Well
If I posted on here at the start of the year that I thought we'd not only be competitive, but make finals and top 4, I'd have been roasted from all angles - and probably quite rightly (but boy would it have been a delicious bump).
So on that, I'd say we've already passed for 2017 with flying colours
But
If we lose two straight finals, I'm not sure how the group would cope. Obviously many of our players did not play in our previous 3 attempts, but there is still a large group that may be a bit scarred if it is extended to 5 losses.
Also, next year a finals win is absolute minimum, starting offer pass mark. If we don't win one this year or next year, it's a fail.
