Between 8th and 12th for me

10th. We've got a good team, but we don't have the strength in depth to sustain it for long enough to last in the play offs. With the right movement in January and the summer, we could take a real tilt at it next season.

Far too many on here getting their “ blame “ fingers ready to do some pointing...
So as the title says....

Realistically where do you expect DRFC to be at the end of the season?

I will be happy with 10th, 9th or 8th, anything more is a real bonus...
12, 11,10, 9,8th what ever you think out of them the club employed GM to be top 6 as in the job spec

They didn't say "get us into the Play Offs or get the sack" though did they? This has always been a long term project, at this stage of the squad's development and, considering the change in management in the summer, I'd say that finishing between 7th and 12th would represent acceptable progress this season. If we achieve that then we can raise the expectations slightly again for next season.
thank you for pointing out that I said he would be sacked now really point to the part where I said that, facts wrong again you must feel silly getting it wrong

Vicar!
I think our learned colleague is maybe referring to the fact that you didn’t express a view as to were YOU expect us to finish,
But quoted a narrative from our manager based upon his expertise and the boards financial support....

Do you think this current squad can finish in the top half, and if not for whatever reason...
“What do you expect to be the outcome to the Managers seeming failures...?.”
no they won't sack him nor should they, if we can strengthen in January then we can make top 6, now is not the time to be judging, look at Barnsley when they went up last time they were bottom at Christmas

My optimistic self says that I’ve seen enough to suggest we can make the play offs.

But as the thread says ‘realistically’ then I’ll say 12th.

I wouldn’t have been disappointed with that before the season started, but part of me thinks we could do better.

Realistically, it depends on so much - injuries, bans, January changes. I'd plump for 7th.
