I cannot recall heading into a season where supporters expectations are so mixed and will probably change week to week.
Taking into account our strong 2nd half of last season, inclusion of key senior players, natural progression of youth, injection of JOM and no reason why Top 4 isn't a realistic shot?
Some may say that we are "rebuilding" but we still have one of the most experienced & oldest lists in the comp, handful of multiple premiership players... heading into 2008 we only had 1 player on the list (Dew) who had actually played in a GF and barely a player over 30+
Both recent premiers (especially Bulldogs) shows that there is no logic when it comes to predicting a premiership contender, so in saying that what are your "realistic" expectations for 2018?
All things being equal, ie no drastic injuries..etc what is your pass mark?
