The only twist I could see happening still is if maybe Gale decides to go elsewhere and the club lets him; or we get a serious bout of homesickness with one of the NRL players.
Other than that we are looking set as a squad for next year. It's not the ideal situation without another big body prop, but I do think we should be better as a team, and then if we can do better with injuries our season should look much improved.
We do have a nice mix of youth and experience now, we have come a long way from the dark years and it seems impossible that we would be in any danger of finishing towards the bottom this year.
Whether we have quite enough to take the title... injuries will play their part and a bit of luck. We shouldn't be without hope though.
