Last season: 10th

Captain: Trent I'Anson

Gains: Jordan and Karl Schilg, Adam I'Anson and Justin Everitt (Brocklesby)

Losses: Nil

Leading run-scorer last season: Trent I'Anson (483)

Leading wicket-taker last season: Trent I'Anson (12)

Prospects: The newly-merged Saints should improve significantly with Brocklesby coming on board. While finals look a longshot, Trent I'Anson will have more options at his disposal and should grab three or four wins.

Prediction: 7 to 10

Last season: 2nd

Captain: Alex McMaster

Gains: Matt Robertson, Michael Oates, Jacob Read, Andrew Lewis, Jake Miller

Losses: Nathan Morton (Tumbarumba)

Leading run-scorer last season: Nick Morris (403)

Leading wicket-taker last season: Damian Wardius (22)

Prospects: May take some time to fire after a limited pre-season but still possess plenty of firepower with the bat and will be thereabouts. Jake Miller could be a real find after spending time with North Albury.

Prediction: 1 to 3

Last season: 4th

Captain: Tom Simmons

Gains: Keiran McCarthy (Tumbarumba)

Losses: Mitch Lauritzen (knee)

Leading run-scorer last season: Tom Simmons (666)

Leading wicket-taker last season: Tom Simmons (25)

Prospects: Walla has added a sharp bowler in Keiran McCarthy to its stocks and don't rule out several more handy inclusions after the Christmas break. The Hoppers have been sharp improvers in recent years and look top-four material.

Prediction: 4 to 6

Last season: 6th

Captain: Vince Chaffey

Gains: Daniel Rooke (East Albury), Jackson Lezius (Walla)

Losses: Steve Brand and Brendan Sheather (retired)

Leading run-scorer last season: Steve Brand (561)

Leading wicket-taker last season: Dai Jenkins (14)

Prospects: Losses don't come any bigger than Steve Brand with the star batsman amassing 550-plus runs last season. The Lions will be hoping for a lift across the board with skipper Vince Chaffey sure to be prominent.

Prediction: 7 to 10

Last season: 9th

Captain: Greg Schuller

Gains: Daniel Hore-Smith

Losses: Nil

Leading run-scorer last season: Braeden Pantling (295)

Leading wicket-taker last season: Braeden Pantling (22)

Prospects: If Henty can put its full side together on the field, the Swampies will be dangerous. It won't happen on Saturday though with the line-up decimated by unavailability. Daniel Hore-Smith is back from a break and Shannon Terlich is set to play following shoulder surgery. Chris Manns, Grant Gardiner and Mark White have all committed for 2019-20.

Prediction: 4 to 6

Last season: 7th

A grade captain: Chayte Burkinshaw

Gains: Blake Ryan and Sam Johnson (Wagga)

Losses: Nil

Leading run-scorer last season: Clint Renner (355)

Leading wicket-taker last season: James Mitchell (18)

Prospects: The Demons have topped up last year's side by recruiting all-rounders Blake Ryan and Sam Johnson. Unknown quantity. Narrowly missed fielding a B grade side.

Prediction: 7 to 10

Last season: 1st

Captain: Bryce Swift

Coach: Brad I'Anson

Gains: Kyle Porta (New City)

Losses: Mitch Thomas (knee), Chris Kreutzberger (retired)

Leading run-scorer last season: Mark Kreutzberger (457)

Leading wicket-taker last season: Nathan I'Anson (19)

Prospects: The perennial heavyweight will be difficult to beat again. Chris Kreutzberger's retirement is a blow but the Pigeons will no doubt be trying to change his mind in coming weeks. Mitch Thomas will miss the season after injuring his knee playing football for North Albury. Can never be written off.

Prediction: 1 to 3

Last season: 8th

Captain: Todd Hannam

Gains: Mitch Fennessy

Losses: Ned Mazzochi (Melbourne)

Leading run-scorer last season: Todd Hannam (550)

Leading wicket-taker last season: Todd Hannam (19)

Prospects: Like Henty, TRYC has some genuine top-end talent but player availability will determine how far they progress. Hannam, Ryan Kirkwood, Oscar Willis and Jack Driscoll will be important contributors.

Prediction: 7 to 10

Last season: 5th

Captain: Nick Perryman

Gains: Nil

Losses: Luke Richardson (Kooringal Colts)

Leading run-scorer last season: Nick Perryman (404)

Leading wicket-taker last season: Ed Perryman (16)

Prospects: Osborne has been dealt a massive blow with Luke Richardson returning to Wagga but the club is well equipped to cover with its wealth of talent.

Prediction: 4 to 6

Last season: 3rd

A grade captain: Hamish Mackinlay

Gains: Jamie McCarthy (Jingellic), Jim Grills

Losses: Will Heriot (overseas), Cooper Walsh (overseas), Andrew Mackinlay (Lavington)

Leading run-scorer last season: Hamish Mackinlay (395)

Leading wicket-taker last season: Andrew Mackinlay (23)

Prospects: The Brookers could be slow out of the blocks due to player unavailability. Holbrook has lost some talent but the arrival of Jamie McCarthy and Jim Grills will keep it around the mark.

Prediction: 1 to 3
