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.
9. Melbourne Storm - Ensure the wait continues
There isn't a single rugby league fan out there, not wearing purple, who isn't waiting for the fall of the Melbourne Storm.
It's been, seemingly forever, since the Storm had a down season. Surely 2024 is the year? Right?
Their stars are aging, the conveyor belt of future superstars seems to have stalled and the clouds are gathering.
This is the Melbourne Storm! They'll probably unearth the next generational talent and sweep the competition to lift the trophy.
This is the closest they've looked to being there for the taking in many, many years. Excuse the pun but seems like the perfect storm for Melbourne to once again rise and laugh in our faces.
