From my perspective, Seibold is still dealing with attitude and culture issues Bennett failed to deal with effectively.
Hark your mind back to the last game of last year young Goat, your messiah could not get the team up for a knock out final.
Hark your mind back to the first five games of last season. 1st round comprehensively beaten by St George. 2nd round, bar for the goal post (dumb luck) we lose to the cowboys. 3rd round Tigers are pretty much ripped off by referee calls and we win a controversial game that should have gone the other way.
4th round, well beaten by the Titans. 5th round beaten by the knights. We should have been 0-5, and that was with the master coach.
It just reinforces it is only round 4 FFS.

That’s a good point and I do remember that. Pretty impressive to get to within 2 points of the minor premiers from that spot. I do hope Seibold can go one better.

Given the absolute crap we’ve been serving up the first 4 weeks, I’ve regrettedly picked the Tigers to win tomorrow. I’ll so far as to say that I hope we get murdered by them because then hopefully there will be no more excuses to drop ANY underperforming player to Q Cup (or worse!)

Fairly confident we will win, and win well.

I would love to be proven wrong but I’ve seen more consistently with my daughter’s U12 netball than with the Bronxs as of late.
Also a win will only put a bandage over a gaping wound that needs to addressed.

Don’t know if this is a coincidence or not but since the team was announced the price for this game has gone out from 1.40 to 1.45
I still think that is way to short though.

Dobbo (take a drink) confirmed that Haas will be playing and Shibasaki will drop out of the 17. If the same thing happens beyond this week, my guess is that it's a warning/reminder to Haas that, due to his actions, he is out of the 17 unless he turns up each and every week and puts in 110%, and cuts his shit out off the field. Apparently he is faultless at training anyway, but this is a good rocket to get him focused.
I don’t really care.
All off-season, you’ve bandied out the same narrative about Bennett and Seibold with literally no substance to back it up.
To paraphrase; Bennett is better because his record is better. Souths are going better than us this season. We’re 1-3, Seibold is no hope. Ad nauseam.
So let’s not compare the 2018 Broncos with the 2018 Rabbitohs (which you should be happy about, as Souths did better than us) and only compare the Broncos with themselves, apples with apples if you like.
Answer me this.
If we win tomorrow night, we start the season 2-3. That directly mirrors 2017 and even more so 2018.
In fact, last season we lost to the Knights, Titans, got flogged by the Dragons, only just beat the Tigers by scoring 9 points, none of which came from tries, and beat the Cowboys by 4 points.
Ergo, we win tomorrow night and you’ll obviously start singing from rooftops that Seibold is every bit as good as the bloke who coached the Broncos in 2017 and 2018...?
EDIT: sorry
lynx000 beat me to it. Great minds, apparently.

I think it's more than fair to criticise Seibold and the team right now, we haven't been good enough. I don't think it's fair to think after 4 games we can get a clear enough picture of where we might be at the end of the year. It's very early days yet.

I don't really care about any of what you just said then mate.
That’s not the least bit surprising either.
