Jason Saab
He was absolutely disgraceful tonight. The defence for the first Dragons try was atrocious. Then, we just needed him to dive on the ball and shut down a Dragons possession with the clock dying down and he just stood and looked at the ball bounce up and hit his arm; just terrible. Imagine that...- LeonardCohen

Season over: so, what did we get from it?
Like you, I was aligned in keeping Seibs around, but that’s changed for mine. I don’t think we’ll suddenly rocket up the ladder with a new coach but I don’t think it gets better with Seibs either; just more of the same if reports are true that the players aren’t backing him. I get the...- LeonardCohen

Season over: so, what did we get from it?
Simpkin’s defence is a real worry though. Opposition middles pick him out and love destroying the middle of our ruck. He’s willing but not all that effective. I prefer his attack to Croker but even that’s limited. He gives decent service and has a dart but I’ve noticed he often gets the ball in...- LeonardCohen

Sack Seibold Immediately
I backed Seibs for the better part of two and a half seasons but I want him gone now and not because of results or position on the ladder; we’re middle of road and that happens…rather, it’s because of reports about the players not believing he is the answer, paired with reports he is keen to...- LeonardCohen

All NRL Games [Round 26, 2025]
Yeah I always laugh when the ‘it’s rigged’ excuses come out. If it was rigged, you can bet Penrith don’t win four competitions in a row and the Tigers don’t win three spoons. Not to mention, 100s of stakeholders would need to be complicit, unless you believe that V’Landy’s meets the referees...- LeonardCohen

Sack Seibold Immediately
I haven’t selectively quoted your post. You asked me if Walsh, Large and co. represent an investment in youth and I don’t think they do. I believe Seibold chased older heads (Brooks, Lodge, Brown, and co.) for experience, not because he was hamstrung by the cap or biding his time. Sure, he...- LeonardCohen

2026 recruitment & retention
Moale is a gun. It’s a shame we couldn’t land Mooney. If we could have got Mooney and Moale as a pair, suddenly we look much better. My concern is one will not be enough to turn us around.- LeonardCohen

Sack Seibold Immediately
No I don't. They're just the good players in our pathways systems; every club has 3 or 4 guns. That's not an investment in youth, that's just par for the course across every club in the NRL; there's so much more to it than that. An investment in youth is anything but apparent when you wind up...- LeonardCohen

Sack Seibold Immediately
I totally agree that Seibold’s biggest failing is recruitment. I get that he hasn’t had cap space to really go after some big fish but the panacea to that issue should have been an investment in youth. Instead, he went after the likes of Aaron Woods, Nathan Brown, Matt Lodge, and kept guys like...- LeonardCohen

All NRL Games [Round 26, 2025]
I knew why they were doing it…that wasn’t the discussion. It was the AFL comparison ‘that didn’t make perfect sense’ because it’s comparing apples and oranges in terms of what’s a good look and what’s not. I have no issue with the NRL adopting a similar approach and having a week’s break; I just...- LeonardCohen

All NRL Games [Round 26, 2025]
The AFL comparison you’ve made, makes no sense. If they all have a week off, there’s no ‘bad look’ because there’s nothing to look at?! The issue is that there’s a fixture and because of the team list, less and less people are going to compelled to watch the game. For a game that is...- LeonardCohen

Pre-Game Dragons V Manly[Round 26, 2025]
Yeah it was better than Thursday night. The start of the working week is a bit depressing so some footy gave us something to enjoy. By Thursday, you’re in the throes of work and it doesn’t have the same impact on the dynamic of the week.- LeonardCohen

Will Croker be back?
Saab is our weak link. He should be depth only. I’d pick Talau on the wing ahead of him next season when Garrick returns. He has no football brain. He is the guy that will offer some highlights down the flank against the Titans and Tigers, but those plays determine the ‘by how much’ against...- LeonardCohen

Because he’d rather go to the four time premiership winning Panthers than Manly. Players and managers are pretty savvy these days. Go to club on less money/train and trial/minimum wage and develop in a good system and score a big contract down the track vs getting a little bit more now to stay...- LeonardCohen
