I don't know about you, but from reading what I have read from Kearney's interviews, Arthurs and from the boys updates on twitter, it seems like we might be in for a very good year. I do admit however, we do not have the strongest team. We have lost a lot, especially in our backline. However we have made some signings of players who arnt very popular or as others say "big name players", however they could ahve potential in our team.
The way I see it, Kearney is changing our team completley, not just the players but the type of footy we are going to be playing is going to be a lot different. We will no longer rely on the bounce of the ball or our flukey offloads, he has a stratergy, i think it will be much like the dragons, with their "grinding' football style as Kearney's pre season straining has mainly been fitness and cardio to go for the full 80 minutes of the game( Parramatta in the past have usually started to play 20 minutes before the full time whistle -_-).
I think Kearney has made these changes for the best of our football team. Sure we are not going to be the most attractive team in 2011, but I think we will suprise many and turn things around. Kearney looks organised and well structured, so hopefully our team can remain consistent and play some good footy.
What are your thoughts? Do you understand and agree with what im saying? Do you think we will have a good year or a bad year? Whats your prediction on where we will finish on the ladder this season?
:D

I think we will come around a bout 5th or 6th :D
Seventh easy.
With the Melbourne Storm being a much weaker team now and other than the Dragons who will have pretty much the same side as last year, I don't see any team being a stand out above any other side. The competition was very even in 2010 and I don't see it being any different in 2011. Consistancy will be the key for next year and I think Kearney is addressing that right now. We may not blow sides off the park, But I think we will have more wins than we did in 2010 and I think we will make the top 8.
I really hope we do much better than 2010, it was so bad to watch.
3rd, that is where most teams win the comp from... I think
SK"s 2011 plan...make the 8...plain & simple.....
