As season 2017 draws closer, thereโs a lot to be thought about ahead of the new year. Whoโll cause trouble, which recruit will reign supreme and whoโll throw 2017โs first punch? Itโs all here in the first instalment of fifty fearless predictions for season 2017.
- Best Import: English import Dan Sarginson will thrive as the Titans left centre in 2017, proving English backs can handle the NRL.
- Second Season Syndrome: After a stellar debut season, Suliasi Vunivalu will have a much quieter 2017, being outscored by fellow Storm winger Josh Addo-Carr.
- Penthouse to the Outhouse: After being the only player to play every game for South Sydney in their premiership-winning 2014 season, prop Dave Tyrrell will play the entirety of the 2017 season in reserve grade.
- Shock Move: The Roosters will get their man, signing James Tedesco on a four-year deal, freeing up cap space for the Tigers to re-sign Mitch Moses, Luke Brooks and Aaron Woods.
