It's difficult to target winning competitions, but our target should be to be in the KO rounds of both major competitions every year. 
We're still still here, but I wish we were in an Anglo-Welsh

We have a stronger non test team next season, the target for the league should be a home semi. Also if we can get a home quarter final in Europe again then we could hope for that elusive home semi in Europe. By damn we're due one!
 
My expectations are higher. A Euro final or even the grail has to be in our sights.

Pivac came in, set targets and has achieved them all.
Its now time to look at those targets and raise the bar.
We became Pro 12 champions IN 16/17. We defended the title in the final 17/18.
We reached the semi final of Europe 17/18.
 
For 18/19 from my point of view:
We need to continue being highly competitive in Pro14.
Reaching the knock out stages yet again in Europe.
 
Its all about progress.

I was talking to a friend of mine who is a season ticket holder over the Loughor & he said that the Ospreys should be looking at a semi final place in the challenge cup as a minimum this year, though with the calibre of teams in it they may not make it that far.

Anyway that got me thinking about what our expectations are now. Three seasons ago if someone had said to anyone us, within 3 years you will win the Pro 12, make the final the following year & reach the semi finals of the Champions Cup, I am sure many of us would have said "if you say so". But we are coming off the back of quite a couple of seasons.

So what do we think will constitute a successful 2018/19 season?

I would like to think we will make the semi finals of the Pro 14 & certainly the knock out stages of the Champions Cup though if I am greedy I would love a home QF & 'home' semi final too.

I also look forward to the development of younger players such as Ioan Nicholas & Ryan Conbeer.

I appreciate we are weeks away from the start of the season but what, for you, are you looking for next season?
