The Anthony Seibold Grievances MEGA THREAD

If true i applaud the stand, but if seibold goes it will be for the same reasons all before him have too. He just didnt make the big calls and that will again start manlys rebuild with another Ironstine making the same mistakes for the same reasons by trying to build a solid game on a rickety bridge

Its not the same as souths because our culture is different but its another win for under performing players with too much control and not enough results to justify

Maybe seibold isnt the answer but pressing the reset switch for players and a new coach would be far worse

Make seibs sweat it, move goalposts, but bringing in a new dude who reckons he can fix a wheel that doesnt want to be fixed is BAD. He didnt sign the big 3 and thats just too big of an anchor for most

NRL news: Contract negotiations between Anthony Seibold and the Sea Eagles break down

Contract talks between Manly and Anthony Seibold are ‘on hold’ with the struggling Sea Eagles refusing to be rushed into any extension for the under-fire coach.

by Phil "Hold My Beer" Rothfield

The future of Manly Sea Eagles coach Anthony Seibold is in doubt at Brookvale after a breakdown in negotiations over a new contract.

Seibold is under contract until the end of next season and was in talks for an extension.

However the situation has changed after Manly has lost its last three games and there is talk Seibold walked out of a meeting with the club management on Thursday morning.

“It’s a results driven business and we won’t be rushed,” said one Manly source.

Seibold and his manager Isaac Moses had been in talks with the Sea Eagles for several weeks.

This masthead understands those discussions have now been put on hold.

It is a difficult one for Manly CEO Tony Mestrov because he is so close to Seibold.

“I don’t think it’s an issue because Anthony is under contract for another 12 months,” Mestrov said.

“We will continue to have discussions with his agent at the appropriate time.”

After looking like a top-four contender earlier in the season, Manly has stumbled in recent weeks.

They have lost to the Broncos, Dolphins and Raiders in the last three weeks.

It has been a hugely turbulent period for head coaches in recent weeks following the sackings of Jason Demetriou and Brad Arthur.

This masthead has reached out to Seibold and agent Moses for comment.

We revealed a month ago that Seibold and Manly officials had an agreement to negotiate a new deal after Round 10.

Manly missed out on the finals last year and are now running 10th on the ladder, hence the decision to hold fire on contract extension talks.

Thanks Rambo 👍🏻
 
What is it with these coaches? Seibold is already contracted for next season and is pushing for an extension **** me do your job get the team to the finals and than we talk.

He has done nothing with us so far I'm stunned he is contracted for next season. Not surprising he is nervous as Arthur is sacked and Penn wanted him before Des was reappointed so it's not surprising.

It is reported in the Tele article that Mestrov is close the Seibold well Tony needs to do his job or leave and the job at the moment is to say Seibs no extension get this team firing or you will not be coach for next season.
 
Really don't see the need for the club to be rushed on this. Would be foolish to enter into an extension at this point. The club holds all the cards. What's Seibold going to do...walk?? No chance of that. He needs to just suck it up and get his team playing better and winning. Perhaps this might fire him up a bit??
 
Very simple and short meeting after Round 10. "Anthony, no further discussions are to be held until you make the finals. We've blown significant leads in 4 games, sitting 10th, finals for the second year running appear highly unlikely under your watch and the team is not improving, some players regressing. We'll talk again in October".

What would be funny is if Moses wants to hold the club to ransom if they continue to delay negotiations/extension,by threatening to take his players out of there

Given his past,he should be fired up enough
 
Siebold sounds defeated, and is making up excuses already for tomorrow in today's press conference. Really fills me with confidence hahahaha

The biggest con in rugby league is the purple patch. Signing anyone during this time is mauve madness. I presumeseibs manager started talks when times were better 5 or 6 weeks back, or maybe they could smell what was a head.

Seib's thinking, I'd better act fast, Arthurs looking like an attractive choice to take over. Watch this space I guess !!

I don't listen to that stuff anymore, Siebold just says the same blah blah every week. And as far as the Manly Way goes, they need to find another Way.
