What are your expectations for the year?

Post by ancientnloyal »

At the very least I would expect us to get to a Final.

If we can't improve our attack it will probably be middle eighths. I have never felt so depressed pre season.

Probably could of done with a choice of "avoid middle 8's" they are all quite good then avoid relegation is the only one thats that bad and thats probably too far
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure

Well I voted avoid relegation because the other options were far too optimistic based on past performances (not because I think we will be in a relegation fight) and the same dross emanating from the club as in the recent past (player x ripping it up in training etc, it's deja vu).

Yeah i think we will be flirting with the Middle 8's but if we end up in the 8's i expect us to do a leeds/wire and dominate, i dont think we are in any danger of the million pound game, but i also dont think we are in any danger of breaking the top 4

I expect our luck with injuries to change and that we'll achieve a top 3 place in the table and make the grand final.

Will not make top 4. Squad is a lot weaker than last season as a whole. People are putting too much faith in us not getting injuries.

Wane will be gone before the Super 8's is my prediction

I agree that Wane will be gone by Easter, but that leaves plenty of time for a good coach, especially one with NRL experience, to win something. Another advantage of a top coach coming in will be that they will be able to replace the conditioning and medical staff who can never get nor keep anyone fit.

The only alternative scenario I can think of is that Sam fires and we fulfil our potential. In which case we will win something.
