I think my side should be improved on last year. My best 22 is certainly more mature and I should have 26-30 players being picked week in week out. This should ensure I stay out of the bottom 4 but I'd still need a fair bit of luck to make the top 8 I would of thought. I still believe I am building a squad that will be able to challenge for top 4 by 2015.

The following players are not in my first 2 sides.
