2024 Prediction Thread

[84 Baby]

Or he like 90% of players each week was playing a bit busted anyway and was a ticking time bomb just getting out of bed each morning

 

[Stagger eel]

He got the injury at training.

well he probably shouldn't have trained with us...ffs.

 

[Gazzamatta]

He got the injury at training.

Of cause he did!

Top 8 for mine

Manly are the bolter with Brooks going there i think he will raise his game to another level with a fresh start and it make the tigers fans feel more sick watching him play finals while they flounder in the bottom half for another year.

I can't leave Melbourne out of the top 4 until they completely drop off the cliff. You keep waiting for it to happen but until it does i just have to have them in there they are too professional for 3/4 of the competition.

Brisbane will have a bit of GF hangover for mine too good to miss out but will finish bottom half.

Dolphins will make the finals & i expect North Qld to win enough games at Home to scrape into the 8.

1 - Penrith
2 - Roosters
3 - Storm
4 - Manly
5 - Parramatta
6 - Brisbane
7 - North Qld
8 - Dolphins

 

[T.S Quint]

I don't know why, but I'm thinking Penrith won't win the minor premiership again this year.

It might just be hope more than anything, and I've got no reasoning to back up my thinking.

you don't rate the Titan's line up ?

I'd have them over the Dolphins

 

[Avenger]

Today one of the guys that works with me bet me a lunch of my choice that we will not make the 8. Seeing he is a Roosters supporter it made me hate them that little bit more.

Bayti do a really nice banquet for 2 for $300.

I won’t go too hard. I’m happy with Bar Reggio in Crown St.

Best Italian restaurant in Sydney and Uncle Nick goes there a lot as well haha.

Only sad thing is the family that own it are bloody Penrith fans.

 

[the phantom menace]

Where do you think he'll make you take him though...?

Teams that finished below us in 2023 that should do better/make the top 8 in 2024:
Sea Eagles
Dolphins
Titans

Teams that finished in the top 8 that should decline enough to miss the top 8 in 2024:
Raiders

Teams that finished above us and not in the top 8 in 2023, that should also finish above us in 2024:
Souths

Given establishing consistency hasn't been our strong point, beyond I just can't see us making the finals this year, tbh.

I think Bennett has better defensive players in his squad to get them in there.

Des has a bit of work to do with the cattle he has on the defensive side of things. I think the Titans would be a big shout next year once Des has 12 months drilling down his systems and structures and weeding out the laziness in that squad.

Uncle Nick also bought Bill and Toni's in Stanley St. (The building). Claude and Eva however run the business. Good friends of mine.
