any idea what time roughly?

The news is on now BV and it goes to around 5pm. Not sure but I think weather follows sport at the end so maybe 4:45ish, just guessing.

edit: it looked like a happy sit down chat so probably not major news incoming.

JFC, anytime Penn is in the news is a bad time for this club.

 

[EaglesDontTweet]

Update: Nine just said in Sport then coming up next??

reporter said big list of topics covered from the season.

 

[Bomb Voyage]

wow what an absolute bombshell snippet just delivered lol

edit: he just said things arent as bad as what is reported and doesn't agree (re players not liking the coach), and we have the team to compete for a premiership, we just have to go and do it ... haha

 

[EaglesDontTweet]

OK. Scott says they have the team in place for success. Things are never as bad as made out.
Full interview (apparently) on Nine news at 6:00.

I think I've been clickbaited!

Not sure what the point of an interview with an owner is. You could ask any of us fans what answer do you think Penn would give to a question like “are the players off Seibold?” and I guarantee 100% of fans would say what he said.If my memory serves me correctly,Penn does one of these interviews every year and he basically says the same thing every time,yet here we are premiership free for 14 years

He should never, ever have his head on television. Said it many times before, but whenever he feels the need for a media "charm offensive", we are well and truly f#cked. I would have been inclined to believe things aren't as bad as are being reported - except for the fact that Scott Penn just decided to grab his little place in the spotlight again to tell us things aren't as bad as are being reported. The guy is the kiss of death.

“It’s not as bad as it’s being reported”

So we lose a coach, have one reject us and we don’t punt the defensive coach….

We are all sweet people nothing to see here!

Did Scotty say Dymock is staying or something

 

[Brookie1973]

Just hope the journo asks him why excuses are now acceptable but they weren’t when Des was sacked.

Ok it was just on. Same points as before, said Seibold is here next year 100%, and they see him as our long term coach, and the thought of going to a head of football role is not happening. Want to keep Tom, tabled a 3 year deal.

Its a shame fluffy didnt say the dud has the full support of the board. 🙅

Penn is an absolute joke. The players don't believe in his coaching and don't want to play for him, the fans have had enough of him and this greedy owner won't do anything because he doesn't want to give him a payout. The only way this incompetent management will make a change is if we as the fans start taking action. Don't go to games at Brookvale, don't renew memberships, don't buy merch. The club is taking money out of our pockets and we as fans should be fed up!

For the sake of keeping Tom, I hope "Seibs is safe", just like how Hasler was staying "for as long as he wants" after the Pride Jersey.

Felt like an appearance just to keep the sponsors at bay. Like seriously? This is Frank Drebin levels of:

 

[MissKate]

Didn’t seibold come out and say he doesn’t intend on being a coach long term

Sounds like the left hand doesn’t know what the right hand is doing
