Bit of a gee up for you

Where did you tip us to finish?
I said top 8 but may struggle for a top 4 spot.
Happy as!

I tipped Melbourne to win.
 
I don't think I posted a tip, but like most was thinking 5th/6th, then saw enough promise early on to think maybe more, I'm very happy so far, but it's along way to go to a premiership still.
 
Before Melbourne I said we had the talent to be possibly 3rd or 4th this year. After the injuries in Round 1 I thought 6th. Then we beat the Roosters and went back to my original thoughts...plus Melbourne annihilating the Tits the week after playing us made me feel a lot better.

There is a thread in the important thread section where You can see which ones of us has made gooses of ourselves re where we will finish.
 
I didnt post a tip, but I thought 9th-12th.

I never dreamed we would have a hope of making the finals, and if we dont win another game I will be over the moon with our season.

My reasons,

1 Matai and Glenn started suspended
2 Rookie half, who had failed to impress when I seen him last year
3 Aging props who had average years last season
4 Unsure how Brett and Wolf would come back
5 I thought our forward depth was almost zero
6 I didnt predict the poor season that the Roosters, Parramatta, Dogs and Raiders would have

How wrong can you be.
 
I figured lower half of the 8 with a a chance of top 4, the x factor being how the new halves went and if b stewart would stay healthy and on the field.

Now, the x factors are probably the same for the finals. If b stewart is at the back, and the 6,7, and 9 are all fit through the finals, and the pigs can do the job minus kingy, then it depends mostly on what the halves have learnt in the year. I am confident foran is up for it. with all the experience around DCE he should do ok.

if foran or dce get hurt, lyon into 5/8 and I'm still confident.

no b stewart and I'm looking at next year. I'm expecting him to put a stamp on this finals series. giddyup.
 
After that l-o-n-g off-season and knowing we're down in stocks (Skivvy & Glen) for the start of the season I was keen but very pesimistic.
We played the Purple Scum and almost got flogged, well.... beaten anyway.
I thought "This is gonna be a long season! Oh well.... here we go!"
 
I'm not sure why everybody calls our 2 props ageing or old. They are both only just 30. Born 14 days apart actually. Petero is 35 and Steve Price was 35 when he finished. They've both got a few years left.

I said 5th....and it won't be that...so happy to be considered a "GOOSE"

5th is my line.

I said 7th at best
 
There's a sticky thread above with everyones predictions. 2nd exceeded my expectations I'm happy to admit.
 
I said second, I'm sticking with it oh and btw people....owned by a vastly superior mind, read prediction thread for confirmation of your failure to predict near the amazing brainpower I have, revel in my excellence
 
Yes I'm a goose too. Don't remember if I actually tipped them to finish outside the 8 but that's what I thought. Happy to honk like a goose.

Jumping the gun? I suppose your amazing brainpower doesn't quite grasp the possibility we could still finish in other positions, including 1st. 🙂
