OK, there is a lot of talk from a lot of people on where they think we will finish 2023 given our strong recruitment and new found enthusiasm and attitude in the squad.

Everyone agrees we will improve on last year's disaster of a season

I want to know where everyone thinks we will finish.
Just a hard confident position prediction.
None of this 1 to 4th bullshit or 6th to 8th crap so on and so forth.
None of this, oh if so and so dies this that or what ever, blah blah blah.

Just pick a position on the record and own it.


Also, add 3 other predictions


At the end of the year, it will be interesting to read back through and see what everyone else thought and where we actually end up..
Predicted finish 10th

My 3 additional predictions
1 - we will be 9th for points scored
2 - we will be 13th for run meters
3 - we will not lose any game by more than 30 points.

I have us 10th at the moment. I have us slightly behind Raiders and Broncos at 8 and 9. The second trial may change my opinion though

Heart says we win the whole thing. Head says we still won’t make the 8. Finishing 9-12. I want to be in that clump of teams fighting for 7-8th spot.

8th - on the back of breakout years for:
Kiraz (close to Dally M winger of the year)
Burton (plays origin again) &
Dare I say it, TPJ (most offloads and our best forward alongside Max this year).
All are possible - lets go 2023

Below average forward pack compared to the top 8 teams from last year. New coach new systems and new combinations will take some time to gel.

Predicted Finish -11th

First Sack Ciraldo thread - Round 6

Im going with 7th. Its not the change of players that excites me for this year, its the bond between the boys. There has been such a dark cloud hanging over our club over the past few years. Players always hung their heads and struggled for energy. This will all change this year!
Im expecting an exciting brand of football built off the back of very good defense.

I would change the Ciraldo thread prediction to today, mate.

If the bonds off the field are as strong on the field and the team can build some lethal combinations early with some early momentum taking it through the season and our defensive structures have improved from the defensive orientated coach I do believe we can finish anywhere from 6th to around the 12th. Mark optimally top 8 of course. But with many teams improving on paper apparently it will be a tough ask but I think it’s well and truely possible.

I think we'll start the season well and get to State of Origin period in the top 4 or around it.

After SoO, we'll start to fall down the ladder as the better and classier teams rise to the top.

We'll finish 7th/8th, with 2024 being the big one.
