    It all hangs on this Fridays game.

    If we get pumped we're doomed to another miserable season.

    If we win we know we're competitive, thats all.

    Should be no talk of finals, pure hypothetical and even the Crusaders wouldn't be that foolish.

    No more excuses - its all about the Brumbies game result. Big crowd expected at the game apparently.

    If we get thumped, we may well be doomed, but I don't think beating the brumbies will give us any idea how we'll fare against other opponents - they're shite.

    That's why I said three weeks, by then we'll know where we stand in conference and that's hugely important in this competition

    I think 2012 will be no different that previous years. Another dismal season looms!

    We're not talking finals. Just taking it one week at a time. The main goal is consistency. We're not looking at our position on the ladder. If we stick to our guns and have faith in our systems the score will take care of itself. We just need to score more points than the opposition.

    We can only hope!
    I just don't want to hear any more excuses. We have been building a team for 6 years now and nothing has changed if anything under Graham we have gone backwards. Being realistic we wont make the finals but should be 3rd in Au conference.
    Please prove me wrong and make me happy!

    I am heartened by the way the Highlanders surprised everyone last year. OK, so they didn't make the finals, but if we have a similar start we will be in with a shout.

    Yes, I say!

    For Sharpie!!

    I don't think we'll make the finals this year (unfortunately) but I do think we need to look to build a team. We didn't have much of a pack when the club started and managed to bring through some younger players and build up a world class pack over time.

    Now we need to do that with our backline as well. I like the fact that Graham hasn't rushed out and bought a new marque player. Keeping our options open at this stage may enable us to see how the younger guys go and then plug the gap, but not with a one year deal. If we've gone through the pain of letting O'Connor go to create a team culture, then lets make sure that we do create a really strong team culture! Otherwise we may has well have kept JOC and surrounding him with journeyman type players....

    With Sharpie retiring this is a really important year in the history of the club and it is time of us to create a culture that is uniquely West Australian and not just a cashed up importer of high paid players.

    Happy to be shot down!
