The Anthony Seibold Grievances MEGA THREAD
- Thread starter tookey
- Start date
Yeah embarrassing.
Penn is so far off the mark if he is talking about 26 and beyond for Seibold you may as well close the doors.
A very sympathetic story it mentions we lost the last three games by a combined 9 points another way to write article is we lost after leading by 20 points on our home ground against a team with two rookie halves, we also lost to dolphins after leading by 12 points.
We also let in on average 22 points per game which is embarrassing.

Dogs and Dragons, don't forget Dragons. Cowboys should beat Tigers - we'll be 12th-13th by the end of the weekend. Then we face Panthers. Round 12-13 we could well be 15th odd. Parra just sacked their coach, and could jump ahead of us.
If Seibs can actually coach, we should beat Melbourne as they have more players out than us.
But can he and will we 🤔

I see this statement a fair bit on here.
What exactly is it you’re doing to demonstrate you will not put up with mediocrity?
Bitching on Silvertails of course.
I am not even going to watch tomorrow nights match live - will be at the pub enjoying myself. I am sick and tired of watching this badly coached team play.
Only thing I can do is not be a member. Will it hurt Penn? nope not at all but he can drive the club into ruins with his own coin.

It's not as if other clubs are lining up to take him off our hands. He is under contract, so lets see how we go.

I’ll accept that Talau has potential, but Brooks is a loser through and through. A Leopard doesn’t change its spots.
For all the people who have bagged Des, he's only missed the finals a total of 4 times.
First when he started here, second when the Bulldogs went to rubbish, third when the Hooker started hooking people with a knife, and finally when the club went behind him to forge a divide between the players and sabotage a side that would've made the Top 8. Every other time he made the finals.
If Seibold doesn't make the 8 this season, not only will his last finals game remain a 58-0 loss, but it'll be over 5 years ago, and he would've missed the finals more than he's made them. If he sticks around for 2025 he very well could match Des's finals misses across his 20 years of coaching, in just 6 seasons. For a "results driven business" I don't know if Mestrov and Penn are committed enough to that motto to actually base their decisions on them.
What's this article where Penn says we are "building"? Didn't he say that we have a premiership roster when he sacked Des, and hence his results were unacceptable...
The double standards shown by Mestrov and Penn are ridiculous. Mestrov seems a great guy and a great manager but has he ever managed something as competitive as an NRL side? He's been neutered by Seibold's nice guy status. I think Seibold is a great guy, and honestly I'd like him as an assistant, but as the head coach he clearly has deficiencies. Everyone had already said that about Seibold before he came, and no one said that about Des before he left, and yet here we are.

Tried that the past two weeks. It doesn’t help much.
When you have a coach like Seibold that cooly and calmly gives the excuse that “the other side played stronger”after we held a healthy lead is pitiful.
Bellamy,Hasler,Stuart etc would not have been so tolerant.
They unceremoniously dumped Hasler because in the eyes of Penn,Mestrov and others Seibold was our premiership coach.
Bring back Toovey!!

Meh
Something like this (a potentially destabilising story) seems to come out from the media every time we are about to play the storm.
It's like the media...has an agenda!

I agree with you.
I believe they should’ve if possible kept Flanagan.
I’ve been disappointed with Seibolds demeanour at press conferences,where he calmly explains we were beaten by a better side,as an act of resignation.Bellamy,Hasler,Stuart etc would’ve been seething,not Seibold he is not bold enough.
I remember years ago when Manly would buy a player from the bush,not now.
Penn always goes for the budget buys.
Bring Toovey back!!
The more time passes the more I like having Mestrov running the club.. if Seibs doesn't turn this season around and we don't make the 8 he won't be getting an extension.. and he will be odds on for the next coaches head to roll if we are not at least 5 and 5 from 10rounds next year.
Forget an extension he may not see out 2025.
If he performs then he will have earnt an extension
The way out should be

I think it's a mindset mate. The problem with all that is everyone is entitled to their opinions as well, and nobody is right or wrong, we all just love our club in our own individual ways.
There are some fans, that remain content, upbeat and positive regardless of the results. There are others (like me), that get ridiculously emotional and unbalanced, and need to vent to release some of the pressure. Then there are fans, that no matter what the club does, it's perfect in every single way.
@XV-1 obviously wants, and he's decided to demand he wants something bigger and better for us. I actually also find him very supportive and positive when it comes to the club (well, we are ALL supportive tbh).
I think demonstrating someone is not putting up with the mediocrity, is what and how they vocalize things. How they watch the games. How plugged in, or turned off they are. How much they feel connected to the team. etc etc etc.
Anyways, I'm dribbling.
I just don't like people (others, not you) having a go at fans like XV-1, for wanting things to turn around. I honestly don't get it. I think that's where the term toxic positivity comes from.
