I must concede with the news of tippa last week. I don't think he will play another game

Bump. Thought it would be interesting, then found I s***posted rather than contributed

Interesting read retrospectively still though.

Port as runners up.
Surprise win of the year - Brisbane.

Many here had us as a top 8 side. citizen-erased, top 4

Interesting read these 2022 predictions.
Goes to show how we were still flying high from that 2021 season.

Geeze 2022 was a bad year.
That ultra tough fixture knocked the wind out of the team. Injuries and losing Hooker and Tippa and the goals they would kick, did the rest.

I didn’t post, but I probably would have been optimistic. Although, after round 1 I had us bottom 4 so my optimism evaporated very quickly.

I was devvo after putting such a poor perfirmance against Geelong. I would have had us pushing the 8 before that.
