Ok, so if we beat Newcastle (god help us if we don't), we will be 4 and 4, and who wouldn't have taken that after the first 2 rounds of the season? We then should aim for the following:
1. A finals spot. 8th is fine, and quite frankly I wouldn't expect any higher. Just playing finals football is enough for me. And if we're 50% success rate after 8 rounds of the season, then I wouldn't expect anything less.
2. Signs of development/improvement of the youngsters. Developing the Turbo brothers and Parcell are the key goals for mine. They are the future of the club. A losing culture can really stagnate development, so it's important a winning and successful environment is created to help them.
3. Work out which non-1st squad players are good enough to make the jump next season. ie Liam Knight.
4. Work out which veterans we want to keep around for the next 1-2 seasons. Who out of Symonds, Mateo, etc, do we want? And what do we do with Lyon/Matai?
5. Develop our leaders for next 1-2 seasons. This is Walker, Taupau, DCE - these guys need to be the voice of the club.
