We have gone from 17 to 13 so 4 spots.

How do you rate this season? For me even with half a dozen new faces we are still miles off the 8 let alone a premiership.

The only solution is recruiting genuine first graders that are middles and a more impactful and competitive bench. I would say limit Terrell's minutes to 30 a half also as he ran out of gas in the end.

What's everyone's thoughts?
 
Less of a fail than in recent years but still a fail. Like the diff between a D and an F. Not closing out the games against the Cows and Titans made it clear that some of the Tigers' bad old habits are still there.
 
Complete failure.

We also had one of the best draws and teams like Souths and Dragons had terrible injury tolls with Roosters and Panthers having terrible injury tolls. Even Parra finished above us.

Next year will be much harder so it wouldn’t surprise me if we’re back in spoon contention especially given the shit coaching and end of season capitulation.

Forgot to mention the massive mid-season losing streak as well.
 
All clubs surely measure their season on the back of making the eight - and some the top 4 - can't be anything but a fail .
Some may see improvement on the previous seasons, and no doubt others won't.
 
We made some small steps in the right direction but we are still miles away from being a finals football team. Very hard to see them getting any closer to the eight next year.
 
Fail, I’m not convinced we are on the improve either that others believe. The Knights and Titans were atrocious. We lost games we should’ve won if we improved like people think.

Our attacking formation non existent for most games, we continue to look lost and our effort just lacks as always.

Benji saying he picked up the training standards 8 weeks ago & players ran out of gas against one of the worst teams in the comp 2 out last 3 weeks to me says it all & we stuffed it up badly.
 
Yeah massive Fail. The season started on such a positive note then went into free fall with the Galvin stuff and never recovered. Top 8 minimum next year otherwise coaching stuff has got to go
 
Fail.

If we broke the 3 wins in a row drought I’d have thought differently.

We have no problem getting 3 losses in a row though. Did it more than once this season.

Parra started their rebuild this year and are already ahead of us. Same thing with the Bulldogs 3 years ago.
 
Fail.
Our high profile players taking up the bulk of our salary cap are overrated and not worth the money we are paying them.
Not sure how we expect to have the salary cap space to sign the right calibre of players around them when this is the case ?
 
Fail. Dragons and Souths had massive injury tolls while the Titans and Knights were just terrible, so finishing above those teams isn't something to cheer about, especially since we actually had the most luck with injuries out of any team in the comp.

We had 4 wins since round 9. 4 wins in 15 games. How can anyone honestly call that a success.
