On any day we are capable of beating most sides , just like we are capable of losing to most sides.

For this reason we’ll finish about the same as last year , 11th ti 13th.

NOT 17th
Hello Feathered friend
I trust that you have been keeping healthy and well
Enjoying your road trips
and keeping warm Spooning on those cold winter nights
 
In the Beginning of the year Mestrov confirmed that the 2023 roster is a competitive finals roster
Anything other than a top 8 finals spot and Seibold would fail to have met expectations

As for excuses for failure ?
Any Tom Dick and Harry can come up with many

Any incompetent person can find an excuses for failure
The Great competent ones find ways to over come Seasons adversities and prevail
and this is why they are called Great and Great people also make Great clubs

We all understand that success is not Linear
But if we do not start winning games and meet finals expectations this season
Seibolds Linear line would fail to meet its first years mark

11th - 13th is quite reasonable. 🙄 Roll on 2024! Not that many years left to see one more grand final win
 
We'll be 15th-17th. Dogs are 15th, and have just as many wins as us. The bye is making it look like an optical illusion ladder wise. We'll be fighting it out for the spoon, and will be looking forward to Tommy Talau joining our ranks (unlike most other bottom feeders who actively acquire marquee talent).
 
Between Saints and Bulldogs for mine, I'll say this about the Bulldogs, they always manage to find a way to lose.
I still can’t believe the Fox decided to play independent doctor 5 metres from his own try line, leaving a huge hole for Suaalli to score then convert his try, leaving Keary to kick the winning field goal. For all the speedy tries Fox scores, geez he does some dumb shiit in defence.

And as for us getting the spoon….not happening!

You gotta play the whistle but he was right, Reed was concussed by an illegal act.

Agree, the Fox is a entertainer, you can only beat your chest so many times and expect the crowd to roar their approval every time he scores. But i wonder how many times the crowd curse his name in their heads when he misses tackles even an average 1st grader should make..
 
Spoon doesn't seem too likely this year, we're not great but there are plenty of worse teams than Manly,
 
Dragons and Dogs, roosters are poo, Newcastle too, tigers not great, we should finish above all of these.

Hope you're right mate. Last 5 games of each (looking at trends) - you are right, it's pretty close between us and the bottom dwellers:

Manly (1 win, 4 losses) - ave 24 against, 18 for
vs. Knights Loss 28-18
vs. Raiders Win 42-14
vs. Sharks Loss 20-14
vs. Broncos Loss 32-6
vs. Titans Loss 26-10

Dragons (1 win, 4 losses) - ave 26.8 against, 18.4 for
vs. Panthers Loss 26-18
vs. Dolphins Loss 26-12
vs. Roosters Win 24-22
vs. Cowboys Loss 42-22
vs. Tigers Loss 18-16

Dogs (2 wins, 3 losses) - ave 23.4 against, 20.8 for
vs. Roosters Loss 25-24
vs. Titans Win 20-18
vs. Warriors Loss 24-12
vs. Raiders Loss 34-30
vs. Dragons Win 18-16

Roosters (2 wins, 3 losses) - ave 22.4 against, 14.2 for
vs. Bulldogs Win 25-24
vs. Dragons Loss 24-22
vs. Panthers Loss 44-4
vs. Cowboys Loss 20-6
vs. Warriors Win 14-0

Knights (2 wins, 3 losses) - ave 26.2 against, 21.6 for
vs. Eagles Win 28-18
vs. Sharks Loss 26-6
vs. Titans Win 46-26
vs. Eels Loss 43-12
vs Cowboys Loss 18-16

Tigers (3 wins, 2 losses) - ave 16.4 against, 23 for
vs. Raiders Loss 20-19
vs. Cowboys Win 66-18
vs. Rabbits Loss 20-0
vs. Dragons Win 18-16
vs. Panthers Win 12-8

by the way, I'm on holidays and bored....as you can tell haha. But this shows:
1. Equal worst record of the 6 bottom teams (over 5 games)
2. 3rd worst defense of the 6 bottom teams (over 5 games)
3. 2nd worst attack of the 6 bottom teams (over 5 games)

We aren't really setting the world on fire.

Tigers got Titans this week, that's a push, I'm tipping Manly to beat the Phins, I think the dogs will get beat by the slime, Souths should take care of the dragons and easts have the panthers. You're right we're not setting the world on fire but I don't think we're getting spoon. If we lose this week I will be more concerned though.
 
Actually love Leonard Cohen the singer-songwriter, a unique talent. Poignant, even haunting. Not necessarily the right tone for a victory party of course!
So long Marianne, guzzle guzzle guzzle pour it down the muzzle, hmm. Horses for courses!
Try the record I cut with Phil Spector, that'll get ya movin'!
