Brilliant post and very much in keeping with my thoughts....we should be looking at what we have and there is a lot to be positive about. Really looking forward to this season and seeing some new players.

Great post. I'm looking forward to this season, more than I was the last. We don't have a team full of superstars nor can we afford one. The key this season is whether Stones and Walsh can make a difference and get the most out of our players, who on the face of it appear to have a lot of potential, with a number of players out to prove themselves at this level.

Well I can't disagree with any of that either. Most hopeful that in the new signings all have something to prove, to want to get in to SL, or back into SL, to prove themselves for a NRL shot, or to simply get in to a sound club environment and aim for a starting spot.

Our existing players from last year will have learnt from the horrors of the Middle 8's and will be extra determined to avoid that.

Lots of positives then not least in RS and new conditioner. Will be very interested to see who gets the nod for the 17 in the first game.

Hoping for Top 8 and anything better is a bonus.

Love the positivity and hoping to see much improved focus and determination resulting from it from players and fans.

Bring it on now - COYG

If we make the top 8 it will be good progress.Get off to a good start who who knows we could push for top 4.
