Sack Spoony Siebold

There are ZERO options until we have an owner who decides we need to win at ALL COSTS… whatever it takes.
That's awesome,there are 15 other clubs that could say the same and most of them are not privately owned,wonder what their excuse is?
Do you have an answer for them?
 
I believe our forwards are the problem. Backs are fine. Paseka, Aloiai, Olakau’atu, Brbo, Lodge are keepers. I’m not convinced on Navale. New blood needed to improve our pack. We’re not gonna do it with TKO, Sipley, Jrbo, Waddell, Brown, MCK.
Patolo, Pua’avase, Sykes, Dunford, Laiafi waiting for an opportunity!
TKO has imo been outstanding for us this season, an absolute must keep for me, and on a side going better would be talked about as one of the buys of the season. Have been pleasantly surprised in his production in a role he wasn’t signed for under a coach that doesn’t promote forward play

I’m also not sure on the other hand how you could have Lodge on a keep list, although I am biased in that regard. He will get chewed up and spat out in week to week footy by anyone who has any footwork, will be an easy target for the good coaches
 
I hate listening to Seibold speak, and I generally avoid all media from him. Can anyone fill me in on what he had to say post match last night
 
Has anyone ever seen Grimace and seibold in the same place, it's time for him to go back to what he's passionate about double quarter pounder meals and fries and not coaching.

Agree except for Lodge who is also a waste of cap space imho

Granted,Taukeiaho is on a small contract,but the season is 27 rounds long,not 12.He’s been pretty good,but any thought of an extension should be put to the back of the mind until season’s end.Only have to cast your mind back to last year when Brown came out of the blocks firing,got an extension,then hasn’t been the same since.
 
Again,no serious options as replacements,if I hear more of the Toovey/Bennett/Bellamy spiel........
We need to bring through a young former Many player, ala Des in 2004 and let him rebuild. Possibly Ballin, but I am unsure who else may fit the bill.
 
And no take on the owner of the club and his performance?
The owner pays the bills. Much has been done under his ownership, such as the centre of excellence. Mistakes have been made, no doubt, but it is the individuals charged with getting the job done who have failed.

Every one makes mistakes along the way
Even the Premiership winners
But the Premiership winners move on from mistakes to masterstrokes
Thats the difference feathered friend
Every organisation is as good as the People that run them

Seibold's speech and body language shows nothing but a man with no passion or answers. Manly flogging a dead horse with this bloke. Put this together with an aged unfit lazy forward pack and nothing is going to improve in the short term. I think some cricket scores are coming our way when confronting top 4 teams

No mention of proud once
Credit goes to Parra
We defended so well last week - blank look on why we can't do it two weeks in a row.
We didn't use our weapons
We had some troops out so I will use that as an excuse
We have Sips back next week and Aloiai.
Jake hadn't played first grade for 18 months
Waddell hasn't played much edge
Where is the closest Maccas?

I am Huge on Passion
Without Passion we all may as well be dead .
Seibolds Pressers are so Passively Subdued
Seibold is as Inspirational as Manly coach as Mestrov was as a Manly Player

The Centre of Excellence is nothing but a vanity project for the owner who lives in NEW YORK CITY!!!! How could he possibly care when he doesn't even live in the same country, let alone city?

It is the ownership that has been the one consistent factor in our decade of disaster.

Passion drives a football club. It must come from the very top. And it most certainly does not.

Our situation will never change while we are under Penn ownership. And it breaks my heart

Matt Ballin could work. Watmough is doing his apprenticeship in the lower grades and could be brought in as an assistant coach. Where has Snake gone? I would love the Stewart brothers to be involved somehow too.

Dynmock would be the first one punted in my opinion. Don’t know why we have Ennis either! We succeed with Manly DNA involved.
