Let's talk some footy
Interested in peoples predictions on how many wins we could land in the first 7 rounds up to Easter
Round 1 - Kinghts
Round 2 - Eels
Round 3 - Dolphins
Round 4 - Warriors
Round 5 - Broncos
Round 6 - Knights (again)
Round 7 - Eels (again)
When you look at our spine and forward pack on paper compared to some of these teams we are capable of getting off to a good start of the season
Predictions please....
Top 8 2023
Good one! 4 from 7 for me.
Eels once, Knights twice and Warriors.

6 from 7 for me. The Broncos will be tough in 2025, the rest are all beatable

I like the optimism, but not concerned it might take time to gel?

I agree that Broncos the only clear loss
All other 6 games are gettable
If we can land between 4 to 6 wins from first 7 games, it will:
- Fill the team with so much confidence
- Ensure every home game this season is full
- Help us land more signings and resignings (I.e Galvin)
And mean we only need to win between 8 to 6 games of the last 17 to reach 12 wins, which is usually the 8th spot bench mark
If we are going to go on a winning streak, it's much better at the start of the season, meaning that the rest of the season is still in play
Than at the end, one we are essentially out of contention
Top 8 2023
P.S
Next 2 rounds
Round 8 - Sharks
Round 9 - Dragons
I don't rate sharks but they are a top 8 team and think we can beat dragons
So could be between 5 to 8 wins after 9 Rounds
Well and truly in the hunt

@frullens Thanks for throwing some focus back on the team again. It would be great to have seen or heard more of how they are training and who is being prepared to fill some of our deficiencies .... but I am happy to jump on 4 Ws out of the first 7 games..... as a minimum.
Happy if it's more because we beat Eels twice!!!
I agree, they’ve been hyped up a little & more people now jumping on the bandwagon of making finals. Unfortunately it rarely turns out that way especially for a team who has struggled for so long. So I think it will take time, maybe we’ll win 2 or 3 of first seven games. I think as the season progresses we’ll get better, expectations will perhaps, not be as great by the midway point but can see us going on a run of 4 or 5 wins 2nd half of season & grabbing a finals spot.6 from 7 for me. The Broncos will be tough in 2025, the rest are all beatable

I need this footy season to start.
In memory of Geoff Chisholm (1965-2022)
3 wins in the first seven. We'll win round 1 I reckon, maybe round 2 then the grind will start. Positive for me is we should get stronger as team gels. As long as we don't lose first 4 we should be able to build confidence with our new look Tigers
7 wins or it's Richo and BOF out, Burgess in
