Well then here is my guess:

1) Saracens
2) Bath
3) Wasps
4) Tigers
5) Saints
6) Exeter
7) Quins
8) Sale
9) Irish
10) Glous
11) Falcons
12) Worcester

Top Try Scorer - Frank Halai
Top points scorer - George Ford

FYI Not sure how Tigers will do but i can't put them outside top 4 :(
 
I actually hope we can push above that this season Tigs. We have made some further good signings to areas of weakness last season.

Im hoping to be between 8-10 this season.
 
Doubt Ford will be top points scorer - will miss too many games with England. You're looking for a very steady boot who plays with a dominant team, won't be displaced and won't be called up...

... come on down Stephen Myler.

Sorry Tigs, I know you can't put your Tigers outside of the top 4, a fan has always gotta back their team!

But I would tweak your prediction slightly.

1) Saracens
2) Bath
3) Wasps
4) Exeter
5) Saints
6) Tigers
7) Sale
8) Quins
9) Gloucester
10) Irish
11) Falcons
12) Worcester

Saracens and Bath just seem to have that squad depth and set-up one step further on than other clubs.
Agree Halai could easily be Top Try Scorer, especially if Wasps stick to their attacking style.
Exeter were close last year, this year they have made some good signings and expect more from their young potential stars (Slade/Hill...) too.
I think it will be a year of Saints vs Tigers regardless of where they are sitting in the table.
And for the bottom half, I think Sale and Gloucester will have more consistency. But the new centre partnership at Quins could have an important say in this too.

I dunno, I think he's going to be on a time share with Hanraha-hanrahan. Unless Mallinder decides to use him like he used Geraghty/Lamb (i.e. thrown on in the last 20 minutes when losing as a total wildcard). I can't see Saints splashing out over 150k a year on a benchwarmer unless it's Alex Corbisiero.
 
As a Quins fan I'm obviously biased....but i think we have strengthened the best out of all the AP teams. Also given the farce of the WC I could see us contributing fewer players than previously.

1)Bath
2)Saracens
3)Saints
4)Exeter
5)Quins
6)Wasps
7)Leicester
8)Sale
9)Gloucester
10)Irish
11)Falcons
12)Worcester

Although from 3 down to 7 it's a lottery.
 
Honestly don't know how will do but will chuck it around and a backline of
9)Mackibbin/Steele
10)Geraghty/Noakes
11)Maitland
12)Mulchrone
13)Tiks
14)Lewington
15)Fenby

with Fowlie looks tasty. Anyway I'm going for a Bath vs Exeter final
 
Bath and Sarries will be in the top 4. Saints will be in the top 6.
Falcons and Wuss in the bottom 4. Irish in the bottom 6.

The rest, I can't even begin to put into any kind of order.
