| Right lads, last year was the best in the club's history. Let's go out, and err...try and win it again?
In this regard, the exit of the legends can almost be used to our advantage because it gives us a theme. #NEWBEGINNINGS
Leeds will no doubt be less fancied again due to the players that have left, which gives us once again the situation of trying to prove people wrong. Another good thing for us.
In the past teams haven't typically responded well to the zenith of a treble win. Saints responded by losing 5 grand finals on the trot. Bulls league form following 2003 was generally poor, they had the 13 game run to the title in 2005 after winning nothing in 2004 then sank into oblivion.

| It will be tough to go again mentally. We've got the WCC to aim for first which they'll want to win. Their's probably going to be the usual mid season slump I would imagine. Key thing again will probably be the Challenge Cup, the players will no doubt want to make it a hat trick of wins but going all the way and having the final in the middle of the Super 8's is so tough and the length of our cup run could decide our league/playoff fortunes.
Much like Cuthbertson last year, we have a new player in Falloon who we aren't sure how he'll go yet in England. How he goes in such a important position will be key especially considering we've acquired a good GROUP of props.

| With relish - knowing on their day the are capable of beating any side in SL.
It is a transitional year which should be really interesting - I am looking forward to see how the team cope without Sinfield and Peacock early season.
Bearing in mind what has happened to SB I expect to see Sinfield back before August.

| I'm looking forward to next season already. We will be there to be shot at by the rest of the comp. and i suspect we will have our ups and downs as we adapt to life without 2 greats, but i like the look and balance of the squad and see no reason for us not to be in the mix again at least.

| Patience is the key.
New combinations will be bedding in to vital roles, a still relatively new half back combination meshing with a new hooker and a changed forward pack with the addition of Galloway but the loss of Peacock, Leuluai and the injury absence of others.
Leeds have (from memory) the rest of last season's top 8 plus North Queensland in the first 9 weeks of the season. It's unlikely they'll enjoy the same roaring start they did to 2015 and it's important to resist the temptation to chop and change if things don't quite go as planned.

| I hope the players want to show there was more to this team than the retiring legends. I hope they want to build their own legacies.
I'm looking forward to seeing how the team handles it.
I hope the fans show patience, in particular with sutcliffe,

| 2015 was a watershed. We're now the undisputed number one team in SL. We have lots of fans and stacks of cash - nobody has done the treble with that sustainable combination. Wannabes with no ground and no trophies can kiss my .
We have a magnificent pack, fantastic backs and the best halves in the comp.
Everything will be fine.

| The key is to stick close to last season's principles of flowing attack and committed defence.
The players leaving are big losses. The biggest being Sinny. If Mags can organise then I actually think we will be ok.
Garbutt and cuthbo are settled. Mullaley is already at the club. That only leaves Falloon and Galloway to settle in.
Players like singo, Walters, keinhorst, sutty, lilley, handley, golding have all had game time through the season so know what it's all about. We also still have the best backs in the comp.
For me there is lots to look forward to next season, though I'm not predicting a double treble.

| Scoring try's near to the sticks will be important, our big strength has been the ability to go up in sixes not fours. I know it sound so obvious but is massively under rated.
I always found it baffling that fans of other clubs would highlight Sinfields goal kicking "he's just a goal kicker" (even if it was true which it isn't) like that isn't a massive part of a teams ability to win, and especially win big games.
Hardaker and Sutcliffe to be on extras until on of them is in the high 70% success rate.

| Next season will be very interesting for a number of reasons
How will we cope without our leaders?
It's certainly going to be tough for Sutty who has the task of filling Sinny's boots, but on a weekly basis, He will make mistakes and will maybe not be able to give quality and consistent performances each and every week, He is a very talented player but i hope that he gets the backing from the fans when things don't go well
It is a massive season for Wigan IMO as they surely can't keep rolling out the same lame excuses when they lose big important games and trot out the moral victory quotes and how they have been robbed again, next season is surely a put up or shut up campaign for them and their coach
Can the Wolves be as bad again?

| Warrington are a very difficult animal to predict this coming season. They showed at times last season they were capable, but then at others were medicore. Without knowing specifically what wrong behind the scenes they are difficult to call. If they get their combinations right in pre season and the attitude is right across the squad then they should be up in the top 4 challenging.
