I give you my Top 8 for 2011. This may change but right now, this is who they are. And yes I go for the Roosters....
You can find out the list after the jump...
1. St George Illawarra Dragons
You know they still have Illawarra in their name? You can't really go past the Dragon's here can you? They completely outplayed my boys from Bondi in the Grand Final, and that was after pretty much being flawless the whole season. Fuck Jamie Soward though.
2. Sydney Roosters
The Tricolours should have a better year in the preliminary rounds this year with the benefit of a full season together behind them. Also, the combination of Todd Carney, Mitchell Pearce and Braith would-you-hurry-up-and-fucking-resign-me Anasta will have benefited from the off season training together and should steer the Roosters round the park and the comp. I honestly think they will get better again this year.
3. Gold Coast Titans
Consistently consistent pretty much since they entered the NRL in 2007, the Titans came their closest last year until falling to the Roosters in the preliminary final. The loss of Mat Rogers will hurt and they will miss his experience but he did not make the team and Scotty Prince should steer them around successfully again this year.
4. Melbourne Storm
Look, they're still a class outfit I don't care what you say. Trying to forget the hilarious misfortunes of last year, the Victorian side will be wanting to prove themselves to the rest of the comp and their fans that they can be a force come September. Craig Bellamy will also have to prove that he can coach a side to success without the backing of an extra 3 mil on the park.
5. South Sydney Rabbitohs
With the personnel this fucking club has and the questionable aquisition of Greg Inglis, they should make the 8, you would think, and its getting harder to find unflattering pictures of team captains. That's all I have to say about Russell Crowe's bunch of big bunch of great names who have done nothing.
6. Manly Seas Eagles
Fuck Manly. But they will be there.
7. Wests Tigers
The Tigers will always be there when Benji's playing his best. They also fell to the Roosters last year but let's be honest, that was just bad luck. But it was one of the best final's games ever played and I went out and got well and fucking drunk that night.
8. Newcastle Knights
The Knights have had some shit luck in the last couple of season's but with Matty Johns joining the coaching staff for the year I wouldn't be surprised if they scrape into the 8 and then make a proper go at it. Ask Cooper Cronk how much Johns helped him and you better believe he'll help the Knights young halves to greater heights this season.
