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.
8. Canberra Raiders - To drop the 'Faiders' tag
We've all enjoyed a good laugh at the inevitable Raiders loss from seemingly nowhere. Unless of course you wear lime green in which case it turns your hair grey.
I've legit lost count of how many times the Raiders have surrendered big leads late in the second half over the years.
If they want to be taken seriously in 2024 then they have to remember how to win tight games. Consistently.
If Canberra won the games they should have won, i.e. leading by plenty, late on, then they'd be finals certainties every year and comfortably so.
Perhaps 2024 is the year they do.
