Without knowing the final make up impossible to say.
What we can say is from what we already have ....
We have no backrowers that run over 100 metres a game
We have no Starting Front rower that dominates the advantage like like Kappow
Our bench can do with some punch
Another dominating forward leader would be nice .

We have no backrowers that run over 100 metres a game - Jake? Jack Gosiewski looks the goods and then potentially Thompson.
We have no Starting Front rower that dominates the advantage like like Kappow - What team has 2 blue chip front rowers?
Our bench can do with some punch - AFB and Perrett will hopefully go to another level in 2018 (they were pretty good this year).
Another dominating forward leader would be nice - Maybe Thompson if he signs?

You are correct in your later post Bozo, we currently come up short.
Jackson, Klemmer, Campbell-Gillard are the players we need, though Thompson would give us some starch.
Chuck Shannon Boyd in too.
 
Top 3 forwards group in the NRL (I'll assume Thompson is happening):

08. Darcy Lussick
09. Apisai Koroisou
10. Marty Taupau
11. Joel Thompson
12. Curtis Sironen
13. Jake Trbojevic

14. Utility
15. Addin Fonua-Blake
16. Lloyd Perrett
17. Frank Winterstein

West Tigers 2005

Laffranchi
Farah
Skandalis
Galea
O'Neill
Halatau

We've got that covered, mark us down for a premiership
Do you want to know what's not funny ?
That 2005 Tigers pack won the grand Final and our pack got knocked out first round of the semis .

Sounds similar to the 1999 Brisbane pack that got knocked out in the 1st week of the finals and won the comp in 2000

6 grand finals in 46 years with a big pack is a poor return @BOZO
 
Its long been my opinion the dirtiest team wins the comp every year.

I can barely think of year that hasnt been the case. Maybe that Tigers team is an exception.
