Message: [QUOTE="HarryAllan7, post: 3438519, member: 9372"] For a little perspective... if someone had told us before the year started that we'd go from wooden spoon contenders to top 8 then I think we'd have been pleased and consider the season a success. (I certainly would have) I think the team over-achieving and getting hot in the middle of the year and looking like a Top 4 side for a few weeks is probably the only thing that is now making a top 8 finish seem like a disappointment and failure. I don't think we were as good as we looked during that period, but I do think that we're heading in that direction and next year we should be targetting a top 4 finish. I think we're all so used to Broncos being a top 4 side that when we slipped back in we all felt like everything was right again and the last few years were just a horrible nightmare and things are now back to normal - the reality is a little more sobering and it's going to take some more time before we're back where we should be... but we've come a LONG way already and showed some very positive signs for the future. I'm not excusing the late season form / effort of this team over the last few weeks, which has been shocking and disgraceful and has left a bitter taste in all our mouths about this season... but we knew that this was a young team starting a rebuild and there would be inconsistency and ups / downs. Getting back into the finals and laying the foundation for a proper shot at the title next year may not be the miraculous turnaround we all thought we were witnessing after the Parra game, but it's still a big improvement from last year and holds us in good stead moving forward, even if there have been some very disappointing elements to the year.
