VOTE Anthony Seibold Discussion

[Renegade]

Does anyone else grow up disliking blokes like Fitzgibbon, Ryles, Ben Cross etc? I don’t think they’re a good fit for the Broncos. I want people to come here because they love the club, not for a pay check. Same goes for the players.

personally if they are a good coach i wouldn't care if they came from another planet. as long as they can make the club successful then that's all that really matters.

Nope. IMHO we need to get back to being the Brisbane Broncos and everything that means like when we first kicked off.
Playing for your home club has to mean something otherwise you basically have mercenaries.

What "promising performances on the field" is he talking about? Does he mean the interpretive dance routine in the warm-up? Because I would argue that is in the sheds and not on the field.

 

[Skyblues87]

So everything at Broncos is Hunky Dory.
Who would of thought that.

The biggest problem with our club at the moment is that the people in charge care more about this shit than winning games of footy

I think they mean promising for News Corp clicks as a result of us being a basket case.

News love the Broncos being shit as much as having a good year. We're the talk of the league for all the wrong reasons.

Using Covid as cover for the 'downturn' in things is not going to improve our on field performance.

He's talking about the women's team. Reading the rest of it you'd think the Broncos are some kind of indigenous outreach charity. The irony in that is from what I can see we've developed **** all indigenous players recently. We're verging on an Islander team these days, and they didn't exactly scour villages looking for them. Half of them went to private schools.

I actually think the exact opposite may be the way to go.

Seibold is the typical 'Queenslander who grew up supporting the Broncos and always wanted to play for them'.

We should completely throw out where a person comes from or who they supported as a kid, get the best man for the job. Get a man who won't wilt under pressure from the old boys. Won't take shit from the media because he's worried about the brand. Someone who has the balls to drop a club legend 12 months before a fan of the club would even consider it.

Yes I'm describing Michael Maguire, but I'm sure there's others out there if you look hard enough.

I feel like that works for every other club but non-Broncos fans grow up hating us. It just doesn’t seem like a good idea to bring in someone who despised us for over half of their life. What happens when they leave? Why would they want us to succeed for any other reason than money? Can they be trusted? It just doesn’t sit right with me. I’d be willing to settle for someone that we didn’t used to play against like Maguire, but the guys I listed don’t seem like a good fit.

I agree with Gus, I am worried about Seibold's mental health. He is copping it from all angles and just looks like a deer in the headlights, it will take a massive toll to have an entire city against you. I reckon he would be copping it in the streets too.

Because not everyone who isn't a Broncos fan hates us? Yes, some do. Some are apathetic, some respect us for what we stand for and everything in between. This mentality that people cannot live and breath something they didn't grow up loving is absurd. Many people can be highly professional and treat their job as their passion and legacy irrespective of the name on the door.

Craig Bellamy played against the Broncos in the second half of his career and has coached the Blues. Has every reason in the world to hate Brisbane / Queensland.

We ruling him out?

 

[Renegade]

the problem with keeping it in house means you have a very shallow talent pool to choose from, and it simply reinforces an old boys club which isn't a good thing.

it's good to recognize the past with past players and glories, but you can't wallow in them forever and have it prevent you from moving with the times.

'They've been in tears': Souths coach blames Wayne Bennett for family toll during coaching saga

South Sydney coach Anthony Seibold has "had a gutful" of Brisbane counterpart Wayne Bennett following his decision to stay with the Broncos, saying the saga has had an unnecessary impact on his children.

www.abc.net.au

"We've told the kids twice we're moving and then twice that we're staying. They've been in tears."

Must be worse for the Seibold household now then back when he officially got the gig.
Maybe the kids should persuade the old man to quit since he's almost at breaking point. Guaranteed crucifixion from the Storm coming this Friday.

He’s also spent his entire coaching career bending us over illegally both on and off the field. During negotiations too. I don’t dislike many more people in rugby league than Bellamy so this little gotcha moment didn’t quite work. I wouldn’t rule him out but I’d certainly not be very happy if he decided to come to the club now that Smith is close to retiring.

I’m sure you get my point, you’re just doing what you usually do. I want someone who loves the club to coach us, wouldn’t that be your preference too?
