Just wondering what people want/expect from the rest of the season.

Please be realistic, I dont want it turning into a comedy thread

Top 4 and a healthy squad going in to the play offs.

A fit squad with A decent run of form going into the play offs and the semi final of the challenge cup

Same here.

A challenge cup final win, don,t like the idea of not appearing in a grand final.

Appearance at Wembley and a good tilt at the play-offs.

Yeah top 4, fully fit squad and maybe a cheeky Wembley appearance

We've no chance of a Wembley appearance if we come up against Warrington/Wigan or hudds.

I've come to terms that we are no longer a top 3 side. I can't see anyway we can beat Warrington, Wigan or hudds. Maybe in a one off game but to win cups and with the play off system we'd prob have to beat two of them to reach old Trafford.

I don't think we will make Wembley and not got a chance in hell of a ok'd Trafford appearance.

We've lost to Warrington twice by 7 points (and lest be honest it had to happen eventually) we could've beat Wigan twice and once we were poor, we lost to Hudds with literally half a team I think your writing them off a bit too soon.

Still haven't given up on a trophy. Maybe hopelessly optimistic, but I haven't.

We have some top performances in us, and a squad capable of silverware, we just need Simmons to be able to bring them out.

We,ve only been mullered in 2 games, Wigan and Huddersfield. The other losses have been giving the opposition 18 + starts. Starting on the front foot and get our completion rates up we will be match for any team. The challenge cup by beating Wigan or Warrington in the semi final might be the way achieve a cup win.

What I want? The treble please, thanks!

What I expect? No idea.

What I hope for? A win on Friday.

You've basically hit the nail on the head with my point. We lack anyone that can win us a close game at the moment. We are playing with two young halfbacks that have done a truly fantastic job but when we come up against the big 3 the fall short at the moment. Like I said in a other thread, we either stick with lomax and Gaskell and give them time but expect not to win cups for next few years or we get a good quality halfback in that makes things happen and controls the game.

It's just my opinion but I don't think this current side is good enough to win cups this year with the current team. I also think next years team will struggle to make the top 4 with the loss of Graham (best prop in super league and the expected departure of flannery, Pryce and ade.

I hope I'm wrong but that's how i see it.

CC and SL.

To win any trophy this season its vital we get Leon back on the park

Your spot on next seasons team looks like its going to be weaker it doesnt add up 3 top players out plus as you say Flannery and Ade could go yet only 2 in again

I would be happy if this season is the end of our transition and we move into our new stadium with a team that had a real chance of winning a trophy.

I don't do guess'

However I do know for certain we'll win the CC and make the Grand final but loose by turning in the traditional Saints old trafford performance.

Realistically a cc semi and playoff semi
Hopefully a round further in each
Dreaming of of winning one

I seriously think that you are still a good side. With the kids that you've got coming through you are the envy of most other SL teams. Your are a club in transition with your move to the new stadium coming up. Next year you'll get a big increase in gates and the new stadium will result in a massive increase in your income streams.

I think we have the personnel, in particular in the forwards, to win a trophy. However, we need to develop a much more effective strategy for dictating the speed of the play the ball, both in attack and defence, and generally up the speed of our defensive line. If we don't do that we won't get past Wigan in either comp. However, I don't think we're as far adrift as people are suggesting. Barring a pretty big slice of bad luck we could well have won away at the league leaders last weekend, and I think Huddersfield are there for the taking while Brough is out.

Even in the games we have won and played well, our defensive line is very slow compared to the Ws'
I think with a few player back now and Warrington and Wigan out of the way, it may allow us to recharge our batteries. I thought we looked out of gas against Hudds, failed to turn up against Wigan and couldn't play for 80 minutes agianst Wire's intensity.
I agree we've got the players. We've some big forwards, a much improved Scott Moore, Rambo Roby and some backs who can look dangerous (I long to see Makinson in space again). We just need to put the team package together.

You're still one of the teams to beat even with the injuries - fast and strong and dangerous

Top 4 finish with a decent go in the playoffs. Success in the CC is a bonus for me.
I'd like to see us beat the big team hoodo this season, i reckon.

I think we have a small chance, if we improve a few areas on the training park and perhaps if we get Pryce and Clough back without any significant losses, that we could come good and grab a pot, but I can understand the bookies making us outsiders.
