Post-Game Discussion Tigers V Manly [Round 24, 2025]

[Brookie1973]

This side has progressively gone backwards each season under the current coach. There are no signs of anything strategically in place to evolve this club. The current standard being trundled out is embarrassing & reminiscent of where the Tigers fell to in recent years. The difference? They are now improving & we have fallen to a level I can't recall. Penn must take action if he has any respect for the club.

Agreed. We have clearly thrown all our eggs in the “premiership window” basket/mirage. Now the cupboard is bare, awaiting a wooden spoon.

First time I've ever deathridden the club in 36 years. But the only way Spoon goes is if we lose all games from here out. Total capitulation required. Then a cleanout.

DCE leaving can't come soon enough.

DCE quit playing footy early this year, and now the rest of the team has quit as well. That’s what cancer does.
Look at DCE attack without Huomole….its a joke. & That has been the case for years.
Since DCE defending is often a farce, he should be dropped…..but I’d prefer he plays at 9 & he’s forced to “defend” in the middle the rest of the season. He clearly avoiding injury - by not defending, so throw him in the middle.
DCE is an Anti-team turd.

I’ll be expecting apologies for calling at DCE as manly’s greatest ever fraud. Been saying this for years.

If we apply the same “results driven business” criteria that we used to sack Des, then Seibold should be clearing his desk tomorrow morning.

This exact reasoning was made by Penn when they removed Tooves back in ‘15. I wished Penn practiced what he preaches.

@Chuck i agree with your sentiment but we won’t have to tank as we are such a bunch of hopeless strangers it’s just Koula hasn’t worked this out yet and still turns up.

We will be lucky to snag a win from here and that’s lot on the Captain and Coach.

Must say, amongst the smouldering ruins Atkins didn't do us any favours, hammered in the 6agains and penalties.

To be fair to Atkins though,bit hard for him to do favours when he wasn’t the ref or in the bunker

Gee that’s no good

57% possession to Tigers certainly didnt help

All good mate, I’m sorry, couldn’t help myself

So now that we’ve officially got no hope of playing finals, surely just go for a different team list next week and give our youngsters some experience. Walsh in the halves, Laiafi in the forwards. I’d put Koula at FB, Faulalo on the wing. Just try some things, got nothing to lose.

Unfortunately DCE will keep his starting spot to close out the year, of course he will. That one is unrealistic but I hope we see some unique changes.
