I went for 16-18 due to our lack of scoring power and not expecting the Hawks and Swans to nose dive like they have.... Our scoring power is still a concern but I'm thinking we can get 6 ish wins so whereever that gets us ... 13th - 15th ?

I voted 13-15. Happy to stick with that.

For a variety of reasons I think 16-18 is still likely, but happy with anything above that.

If our current good run with injuries keeps up we can get 8-10 wins I think. If we lose a couple of key guys in the midfield we could have a second half to the season like we had last year. We have no depth.
10th would be about as good as we'll get. 15th worst I think.

A big factor will be our stamina and thus our ability to run out the season. Looking ok so far but I thought we did tire a bit last week.

Yep tired bigtime. Depth is our big issue.
As it is for many teams - tiges = zero depth. Cannot cover even 2 or 3 injuries out of their best team.

I think older guys like Buckley, Boekhorst Lamb, Sumner, Kerridge, Palmer, Jones and Smedts will finish off the season
I havent included Jaksch because he is only 22

I think it is worth noting that we have had an unbelievably good run with injuries to this point. The only real injured player is a bloke who did his knee last year!
Still, only with 3 wins thus far a couple of good efforts makes me think we haven't quite cashed in as much as we'd like.
I can't help but think the karma bus will hit us hard in the second half of the year.
Should our luck with injuries continue, highly unlikely, then i think we should finish in the 12-15 range.
