10: Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks
The streak of finishing eighth is finished for the Sharks. With no Shaun Johnson for the majority of the season, expect the Sharks to be competitive but fall short of playing finals football. There’s major question marks over Matt Moylan and Chad Townsend this season, along with Josh Dugan and Andrew Fifita. They do have several good young players in their top 17, but it won’t be enough, as they’ll need to fix their defence coming into this season.
