It is just the opinion of 2 randoms.
The spoon will be fiercely contested this season. I believe there are a lot of weak teams out there, especially once the rep season and injuries set in.
I agree with an earlier post regarding the Steelers. Could be a smokey.Born and bred in the eastern suburbs.

Originally posted by The General View PostIn last Thursday's special "2012 Predictions" edition of Rugby League Week a couple of nuffies predict we will get the spoon:
And the wooden spoon goes to... Sydney Roosters. The Chooks have lost Nate Myles, Jason Ryles and Dally M winner Todd Carney and gained.... Daniel Mortimer. And despite being one of the best coaches around, sooner or later players seem to stop listening to Brian Smith. Meanwhile, Roosters suits are talking to Sonny Bill Williams. That means they'll be looking to free up money. Blokes on one-year deals know what's up. And Braith Anasta is not happy about it (MATT CLEARY)
WOODEN SPOONERS?
The ROOSTERS landed with a thud in 2011 after those dizzying heights the year prior, and you can expect the pain to continue in Bondi. Uninspiring signings, some aging players in key positions and an unproven forward pack all point to a tough year.

I can't see how people on here are shocked by these tips. On most books across the country the Roosters are paying $34 to win the premiership - there are only a couple of teams behind them in the odds.
Personally I don't think there is a clear favourite for the spoon based on the playing roster. Most teams that get the spoon get it because of player unrest and in-fighting, injuries and loss of confidence.
Most people on here (myself included) rate the Roosters chances of making the 8 due to the quality of the young players coming through. People that don't follow the club as closely as its own supporters, would not be aware of a lot of this quality, so tipping them for the spoon would be quite reasonable.
