07/01/2009		`Dream job` winner off to dream start
FOR most people, the first day on the job involves finding a desk and getting the directions to the loo

Last year’s grand finalists Parramatta (12.01 per cent - 2691 votes) lead the way as the most likely premiers, with Canterbury-Bankstown (11.78% - 2640 votes), Melbourne Storm (11.41 per cent - 2557 vote), St George Illawarra (10.1 per cent - 2262 votes) and Brisbane Broncos (9.8 per cent - 2196 votes) snapping at their heels.

In a surprise to many pundits, the Broncos are favoured by many foxsports.com.au users to be the last team standing in October.

Fox Sports league expert Greg Alexander believes Penrith have assembled their best squad since they won the premiership in 2003. However, foxsports.com.au users have made it clear they don’t share Brandy’s enthusiasm when it comes to the Panthers (3.27 per cent - 733 votes).

The one thing foxsports.com.au users and Alexander do agree on is their shared opinion that the Warriors (2.38 per cent – 535 votes) will be nowhere to be seen come finals time.

Newcastle Knights (2.37 per cent – 531 votes) and Canberra (2.47 per cent – 555 votes) are also given little hope by both parties to cause a ripple in the NRL waters.

There is only one thing left to say less than 12 hours away from season kick off - BRING ON THE FOOTY.
