In what area do u think they come up short ???...

They won't have enough heat winners, the decent teams all have 2 good heat leaders Wolves have 1. 4th is the absolute best we can hope for barring major improvement from Becker/Duggo and Cook and Flint

Mmm being a bit sarcastic there, the middle order is one of the strongest and the best R/S by a long way. However Becker needs to step up and Rory needs to hit the ground running, if that happens we should easily make the playoffs.

Wolves haven’t got a prayer of top 4 for me as things stand. They’re going to have to strengthen up. Currently I also have them bottom. 

Not so sure, the one thing they have is strength in depth, the Ipswich top 2 is formidable but the rest of the team is the weakest by far, which approach is best remains to be seen.

A lot depends on Zach and Rory imo. Table could be close all the way down with all teams taking points off each other. 

Wolves team looks good on its own, but when you start comparing to others, doesn't seem as strong to me. But you never know!

1 Sheffield

2 Ipswich

3 BV

4 Wolves

5 KL

6 Pb

7 Leicester

I have placed Peterborough and Leicester at the bottom because of the doubts around Nicki P and NKI and Leicester’s potential loss of home track advantage with Max and Justin coming in. KL have a balanced look about them, although there is a question mark over KK who can be decent or awful. The above bottom four all have question marks of one kind or another so it could come as no surprise should teams swap places so to speak. The top three are pretty nailed on, and I cannot see Sheffield losing many throughout the season, and defeating Ipswich in the final.

Can’t wait to see how Zach adapts to Monmore, could be a real trump card if he takes to it quick.

Max is mustard at Leicester.

Scoring enough points to win all home meetings,,,, not scoring enough points to win away meetings,,, and not scoring enough points at home enough times to pick up valuable bonus points 

Not sure I agree, sometimes strength in depth is better than a couple of big hitters
