Halfway rating.

[Rich102]

Halfway through the regular season.
Rate the season so far out of 10. (10 being excellent - 1 being abysmal)

4. Can't believe we're as high as 9th with our inability to defend.

 

[ozbash]

6.9999

 

[NZ Warrior]

I went with 8, rather than 7. I think the Warriors have the little things or crucial things going against them during games. Whether it be injury to one of the players, or individual errors.

Once they are overcome, I think the Warriors will be a dominant force in the back half of the comp.

Given the bright expectations we had at the start of the year and the good reason for it player-wise we're currently very poor

 

[hitman82]

See above post - poor.

 

[Fast Eddie]

Very poor. They've gone backwards miles defensively, some bad roster and team selection and despite being ranked quite highly in points scored the attack is pretty kick and individual brilliance based with minimal offloads or willingness to stray from one out hitups as evidenced by v Tigers and Storm.

4 IMO. Considering the talent we have, and the established team, we should be building on last year. I know a different coach has different ideas, and we have had various players out as well, but we need to get a lot of issues sorted, defence especially, before we are going to worry any of the top teams unless they are having a real off day.
Usually I'm optimistic, but this year I just don't know tbh.

5. Ho Hum, when we should be 9. Going great guns. Selection blunders, strange bench rotation and woeful backline defence is keeping us out of the top four. Its very frustrating but we can take heart that we've at least got the potential to do great things.

Surely that's the crux of the matter. The results and performance are so far from the potential it isn't funny.

 

[Aragorn]

Did not meet expectations.

 

[Juju]

41.6%

On track to miss the playoffs.

Way off target for a top 4 finish.

With so many inconsistent teams this year I think we might squeak into the top eight, but not get very far after that.

Its a lottery been 11 and 7 really... I think it may depend on the Bunnies and Sharks and if their form can hold or they do the traditional fade away.

We need a winning streak pretty urgently...

Poor - 8 or so months ago this club had 3 teams in their respective GF. Now the 1st grade team is 9th. Agree with previous comments re bad selections, recruitment, defensive efforts, bench rotation (yesterday why was the Fish back on?) etc. Most of these points actually relate to coaching - dont they?

 

[shinobi]

4/10. Very disappointing. More losses than wins. sums it up really.

 

[Skram]

I've gone for 6. Bearable, as I'm finding these losses poor for most of the reasons already mentioned but I find it bearable because a lot of little things have gone wrong and the potential and personnel are still there.

You know we should be used to this every season I have high hopes only to see them dashed. It wont be long now when we can start looking forward to next season without Maloney, Brown,Luck, Ta'i (and who knows who else) with Inu off the books and a couple of new faces for it all to be repeated again.
Actually looking at the list of departing players we're going to have a team thats half gutted with not a lot of people stepping up that I can see.

Player retention / squad depth has been the most disappointing aspect to me.
It's like we are stripping away what was one of our major strengths in 2011.
Bluey's just trying to stamp his mark on the club I guess.

True Juju its a bit like running a business if you come in as the boss, if certain aspects aint broken dont try to fix/change it look at the weak parts and work on that.
