I'm hoping for finals this year, a grand final in 2008 and flags in 2009 and 2010.

I can't wait to see our boys back in action!  :thumbsup
I would like to see us play consistently and have a crack in the finals, and a couple years down the track, see the boys get a flag... or 2 :gotigers

We are still quite a young list but baring injuries and with a bit of luck should make the eight rather than just miss - and then all smooth sailing from 2008 and beyond for a few years me hopes.  :santa

I'm excited  :thumbsup.

If we can finally get a fairly good run with few injuries and especially no more broken bones or knees :P then it's realistic for us to make the finals. Geez we deserve a change of luck. We weren't far away from the lower half of the top 8 this year and we were ordinary/too young. I don't think we'll get pushed around as much by the big boys next year. Still probably two years away though from being a serious contender.

I'd bet on a top 4 finish if...

Brownie is back to his best,

Tambling fulfills his potential,

Polak can hold down CHB,

KK can Kick 40-50 goals,

and the biggest key is...

Knobel back to good form as a support for Simmo...

I was at the official opening of the Tiges 2007 season on Sunday - a mate's bbq lol
And we did our best line-up for the opening round.
There were about three or four past regulars who didn't even get a mention, not only in the team but weren't even emergencies  :pray
Our depth is improving - we just need a bit of luck with injuries. :pray :pray
There are no excuses (apart from the sky falling in) IMO for at least not making the finals next season.
I can't see that many clubs that are that far ahead of us except for a couple
Be pretty disappoited if we didn't make it.
I've been patient enough and now it's time for them to make me happy lol
Or else  :rollin

I think you'll be proven right with Blingers 1965  :thumbsup. He was burning in the centre during the practice match yesterday.

Don't forget Patto. He's coming along nicely at training. Seems to becoming more agile as his body matures. Given Knobel is coming back from a ankle op, Patto would be no. 2 ruckman behind Simmo at the moment.

Patto in 2008, Knobel and Simmo in tandem worked well.

Seriously, I am looking forward to 2007 because there is a lot to look forward too

My personal view is we should play finals next year but I suppose when you've been disappointed so many times in the past .....

Let's just say I trying to not get too excited  :thumbsup
