Quote: fez1 "To be honest we could easily finish in 6th then it wouldn't look so rosy, and to be honest - as others have said - we've been pretty disfunctional for quite a lot of this season.
I really doubt we'll do that much in the play offs - we may win a game or possibly two but can't see us being really good enough to get to the final (let alone bring home silverware).
This is our worst team for the last 4-5 years (but still better than most of those pre Smith) and I think it says more about the quality of teams in SL that we're still up there than anything else.
Next year's potentially looking good, but looking at the numbers we've got I'm not sure how we end up with Bridge/Ratch/GOB/Myler fighting for a maximum of 1 halfback and 1 centre spot if we get another half.
I'm also not too clear about what business the other clubs have done.'"
I think this season's out come could still be within the team's own hands. We have plenty of attacking fire power ,the problem is giving so much possession away to opponents the like of which ,from now to Old Trafford, will exploit ruthlessly any short comings in our attack let alone defence. To progress beyond the first round the coaches need to earn their corn & turn the Wire from flamboyant entertainers into a winning team.
