Nothing. It is one of those I will believe when and if it happens. With Bennett who would know what he is likely to spring.

Sweeeeet....
 
It's a lot better not having to see a third of the team NSW Cup standard, but have a look at the Cows, Storm and Roosters if you want to see dangerous.

Squeaking into the eight will be a huge achievement with the inexperienced spine we'll be sending out.
 
The Cows are just ridiculous. Every one of their spine players is an upgrade on ours, plus they have Scott, McLean, Bolton, Cooper, Lowe, Taumalolo and Hess in the pack.

To be fair thou the Cowboys spent about 5 years or more building that side up we on the other hand have spent the last two years just cleaning out the dead wood and blooding some young guys and are only just at the point of bringing some players in to rebuild the side. I think Brown and Mooney are doing a good job of setting the side up long term and believe we won't be running last next year and if we add another prop or two can be a fringe top 8 side. The age of our spine while making success harder to achieve does not make it impossible look at the Panthers the last few years using guys like Cleary, Edwards, Cartwright even Moylan is still pretty young and made the top 4 last year and are still a decent chance of making the 8 this year.
