It's happening: News LTD calls for Seibold sacking

[I bleed Maroon]

Don't get me wrong, that was a question, not so much a statement. Seibold has gotta go. I just wonder how long until people attack Kevvie.

Kevin Walters is a former legend and multi time premiership winner of the club, which means he knows what the culture should be. He would be coming in with a mile more rope to hang himself with than Seibold did coming off Bennett.

Kevvie comes in and we keep losing. How long until people call for his head as well?

Its a good point but the trick will be not offering him a 5 year contract until its earnt...

I think Geoff Toovey would be a good option of available coaches.

Except Toovey has his business down here in Sydney unfortunately.

As much as I want this guy gone, this isn't a good look whatever happens. He should never have been hired in the first place, whatever success happened at Souths was presumably because of MacGuire's established roster and systems (and momentum). If it is true that Seibold 'white anted' him, then this is karma. He will never get another serious coaching gig, but will be crying all the way to the bank anyway. (Unless, I dunno, some kind of truly gangster shenanigans went on behind the scenes. Waking up with a horse's head in his bed one night ala the Godfather maybe, that would be nice and poetic. Talking a few million bucks here, stranger things have happened over less $.)

But who would take a big coaching deal at the broncos from here on out, on a long term contract, if they know that one bad run of half a dozen games can mean the end for them? Contracts in the NRL become more of a farce every season.

Oh, and here's hoping for a tell all book from Seibs spilling whatever beans he collected in his short and forgettable stint.

Lessons learnt: PowerPoint presentations are not a good indicator of competence.

Cause kevvie won’t come in... Not saying that kevvie won’t get the job but there not gonna chuck him/them in the deep end right now most likely Kurt Richards will coach for the rest of the season and either kevvie or the chosen replacement will take over

He's a whizz on that powerpoint, though. Harvard!!! I get weak at the knees just at the sound of that word.

forgettable stint

It won’t be forgotten for a long time.

 

[Highwayman]

It won’t be forgotten for a long time.

It doesn't begin and end with Seibs though. He's a symptom, ultimately. Same thing caused the signing of Boyd.

They'd be silling to have the assistant take over, nothing will change at all. Kevvie or bust right now. That or try and get Brad Thorn, hell why not both.

Toovey said he had approached warriors on 360 so I I think Brisbane won’t be an issue. Sound like he wants to coach again

 

[TheGreatCornholio7]

id just like to see us train defence for a week.....dont worry about structures and set plays...

defend defend defend....just practice that...

but....what do I know....

Agree, they should not be touching a ball, the training should consist solely of defensive drills and fitness. If they won't earn their money on the field make them earn it on the training paddock.

 

[simplythebest]

While I think Toovey is a good coach and would do a good job, I can't stand the thought of Manly scum in a Broncos shirt.

... and we have a great (new) defence coach, publicly available ... for free.

There would need to be an investigation, but I think it would be all good.

I’m gonna have to change the rating I gave you on the BHQ survey after this stinker

So, who's fault is it?
