Sack Spoony Siebold

[frank stokes]

Was an interesting quote from Seibs on Guac to the Fox Sports crew tonight…

“Huamole, when he wants to play like he did tonight, is one of the very elite backrowers in the competition. I feel like he has closed the gap between his best and his worst and he was a real handful tonight”

This has always been my issue with Guac, the guy is an absolute beast but some games he just looks disinterested or does not seem to be making the effort that we all know he is capable of…

You'll give him credit if 'he can get us up for the next few weeks', great....
But no credit so far, even after a gutsy win tonight?
If you do give him any credit for Manly playing well tonight, how about taking a break from using the Spoon moniker? You can always bring it back when the team plays crap but tonight it just feels wrong.

No, I give him credit for tonight. Probably the best win of the season. I don't think Tony gives a shiit about me referring to him as Spoony. He's living the dream and making a lot of cash doing it. When he actually wins a competition, something he is yet to do in any grade, I will replace the moniker. But as of right now his cupboard is bare except for the spoon he acquired while at the Broncos.

Also, I never posted I'd only give him credit if he got us up over the next few weeks. Just that I'd get the carton of eggs out and prepare a nice big Tony S omelette for myself to eat.

The worry is Paseka sounds similar to this. Look at haas last night.

The problem,in some ways,is that Olakau’atu is a back rower being used like a front rower.Is it any wonder some weeks he looks knackered or “disinterested”.He plays 80 minutes as opposed to the 30-50 minutes most front rowers play

 

[JakeyB789]

Our next 4 games are Knights, Titans, Tigers and Souths. Realistically we shouldn’t be losing any of those so the real test for Seibold now is if he can get us up for more than one week in a row

I don't think its looking knackered ... I made the comment a few weeks back that he looked disinterested / uninspired and probably wouldn't be picked for SOO .... tonight he was at his awesome best again .... attitude seems an issue for many of the games stars ... getting 100% from a player is where a great coach shines over a good coach .... imho

i would imagine that Broncos fan site would have a sack Madge thread by now….

They do.

And they have a rebuild thread as well.

I tried reading hq pre game but you can’t view without signing up. The cross forum thing Dan did a few years back was good.

 

[Ralphie]

A shoutout to the Seibold Scavengers on here, for their pep talk to the coach during the week.

He obviously listened and coached better this week.

We thank you.

He is still utter rubbish. One good win at home against rubbish opponents changes nothing, good grief 🤦‍♂️

He reminds me a lot of Tony Williams in that regard.

I really do not want to agree with you…

I recall a game (a semi I think) that big TW pretty much won by himself… he was simply untackleable (yes, it’s a word… now)

Some of those are Origin effected games so not going to be easy as it looks

Who’s playing Origin though?DCE at this stage,but rumours were spreading he’ll be dropped.Last night may of helped him though

Noted my man. And we thank you for the further encouragement of the coach.

 

[Budgie]

Corner turned.

Seibs has ditched the white shirt, blue jacket number for, as it always should have been, Manly gear.

Onward and upward!

Well Titans will definitely be missing Tino. Perhaps even more. Souths will be without Trell.

It’s more that we’ve shown an inability to win those Origin effected matches, even when the ledger is balanced. Jake Arthur is not up to it.

Hopefully, Tony will go with someone else. Joey Walsh perhaps.
