I think i'd be much happier right now sitting here had Holbrook been at the helm but i'm sure Burgess will be putting everything he has in to this - i'd guess his ultimate aim is a head coach role back in the NRL, so a successful stint with us would help that. I also hope Chambers is able to put plans in place for stability behind the scenes and we see growth in the amateur, scholarship and academy side of the club.
In terms of position / silverware, I don't see us anywhere near top 2 of Wigan & Saints, anything less than top 6 not good enough. I'd like to see us rid ourselves of the complete lack of mental toughness when it comes to throwing away leads once the opposition gets back in to the game, and generally have a bit more positivity about the place.
Success for Wire equals winning something - nothing less. However, I don't think many of us realistically expect to win something this year. Failing that, let's hope we can at least improve along the lines you suggest. Play with more flair and purpose, defend tougher, acquire some mental resilience, qualify for the play-offs and actually go into them with hope and belief rather than limping into them with an impending sense of almost-certain defeat. That would be a start.
