| I expect we'll go out of the cup as soon as we meet a decent SL team and in the league we'll finish in 9th, 10th or 11th. Agar will be sacked after around 12 games after having a fairly decent start. We'll then either get in a coach who's not much better or be without a coach for a few games while we find the right man for the job. Roll on 2011.
On paper our squad should be around 5th/6th next year battling it out with Wigan and Rovers, and trying to break into the top 4. (Leeds, Saints, Hudds and Wire being the top 4). In the cup, anything less than a semi final wont do.
I wouldn't class top 6 as 'success', but it'd be a huge improvement on the cack we've witnessed these past two years, and with a further clear out and more signings should see us challenging in 2011. We're a team in transition

| Finish in the playoffs is a must, and semis of the cup. anything else is a bonus for me.

Not as much as Rovers have
There defence was still pretty good and looking at their in's/out's the squad looks to have improved. Anything could happen I suppose. At the beginning of this season who expected Bradford, us and Wire not to make the playoffs.

Top 8
Any reason why you would think Bradford will finish top 8 considering all the players they are losing and their apparrant lack of funds?

| Obviously, I expect us to be more aggressive in the forwards next season, but a lot depends on the make up of the team in regards to the 'key' positions:
Loose forward for me has to Washbrook, mainly for his creativity.
Scrum half; a massive weight rests on Longy's shoulders, sure he'll have the protection, we just need him to stay injury free.
Off half; we need Horney to hit the highs of latter years.
Hooker; Leave Berro at hooker and let him rule the roost.

I applaud your optimism but we looked like losing at home to Celtic for 70 minutes. Chuck Noble into the mix and we've got our work cut out.

| Play offs for me is the no brainer achievement for me, shouldn't be looking for anything less at this moment.
As mentioned earlier in the thread the halves may be a problem if we pick up any injuries and that is my major concern for next year, think we have the pace out wide to trouble teams if we can dominate teams in the forwards and imo our pack looks stronger then this years and with that i hope we don't see the fair play award in our cabinet next year as i think thats why we have being struggling as we don't have any nasty buggers who will stand up to be counted and from what i've seen from lauaki this season and o'meley in his nrl career they won't be taking a backward step.
