It starts and ends here. Our home run into 8th spot. Don't laugh it can happen still but highly unlikely as the Cowboys will probably flog us.
If Sharks lose every game as do Warriors (but must beat the Sharks) and we win all remaining games including Raiders and Melbourne we're in the 8 and Deano gets the Head Coach gig.
I can't be right can I please.

Your assuming our team has pride and spirit. We are as weak as wet cardboard. Cool story though.

Williame cant make the top 19 ? Why persist with Aitken when he is leaving ? I don’t understand our coaches past and present obsession with him, I would have thought planning for the future and seeing how others perform at the top level is a better option.

Please. These guys are all on the way down (and out).
We wouldn't touch these guys ,, would we?
They will more than likely sign all of them .... Really no vision to win a premiership if this is what we are looking at .... If there is not much available use the young guys ....

Absolutely. Contract has been signed so we are unlikely to see another good game from him until the next one comes up for renewal.

I am sick and tired of seeing and saying the same thing and obviously, we don't have any say in the matter of team selection. Aitken - why?

Watching the Parra v Warriors game & in the first try to Sivo he scored unmarked because the Warriors winger cane in to defend the centre. One of my pet hates & unfortunately our wingers are prone to doing it as well. I just hope someone (preferably the coach) has spoken to our wingers & reminded them what they were told in under 7’s - STAY ON YOUR MAN & DONT COME OFF YOUR WINGERS TO TACKLE MEN INSIDE.

We have one prop playing. Kerr.
Rest are light weights/powder puffs and back rowers. See how that goes.

Your right ! For pity sake I wonder if Dean has picked up one of Mary’s old team list by mistake ?
Tolman
Guerra
Woods

on our hit list for next year so that will fix the light weights/powder puff situation

Well there goes the neighborhood - plus our spare $1.5 million they have in the kitty .

Cowboys by 8 in the end.
