Let's be realistic, we've got a new coach which IMO can only be a good thing as we've not been coached for the last two seasons. Brown will bring new ideas which with freshen the players up a little but as with any coach and new team, it sometimes just doesn't work.
The signing of willie Manu will give us extra in attack, we've no had a attacking forward since Freddie left us, IMO Manu will make us stronger.
I'm not sure on the other two new signings. Turner seems like a he will be a work in progress and obviously Walmsley has never played at this level.
I expect at top three finish in the super league and the semi final of the CC if we have a good draw.
The starting 17 is as good as anyone's on paper but I do think we lach depth. We seem to struggle against the likes of Warrington and Wigan upfront as Perry isn't good enough and Laffranchi isn't your out and prop and can sometimes be bullied.
The backs could be a problem, we know we got big problems in the halves but I also have a worry with our centres. Jones is still a young lad, I expect him to find it much harder this year and Turner is a unknown really, he looks very good some weeks and very poor the next.
Is be happy with a good cup run, top three and good play off run. I'll be happy if we play good entertaining structured rugby and play competitive.
