Jake T.
Best post on the forum this year ❤️ You get it. You understand that we won because we limited Melbourne’s opportunities inside 20 because we had a meat axe that lead the line speed all night.- LeonardCohen

Post-Game Discussion Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]
I love my club! Only Manly could snap an 11 game winning run for Melbourne at home. What character! I love the effort in defence and the line speed. Corey Waddell for PM! ❤️- LeonardCohen

His brutal defence tonight was sensational! Pay him 900k every day of week if he’s going to defend like that!- LeonardCohen

Post-Game Discussion Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]
Is it just me or have our fortunes completely shifted since we stopped trying to shift the ball to the edges all the time and instead play through the middle and kick to corners?! Honestly this is a serious football team when they play smart. The yardage defence is sensational.- LeonardCohen

Brett Stewart still involved?
It’s also rare that a first grade coach in the making gets their first taste of a coaching gig in their early 40s. More often than not, aspiring coaches that go on to top jobs stay involved in the game after retiring, be it as a trainer, lower grade assistant and/or coach. They don’t typically...- LeonardCohen

Vlandys PNG top 8 on demand 2028 special
See I don’t really feel the dollars generated from SOO change the product for fans; it just fattens the already fat pockets of the game’s administration and maybe contributes to the cap going up? That’s great for the players but with the limit on exports to super league clubs, we are only...- LeonardCohen

Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good
They’re all as bad as each other. Read is flat out dumb with his far out opinions and vain attempts to justify himself when exposed by the panel; Tallis gets personal; Rothfield is senile; Hoops thinks he is the muscle; and Anasta is so drunk on himself, it’s embarrassing. The only guy that...- LeonardCohen

Vlandys PNG top 8 on demand 2028 special
The whole idea is stupid IMO. The talent pool is already pretty thin and now will have two additional teams and retain the bye as a result. I don’t like the NRL scheduling as it is. Continuity is taken out of the season with three byes and the disruption of SOO. I’d prefer 22 rounds, finals...- LeonardCohen

2026 recruitment & retention
I think he could help himself if 20-30 of those conversations could be about 20-30 different ideas, instead of all being about Mestrov 😂- LeonardCohen

Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good
Well this is the great debate at Manly…to buy Brooks, release the Fainu’s and load up on experienced forwards to compliment the big money Tom, Jake and Daly…or…do what Ryles is doing and cut some of the older players and bring through a crop of youths for success later. He’s clearly gone for...- LeonardCohen

Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good
This discussion has come up a few times on Silvertails and I tend to think a bigger issue than Siebs coaching ability are injuries to Tom and therefore his subsequent lack of peak form. More recently, Daly’s departure has impacted results. I also think a lack of depth in the forwards has hurt...- LeonardCohen

Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good
relax, it wasn’t even the point I was trying to make. I said it ‘tongue in cheek’ because we keep missing out on the players we chase (Sitili Tupouniua, Da Silva, etc). It was to emphasise that I’m not necessarily critiquing Seibold’s roster and/or perceived inability to attract talent and/or...- LeonardCohen

Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good
three pre-seasons so now. It’s also not a black and white date on a calendar and I don’t even necessarily think he’s done the wrong thing. I just reject the narrative that he’s hamstrung by the cap and stuck with all these players he has no choice over. There’s enough anecdotal evidence in the...- LeonardCohen

Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good
It’s relevant because I’m pointing out that I am not bashing Seibs, nor do I believe that he should be judged on whether he was able to recruit a marquee player…they have to elect to take up a contract at Manly and we seem to miss out on even the fringe players that come on the market. It was my...- LeonardCohen

New coach Poll
I don't think so. The Dogs had the same management under Barrett that is currently succeeding with Ciraldo.- LeonardCohen

Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good
I disagree a little here. Three years and it's 'your' team. I don't necessarily think he could have landed a big fish, primarily because they probably wouldn't choose to sign at Manly...but history shows that clubs turn over rosters when they want to (looks at Ryles this year and Ciraldo in the...- LeonardCohen

Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good
Yes and I was pretty devastated by the Knights loss, given we were up 16 nil. I really think the Hoppa HIA cost us that night because Ben T ended up in the centres and the Knights were smart enough to keep shifting to Gagai; it was this tactic that ultimately lost us the game.- LeonardCohen
