to full fitness, like Jones, Hohaia and Marsh with the addition of a proper goal kick along with our raging foward pack, we should be looking pretty good and IMO hard to stop especially considering our form at the end of last year.

As for the Broncos....hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Look I will be realistic and i will say the TIGERS!!!

The Tigers are in a similar situation to penrith last season, we have a very good side with alot of youth and some very experienced campaigners, and i will be prepared to take anyones money who feels the tigers won't make the 8....

are you forgetting broncos were leading the comp after 17 rounds this year. we just need to play well after the origin period, and with wayne bennett not coaching qld next season, i think we will be right.
And blewy im prepared to take your money and say tigers wont make the 8!

Why is that?

If you look at our squad for next year, we will be struggling to give players games, in that I mean we have a so much depth and some players will be very unlucky to miss out as they had played well all year. And Scott Hill back makes Matt Geyer and Matt Orford a stronger attacking trio and probably just as good as anybody in the NRL.

Im backing the Eels (naturally ) , however I dont think the Tigers should be taken to lightly.

The Broncos are getting old & this showed last year as they suffered injuries & fatigue towards September.

In general the Broncos are no older than any other club , howeve reven the most one eyed Brisbane supporter would be clearly able to see that the players who have made them so strong over the last few years , namely Tallis , Lockyer are getting older & the now retired Ben Ikin & Allan Langer were major player when the Broncos were at their best.

As for a these "Youngsters" , I consider a few of them , namely De Vere , to be hugely over-rated.

I always believe Shaun Berrigan is over-rated.
