Well ... you know we are officially on life support ... when ..
The Shooey re-signs for pocket money ... knocking back mega deals from meg clubs for mega dollars ... all because he loves Seibold and Manly ... if that doesn't make you want to just hug the big lug ..
.. and the response from the jaded Silvertailian's ... one sad basstard changes his vote to Optimistic and we go from 70.5% ... to 70.6% ..

First the Shooey all bubbly about the future with Seib's ... NOW Brookie Brooks raps the Seiboldster
It's a player Optimism-athon ...
Qoute ... "Brooks is relishing the chance to play alongside Daly Cherry-Evans and learn off Anthony Seibold. He cannot wait to link with Tom Trbojevic and some of Manly’s young and emerging stars. There is genuine enthusiasm in his voice as he talks about the future."
70.8% and climbing through the roof ..

Who can argue with " genuine enthusiasm ".
‘Pretty sure I am one of the "jaded Silvertailian's". lol

Casting an eye over posts on Silvertails in the last couple of weeks (admittedly not stopping to read most of them) it is astonishing to me that only 29.2% feel pessimistic.
Could of sworn 80% of the posts are extremely pessimistic. I guess those poeple must just post more often.

After a week of seemingly positivity with signings etc one would expect this positivity should translate into a barnstorming win against a maligned Roosters. If not, one should have every right to be feeling pessimistic, i.e. too much talk and hype vs running hard and tackling hard on game day. I am expecting a big win 😀
Yes if we can't roll these stuffed chickens plenty including me will be spittin chips 🙂
Could have something to do with all the YT "shorts" on Brooks.
I can’t turn them off!😱
Just took a glance at the ladder (which I don't do much, it's not very informative this year given the draw and all the byes etc) and am reminded that but for one incorrect call way back in R3 ... Manly would be on 23 points and solidly in the 8, while Souths (many people's favourites to win this year's comp) would be back on 20 points!
Manly does need to string a few wins together and is capable of doing that. On the other hand a few more losses and morale might sag and the season could again end in depressing fashion. Keeping the team focussed and positive at this crunch part of the year will tell us a lot about Seibold and his prospects here going forward.

Apart from the top 2 it’s such a lottery each week so anything could happen but I think you are right , a couple more losses and it’ll be over for another year ( if it isn’t already ) and thier heads will drop.
Hoping it's not a repeat of last year. That was awful to watch.

Optimism has fallen to it's lowest level in recorded history ... but at 70.1% still strong.
Time to update your feelings on the events of the past 2 weeks. To recap we have ..
Flogged Roosters
Signed Brooks
allowed the Fainu siblings to leave
Re-Signed Paseka
Contracted Lodge
and heard from our glorious leader Penn that Lodge is indeed the Messiah
and heard from Seibold that Lodge is the man ..
a Planned pitchforking and burning averted at the last moment due to this stunning news
Surely Optimism beats in your hearts ...

I just changed. I keep having this vision of Lodge taking on a leadership role at Manly, goes like this:
Lodge: "Ok everyone, it's halfway through the season, time to mope or play up or whatever we can think of to get out of this joint and finish the season at a new club"
(maybe nightmare is a better description than vision, but that's the gist)
