A decade of failure goes hand in hand with a decade of Penn's incompetence and DCE's $$$ strangulation. Add in the wasted $$$ on the porcelain man and it's been a recipe for disaster that was always going to happen.

Really. What players in the current squad did des sign. It would be flat out being 4 or 5.
This ****show has been building since des was disrespected in 2010--11 and left.
We have had a revolving door of coaches and revolving door of CEO's it's time for a change of ownership.
When it comes to mismanaged NRL clubs we are the clear bronze medalist behind the tigers and dragons.

Put it this way then,how many in the squad did Seibold sign?
His last stint was 2018 to 2022. Only DCE and the Turbos were on contracts long enough not to at least have to he renewed in that time.

Scott Penn, the Justin Pascoe of Manly-Warringah.
Every single one of them ... signed or re-signed in the 4 years under Dessie ....
As far as players Dessie attracted to the club ... that would be Boyle, Harper, Aloaia and Kelma ....

The quality talent we want at the club don't want to come here unless we pay overs. Having DCE, Turbo and Jake taking alot of the cap we can't afford to pay overs so we either recruit discards or not upto 1st grade standard type players. 😔
Please ...
Perhaps look at it from a slighly different perspective...if you were a player off contract last year looking for a deal for 2023 and you look at the way we were playing, the coaching upheaval, the lack of strong recruitment over the past few years, the management mistakes (inclusive jersey etc) is it somewhere an in demand player would want to come to?
Btw I think we are heading in the right direction in 2023, just getting there with very small steps.

Maybe there might some cheapies in England where you can sell the Northern Beaches lifestyle. lol
Isn't that why they go to Canberra, for the warmer climate? 😉
My original post was simply a response to a member saying that Dessie only signed 4 - 5 of the current squad ... I replied that he had signed ALL of them ...
Why we haven't signed players ... or whether we are an attractive destination ... is not a topic I have been involved in ..
Just thinking aloud… could there be some friction between Seibs and Flanno? Could somebody be struggling to play a background role and getting a little itchy to run a team? Perhaps even a little sub-conscious sabotage? Hard to believe the team has played so poorly in the last two rounds with these two working together and given the start to the season and promise shown…

Sticky is in the wrong job, he should've been a real estate agent.

A bit hard for someone like Flanno to respect Seibs when you compare the credentials. The question would be why Scotty from Marketing allowed this to take place.
It sounded good in theory, and Seibs strikes me as the philosopher and potential idealist who would have swallowed the idea, while I dare say Flanno is a hard-nosed realist who will do anything to personally win.

I think the part about Flanno doing anything to win isnt far from the truth lol
Well, he has runs on the board with his past. It’s sad because I do see the idealism of the picture with the two working together. I just don’t see Flanno’s ego seeing it that way.
