Weirdly I won't be shocked if we go backwards before taking a giant stride forwards in 2019. New combinations and a coach will take a while to gel. I'd be happy with anywhere from 8-12th however the signs must be there for 2019.

Top 8 with progressing to week 2 of the finals.

We've got the toughest draw in the comp. Finishing 8th will be remarkable

Parra
Panthers
Storm
Roosters
Cowboys
Sharks
Dragons should make the 8. Leaving 1 more team up for grabs

Set your expectations low and you can't lose!

I think people also need to accept that Pay is going to make mistakes throughout the course of the season that an experienced coach probably wouldn't make, and deserves a chance to do his apprenticeship without added pressure.

We might have an improved attack but we're still gonna be a team that needs to win games by getting into the set for set grind and defending relentlessly. One game doesn't prove we can't but Pay has an uphill battle because a good bench is vital and we have probably the worst bench in the comp at the moment. I agree with all the comments about Tualau needing to be on the bench. Top 8 will be an over-achievement I reckon but we still should be aiming for that.

7th or 8th, we'll be the smokey this year. Not one these so called experts have us in the 8. Just like 2012!

It’s sad that I now believe a pass mark is not being in the bottom 4

Haha fmd. People acting like we're a top 8 roster in pre season yet now acting like we're worse off than the Knights were and that Pay is actually a great coach and that no other coach in the game would get more out of the squad than he is hahaha.
