Welcome to 2024!
With the new year comes new opportunities. A chance to better oneself and aim for the stars.
By now we've all made our new year's resolutions. Whether it be the old chessnuts like losing weight, chasing that dream job, asking that pretty girl out, or shooting for immortality, we've all now set ours.
So too will each and every NRL club.
Not in any real capacity of course, but let's have some fun and look at what your NRL side's new year's resolution should be!
Please take these as the tongue in cheek comment that they are. I've tried to be serious, where possible, but there's still two months until the NRL season kicks off, so let's have a laugh together.
17. Sydney Roosters - To be the Roosters of old
Despite a late run and a finals round one win last year, I doubt you'll find many who are willing to say the Roosters matches expectations in 2023.
They entered as the team favoured to most likely match the Panthers, but instead needed an all time late-season run just to qualify for the finals.
This side has the talent to be like the Roosters sides of old in that they become certainties to be there at the business end of the season.
Most sides would be happy with a top eight finish and finals win but the Roosters aren't most sides. They'll want to re-establish the aura of years gone by.
