Rumours and Stuff

And yet with an average pack, a good 5/8. A centre-turned-half, a lower range hooker and a fullback with little attack we were competing and defeating some teams that were getting a huge leg up via the refs and a much better team than us.

A lot of other teams don't have the resolve that we have. Like Arthur said we're lacking talent on the field atm and have been for a lot of the year. Once we get most of our salary cap back on the field we'll be making these close losses into strong wins.
Hence why I included the word "currently". This discussion was about the possibility of Peats returning and the point I was making is that at this stage, the Titans have a much better roster for next year than we do, making them a stronger proposition of winning the comp. This would likely make them a more attractive option.

I agree with you.

I've been saying for a while that I don't get what's so exciting about 2017.

I love our edge forwards, but our tight forwards are average at bezt; De Gois' heart and guts can't be questioned, but his service is average; we don't know who will be halfback next year...

I'm not trying to be pessimistic, but I don't see how we will make the 8 next year.

Yep. If we go into 2017 with the same mediocre middle, DeGois as 9 and either Robson or Gutherson partner Norman then 2017 will be another year outside the 8.

I think if Titans make the 8 this year then we stand alone as the team with the longest current streak without semi final football. Good times

Except I did. I stated that from 2012 we were being flogged and it happened for 4 years.
However the sentence preceding your comments about Sandow you refer to 2016 so I used the ambiguity to make a joke. Although the fact I've explained it has made it even less funny than it was originally...which is no mean feat.
