2012 will be most like what past season and why?

[Windy_Hill]

1992

A group of young players Heppell, Carlisle, Hurley, Pears, Zaharakis to form the core of a future premiership team. Similar to the scenario when Hird, Misiti, Mercuri first appeared in 1992. The end of 2012, we will see the likes of Joe Daniher selected under the Father and Son rule just as Fletcher was at the end of 1992. There is still a group of experienced players such as Watson, Hocking, Stanton, Winderlich, Hille, McVeigh just as 1992 had Bewick, Long, Somerville, Salmon and Wallis.

I dont think we made the finals in 1992 however, I expect we will be a 6-8 team this year

Which of course means that in 2013.......

Which of course means that in 2013.......

....we will be playing in a competition that is quite different to 1993.

Off season posts are the pits

I know, trust me, I am trying to get something going here......apart from accusing James Hird of doing a Gary Neiwand, I am not sure I will get much response

Its a forum, you just mentioned him, mission accomplished

[bomberdonnie]

James Hird of doing a Gary Neiwand

I would watch that

Like the last 5 or 6 years.. Filthy will have a ****** whinge like he usually does, at bloody nauseum, even if we win!

It'll be like the past 10 seasons.

[Rossoneri]

It'll be like the past 10 seasons.

My thinking too. We'll still blame the draw, the injuries and the shit players and lack of game plan.

f***...cancel the bloody thing now

[Windy Hille]

It'll be what it will be. No two seasons are the same. Different players, different eras, different coach. Don't know why we need to compare or predict to be honest...

No, I've already paid for my membership.

Seriously, I am taking nothing ever again from PS or the previous year. Think back to 2008 post season!

And we will be squaring off post match about a single player/whipping boy who "cost" the win (despite it being a drubbing), we will be calling for the regular selection of the next messiah to win the premiership (think CJ/Gumby/muscles) while bemoaning the inadequacy of medical science to get these self same players onto the field.

And so it goes ...

Cynical bastards !!!

You can always dream..............

Haha the copy cat has brought something special out in you Windy... About time you got a sense of humour

[filthy2]

98-99'ish.

[Ronny Rotten]

98-99'ish.

Honestly if this is the case & we lose the prelim final to the scum by 1 point i'll jump the fence & create mayhem .......among the scum players.

The dream would be to win a final of course... but I would be happy if we could consolidate our position next season, finish 7th or 8th... have limited injuries and really get a core group of youngster together that end up playing a solid 15-20 games together in the starting team.

If we do any better than that it will be a bonus I reckon. 2013-2014 is where I would really expect us to start challenging.
