2023 is shaping up as one of the most exciting in recent memory. A host of huge name recruits shifting clubs has ensured a more open competition than ever.

Every side enters the new season with a series of positives and weaknesses. Today we're going to focus in on those weaknesses.

It goes without saying that this was far easier with some clubs than others. That said, here is every team's weakness as we prepare for Round 1, 2023:

7. Wests Tigers

The backline

The Wests Tigers, as a club, have worked incredibly hard to ensure a much different side takes the park in 2023. A far superior side at that.

They've absolutely bailed the forward pack with the additions of names like Klemmer, Papali'i, Bateman, Koroisau and potentially Brown.

The backline though ... I just can't see where the points come from. Tigers fans better hope that David Nofoaluma brings his Storm form back with him.
