Hardaker can kick goals, maybe not to Sinfields % accuracy, but I think will do a decent job of it.

He must be better than what we have got.

My intrigue is how well catalans dragons will fare.
Some key players departing such as Dureau, Henderson and Whitehead, however, with some big name replacements in Stewart, Taylor, Horo, and Aiton with Myler as an add on.
Will no doubt need time to knit together, but if they play to their full potential, could be a strong contender.
Thoughts?

The key question with Cats is home form v away form (tad like ourselves. If cats can win more away games! The key man/talent for me is Todd Carney and keeping him fit and healthy throughout the season.

I think Leeds will be fine if not favourites again.

They are not afraid to go out and sign players and seem to be quite ready to bring in experienced players alongside promoting some younger players. They have had the balance right for several seasons now. Unlike us.
