    We are a game behind the Lions and the Sharks and they haven't won one yet either.

    ---------- Post added at 20:27 ---------- Previous post was at 20:22 ----------

    We are in a very similar boat to the Sharks. We had 36 points last year and they had 38 making both of us good teams. But this year it just hasn't been happening for us or them. They've had their injuries (Hernandez, Pienaar for a while) and we've had ours (Pretorius, Shepherd, Brown, Pocock). They've been putting in better performances than we have but still. And hell the Sharks went from last place in 2005 to 5th in 2006 while the Waratahs went from 13th in 2007 to 2nd in 2008. It might be a bit of a crappy year for us but next year is bound to be better.

    I'm still tipping Lions for the spoon, they look worse than us.

    It would take a bit to make me bet on much higher than 12 though!

    I voted no, but i have to say i am not putting my cash where my mouth is, we really need to turn around asap. We are playing second grade rugby, in a premium competition
