Easts - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 Sure they had a better squad than most 15th placed teams in recent history - but you are what your record says you are. pic.twitter.com/5DyORlwHoj
Parramatta - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 Copped medicine to finish as also-rans... no wonder team but if their fans show up to ANZ they'll be fun to watch. pic.twitter.com/CrsRgoZHJC
Manly - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 Old guard practically gone (a painful but understandably slow burn post success). Jumping from 13th to Finals isn't easy pic.twitter.com/FykEk70oeb
South Sydney - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 Got overmatched on a regular basis even with Sam back on board. Top heavy roster needs refreshed approach to rise pic.twitter.com/k8nXmJOuuj
Dragons - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 Just a hard team to watch. The Widdop/Marshall combo was as good it was allowed to be by a rigid boring structure. pic.twitter.com/bvdwZ7yZew
Warriors - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 10-14 record seemed spot on. A very ordinary team under McFadden so it might be a case of addition by subtraction. pic.twitter.com/YhG8Qh4MSL
Wests Tigers - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 How they were 80mins from a playoff spot in the final round remains one of life's great mysteries... seriously!?! pic.twitter.com/dxHoMa8fv5
Gold Coast - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 Lost a bunch of depth but is now a team with some serious difference makers (Hayne is worth every penny). Fans 😁 pic.twitter.com/iUGv1ILX75
Canterbury - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 Hard to tell if they're going to get better or worse... hey not all analysis is cutting edge. Kasiano MVP by a mile pic.twitter.com/EZa7sa7cMK
Penrith - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 So much to like about them on a number of fronts; if Rein can adapt to feeding their playmakers they'll be even better pic.twitter.com/uDhLF41ON7
Brisbane - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 Seemed out to prove they didn't lose GF but we're a spent force by #Origin - Bennett has job ahead but talent abounds pic.twitter.com/y5VfXwrpGy
Nth Qld - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 Were good enough to go back to back but didn't. Green had JT plugged into the charger the moment he got back from UK. pic.twitter.com/OWqCX6CMtK
Canberra - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 Heavy expectations are back in the capital for first time since Super League year... team has the parts to meet them. pic.twitter.com/hUKdTykxte
Melbourne - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 Remain in contention with Smith/Cronk in lineup but a title only comes with a fit Slater. #7 misses Proctor most. pic.twitter.com/jff0GFB7pp
But please don't ask me to pick a 2017 Premier yet... heck it's only Day 1!Cronulla - #NRL 2017— The NRL Tweet (@NRLTweet) December 31, 2016
🗣 All those easy wins won't be so easy next year. Had gas in the tank come Sept... and how do you not over-celebrate? pic.twitter.com/DYDXpfOWSW
