Top 4/Relegation predictions

[TRF_Olyy]

Idea shamelessly stolen from "Rugby Tonight" on BT Sport
We're now a round into the season, so have the vaguest of ideas of what teams look like, so I think we should have a prediction "competition".
So:

• Predict your top 4 (in order)
• Predict who will get relegated

The prize is: Absolutely nothing.

No editing your post further down the line!


For me:

1. Northampton Saints
2. Leicester Tigers
3. Saracens
4. Bath
5. ...
6. ...
7. ...
8. ...
9. ...
10. ...
11. ...
12. Newcastle Falcons

Go go go!

 

[Tony Manx]

1. Saracens
2. Leicester
3. Northampton Saints
4. Wasps
7. ...
8. ...
9. ...
10. ...
11. ...
12. ...
13. ...
14. Irish

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

1. Leicester
2. Saracens
3. Harlequins
4. Northampton



12. Newcastle

 

[BRSTLDRGN]

1. Sarries
2. Tigers
3. Northampton.
4. Wasps

12. Newcastle

With us to get promotion, naturally

 

[LittleGuy]

1. Leicester
2. Northampton
3. Saracens
4. Wasps

12. Irish

 

[ratsapprentice]

1. Saracens
2. Northampton
3. Leicester
4. Bath

12. Newcastle

At this point Sarries and Saints feel considerably stronger than last season and Leicester, well... don't.
I'm going purely on feeling rather than over-thinking this.

 

[welshglory]

1.Saracens
2.Northampton
3.Leicester
4.Harlequins

12.Irish

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Well I didn't get that close...

welshglory spot on with the top 4!

 

[04perryo]

[LittleGuy]

Yeah Wasps was a dreadful 4th pick in hindsight.

 

[willutalk]

1)Saracens
2)Leicester
3)Bath
4)Northampton

12)Newcastle

 

[ratsapprentice]

A bit late there!

 

[BRSTLDRGN]

A bit late there!

And still wrong

Worst. Prediction. Ever *in Comic Book Guy style*

 

[LittleGuy]

Is he doing them for next season? A bit early with not all player moves finalized, but those wouldn't be that bad of selections for next year.

 

[Geordie]

So will we or LW be the most likely relegated?

 

[ratsapprentice]

This was last season's...

But it's hard to tell until we know who LW have signed.

 

[Geordie]

Well they have started with Barkley

 

[ratsapprentice]

Yeah... but they have several key players who were on loan to them from premiership clubs that they will need to replace.

 

[Geordie]

Indeed, a figure of 14-15 has been put about...do they really need that many?

On the other hand, whilst we havent signed many huge names....i think some of our signings have been very clever / shrewd.
Improving areas where we struggled...ie We have had a massive problem with ball carrying this season. Really making yards in heavy traffic. However that has been addresses with Taulava, and the Tuilagis coming in. They may be aging, etc but they could be very good signings if managed properly.

 

[TheSaffycen]

Right lets get this back up
1.Tigers
