Sack Seibold Immediately

[Andrew..]

I don't understand. If Aloiai and Croker weren't retiring, we'd still have to pay them. So if they are retiring, surely we would have their money available for 26.

 

[Lyons2beaver]

If Seibold is still coach heading into 2026, they can expect memberships to nose dive. If they are conceding defeat before a ball is kicked, why shouldn’t supporters do the same? And a future with Seibold calling the shots from head office? God help us.

If he comes back, I won’t be watching

It doesn't add up.

I think the NRL will force us to play them even if they don’t want to play anymore, and give their money to DCE.

Same. Also a supporter since 1973.

Quick summary of media discussing seibold this week - yes it’s chat GPT - get over it.

Got it—here’s the last 48–72 hours of Seibold chatter from the two shows, plus the George Mimis angle.

NRL 360 (past 2 days)

• “Edgy Seibold, pressure building… but call already made.” Panel discussion framed Seibold as under the pump, yet tipped to be retained beyond this season (wording in the Fox Sports recap of the segment).
• “He’s in a toxic environment!” A fresh clip drills into whether the DCE departure noise + club politics derailed Manly’s year.
• Crisis-talks vibe. Another NRL 360 cut-down pushes the idea Manly were set for “crisis talks” as fan frustration boiled over.
• Context: the heat is coming off a bleak run culminating in the Tigers loss this week.

Kenty Blitz (this week)

• “Manly Sea Eagles leaks wrecking Seibold’s position as coach.” New Kenty Blitz upload explicitly pins the pressure to leaks undermining Seibold’s authority. (Title of the latest video/short.)

The George Mimis piece (what shows/panels are leaning on)

• In the last week—and now getting re-aired in panel/chatters—reports say a group of Manly old boys led by Anthony Watmough, with player agent George Mimis “on side,” are pushing for Seibold to be moved on, with Matt Ballin floated as the preferred replacement.
  That storyline is what Kenty’s “leaks are wrecking him” framing is tapping into.

Micro-pulls (titles/phrases on air)

• NRL 360: “‘Edgy’ Seibold feeling heat with ‘pressure building’ but Manly coach call already made.”
• NRL 360: “He’s in a toxic environment!” (DCE saga segment).
• Kenty Blitz: “Manly Sea Eagles leaks wrecking Seibold’s position as coach.”

You left out where Kenty said he had heard that certain players are off Seibold’s coaching style,not necessarily him personally

Confirmed Mimis manages both Ballin and Ennis, interesting he’d push Ballin over Ennis if true.

Mimis also manages Des

Just more AI garbage really.

 

[Bomb Voyage]

Sounds like Josh A & Croker aren’t going to be medically retired if we aren’t bringing anyone else in

From what I can gather, it's more of an issue of there being no one to recruit (compounded by no one wanting to join our basket case club) than having no money to spend.

If that is the case then that is taking the easy way out. Other clubs seem to find a way .......

The Manly Way.

Not sure what you’re referring to with AI,but Kenty mentioned it on his podcast yesterday whilst talking about Andrew Webster’s story for NewsCorp

Paul Crawley said the same thing on NRL360.

I was referring to AI compiling the article in this thread and still missing the mark. It wasn't related to your correctly pointing out what Kenty said about the players and Seibs' coaching.

Geez, that premiership window sure shut quick.

Slammed!! , i think is the verb most appropriate

I think thats what he is saying, that is they aren’t or wont be medically retired meaning they stay on the cap and thus hampering our ability to to buy any other players
I hope thats not the case

So are you saying that Kenty and the like are basing their stories and opinions of Manly’s problems,off AI concocted tales?

No. The report you initially responded to was AI generated, posted by @Not Paul Kent (how ironic.) But the report failed to reference what the real Paul Kent said about the Manly players being off Seibs' coaching. Anyway, it doesn't matter. We are living in the age of Artificial Intelligence which can result in loose facts and lazy reporting to go along with the multitude of deceptive videos now destroying the internet.

Geez, that premiership window sure shut quick.

It was a fiction created by our owner, CEO and coach.
