Apparently there’s no point voting, because there’s no point changing the coach until everything else changes. So we are stuck with Seibold until Penn cashes in his chips. I think that’s the logic.

I don't think so. The Dogs had the same management under Barrett that is currently succeeding with Ciraldo.
We have Peter Gentle I believe and apparently he’s highly thought of.
I’m not sure if they bother having guys in the country any more , League is struggling in these areas.
QLD cup is one area but loads of competition for the talent there.

Wolves are coming 8th out of 12 teams, so not so good.

…..I think it is more a case of why sack someone when you cannot come up with anyone better.
There seems to be only 3 choices
1 ex manly players with little or no coaching experience
2 non ex manly players with little or no coaching experience, or
3 sacked coaches or coaches no one else wants!
Just sayin’
Exactly

I don’t agree that there are no better options in the world of rugby league than Seibold. And we will have to find someone sooner rather than later, because even Seibold has indicated his heart is not in it past his current contract and wants to move into admin. Personally I would have no problem taking a punt on a young coach who has passion for the job, like what the bulldogs did in choosing Ciraldo over Barrett. Bellamy, Bennett, Cleary, Hasler, Ryan, Fulton, Gibson etc etc were all rookie coaches at some stage.

I’m not sure a young coach with passion is the answer… we gave Barrett a go he had passion, what about Ryles that doesn’t appear to he going too well … Benji.. plenty of passion …

I’d argue against the Ryles assessment.He has come in and made big changes,plenty of talented young players coming through and their game style has evolved as the season has gone on.Just looking at the ladder doesn’t tell you the whole story.

….didnt they say the same thing about Arthur?

Prefer young/passion to old/passionless. See current Hasler, Bennett. Not sure Barrett had passion, I remember plenty of blank stares and meaningless babble at many a press conference. Ryles is going ok.
Hasler was a young coach with passion when we appointed him in 2004. That turned out alright.
Anyway, the point of this thread is the poll, so let’s see how that ends up. I picked Ballin, but wouldn’t mind Arthur either. He knows the place and I think would give us a hard edge which we lack.
Hasler is 64. Craig Bellamy is 65 and there is not a more passionate coach in the NRL.
It's not age.

I’d be happy with Bellamy.

… I wasn’t sure whether to give you a ‘like’ or an ‘ optimistic’’

Maybe he’d like one final challenge before retiring? But I’d go “optimistic bordering on no chance in hell”.
If Manly could convince this guy to try his luck in the NRL ,I'd go for him

Billy goes well for QLD, but honestly he doesn’t have to coach, they are all elite , he just has to motivate.
I think he would be very different in a club role.
