The Rumour that we hear everywhere

[LeonardCohen]

Could be, but as you know highly talented representative players don’t need as much coaching as the not so experienced players.

For me the senior players have let themselves and the club down this season with their on field form and efforts, look at the two most highly paid players defensive efforts over the last month.

They’re the defensive efforts you get when you no longer want to be there and/or are busted.

For the temporally challenged - the rumoured order of events:

1. 3 senior players complained they weren't happy with Seibold - date unknown;

2. the club extends Seibold - on 16th December 2024, according to the club's website:

Sea Eagles extend Anthony Seibold to end of 2027​

Manly Warringah Sea Eagles have today extended the contract of Head Coach Anthony Seibold for a further two years.

www.seaeagles.com.au

3. DCE requests an early release - reportedly in the 2024 pre-season (i.e. end of 2023 going into 2024).

Can anyone see a chronological error in that sequence of events?

Also, if the players were so unhappy with Seibold as coach way back then (pre-2024 season), how did we end up in the finals last year?

So now we've got all the media circle jerk clowns piling in on Manly saying it's a toxic place to be and $CE will be better off at the rorters next year. SO WHO THE FU*K caused the so called TOXIC environment in the first fu*king place. Unbelievable the absolute bullsh*t trail these circus clowns leave behind them. Buzz, Johns, Cronk, Reid, Anasta etc they can all go and get fu*ked. One person has caused this sh*t mess show and now on a $1mil+ a year he's kicking stones and spat the dummy!!! Fu*ksake you are kidding with this sh*t. I cannot wait to see the backend of $CE.

All I know from watching every game this year is the 3 players reportedly complaining (DCE, Tom & Jake) have been crap for the most part all season. The 1 guy in the background creating the most drama in Anthony Watmough has also been crap at his job & fighting to avoid the spoon in Flegg after getting spanked by last place Silktails on the weekend - whoever that is.

DCE has been so bad that most people think he should retire. Jake can’t even make 50 run metres in 80 minutes & Tom looks more worried about preserving his body than saving tries. All 3 have went from origin starters when healthy to completely dropped in 12 months. They should have been more worried about their awful performances on the field instead of trying to decide what’s best off it.
