The Virtual Terrace • Championship Predictions.

Toronto - The strongest set up by far but vulnerable at play off time.
Toulouse - Will be stronger for the experience of last year and could easily go one better
Fax - Well used to playing consistently at a decent level but very much dependent on their playmakers staying fit.
Widnes - A bit of an unknown quantity - they looked awful in the playoffs last year - will they steady the ship or go into freefall?
Bradford - Seem to have plenty of depth but a conservative gameplan and a lack of experience in maintaining a high intensity means 5th is our best bet this year.
Fev - Could easily get into the top 5 - a lot depends on how quickly the new lads gel with all the Leeds lot and the PNG guys. The coach is an unknown.
Batley - A really tough pack of forwards who'll propel them onto the fringes of the 5.
Leigh - Depends on Saints dual reg filling in the gaps but will have some good days.
Sheffield - Recruited well - will be better than last year.
York - Could finish higher if they stay injury free.
Dewsbury - Don't think they're doing dual reg are they? Greenwood will make them very hard to beat.
Barrow - Should be clear of the drop easily.
Swinton & Rochdale battling it out at the bottom.
