"I come back to you now at the turn of the tide"
Back to the thread title.
I've read a lot of Seibold bagging by a lot of posters.
After a loss, that happens a fair bit. Seeing a lot of 'if only we had a great tactician and motivator - we would always win. Spoonbold. Spoony. Not a Manly coach. Winning is everything - loosing is for losers' etc etc etc. 'How dare he say that he's proud of the boys / our effort after a loss?'
Wayne Bennett is one of the most decorated RL coaches of all time, most grand final wins, winning seven premierships from ten grand final appearances in the NRL and its predecessors the Super League and New South Wales Rugby League, is coaching a team which is running 16 out of 17 in the premiership. The Bunnies currently have a minus 129 in their for and against.
I don't hear any chorus about Wayne Bennett's coaching abilities - that he's a loser, has lost his ability, or he's not a motivator.
Perhaps success on the field is truly 'multi-factorial' ; i.e. many factors are involved.
And very sadly, that's why I've started blocking particular posters on here. I really didn't want to - I want to see all opinions, no matter how wacky.
But if a poster cannot see any sort of balance at all, and just keeps endlessly banging the same drum based on opinion with no real substantive, balanced evidence (and it's really a bit libelous at the end of the day), then a block it is.
