Assistant Coach after Flanno

I can see it now

Seibold and Mestrov sign Hook, Holbrook and O'Brien ( after he is sacked by Newcastle) as the new assistant coaches.

What a dynamic team we will be

Mate, the Ox is a Manly legend and already employed by the club as a coach. I seriously think we should promote him.
 
However if we’re thinking succession, is Holbrook, a coach with a middling record and no previous connection with Manly-Warringah, a good option?

How many times does the club have to try, then fail, by employing outsiders as coach? When will Custard Face/Mr Fluffy/Ballpoint/Inky/His Nibs ever learn?

How often, though, does an assistant get appointed when the coach is sacked. It's pretty rare.

First and foremost, we want someone who is a good tactician but also one who can make the players feel they have a supporter who is able to put in words they understand, the academic esoteria of their head coach. That is, get 'em on board!
