Agreed. Too many deficiencies in this team to threaten this season. It would be good to give Bird and Holmes an experience of semi final footy this season for their development.

Maloney goes some way to addressing the obvious deficiencies but a few more astute signings will also be required.

An opinion piece from a bloke who states the bleeding obvious I'm sure.

I've heard him with a microphone - doubt he is much better with a keyboard.

Won't bother reading it.

Guessing we do, seeing as we are recruiting for it.

Of course it's good to know players like Maloney & Townsend are coming but that's in the back of my mind.

There is this year to contend with...& we are getting better.

Not saying we will win the comp but I'm looking forward to some good wins to come on this season.

Take away the tragic losses to the Warriors & Titans, or the first 4 games duck egg, we are going alright.

Live & hope.....

Haha. Take away all the games we have lost and we are going good.
Love that logic :)

We've only been thrashed twice this year.

Every other loss we've had a very good chance of winning.

Two games we through away in the last minute.

The Flanno haters don't like to hear we could be in the top 4 right now.

I guess with the first 4 losses thing, shows we are 1 of the "form" teams.

Doesn't feel like it as there has been a lot of angst in between.

My point is, we are improving & premierships aren't won in March.

Ha. Im not a flanno hater.
But the facts are we lost those games.
No point saying "we could be in the top 4 if we won the games we lost".

Melbourne are 4th, 2 points in front of us, effectively 3 or 4 with a far superior for / against.

Id say that is close condidering Melbourne's current injury problems.

Edit: Roosters will go to 4th with a win tonight, on for / against.

Does anyone seriously think we are going like a top 4 side?

We can play the 'if Wade doesn't throw that pass' game forever but the facts are we are where we deserve to be on the ladder.

Who cares about 2016 atm.
Gotta hold onto something. The "premierships aren't won in March" brigade still believe in Santa I think.
Will we make the 8? Who cares - cause we will get are asses kicked anyway.

Yep is what it is. 9th 4 points clear of the spoon considering we lost our first 4. Can make a run at the finals if a few find form. Lucky the competition is so close. Some good signs regarding attacking footy when behind on the score board this weekend. Here's hoping it snot an aberration though.

Yep. The team has no points in them at this stage. Seriously think our only hope of improvement this year lies with Barba. We get him playing 80 minutes like he did on the weekend and we are a much more dangerous team.
