PRE-GAME Round 15 - Knights vs Broncos

Carrigan hasn't even played that much to really need a break. I'm sorry Wolfie, I hope he turns out to be a gun, but he's been a bit of a disappointment so far. He seems a bit behind a few other 21 year olds in terms of development so far. Maybe just a late bloomer.
 
Piss weak selections by Seibold.
Shit recruitment.
Shit use of our new recruits too.

1/10 coaching performance this year.

Grow some balls and make some real decisions Seibold. Dropping a winger in his second year doesn't count.

When you're sitting 13-14 on the ladder and persist with virtually the same 17 it's pretty stupid.
 
I'm absolutely astounded.
After a disgusting loss to Parra and the benefit of a week off, we all said on here this would be the line in the sand moment and time for Seibold to reset the team.
Can't believe that 17... Actually going backwards by reinstating Macca.

Bennett never made the tough decisions either (at least not for the last 4 years)

Well there goes our season as Seibs is unable to make the hard decisions. I have a work colleague that knows Seibs when he was his maths teacher at school. I asked him if he tough but fair on the students. His reply - “Not really, too much of a pushover and doesn’t really like the tough decisions.”

Case in point. I hate myself but I’m going tip against us as I’m only 2 points away from the real prize - winner of the BroncosHQ tipping comp for 2019.

What “tough decisions” would he have visibly not made as a maths teacher?

Yeah it's not good. Let's hope the club is writing this season off (we can't win the comp) and are eyeing off a class FB (Ponga, Holmes, or the Turbo combo. The last option would be ideal but will never happen) and are trying to find retirement homes for Macca and Boyd.

Another thing I don’t like is TPJ at 13. He plays better off the bench as an impact player. I’m afraid Seibs is turning him into a Moose 2.0.

If TPJ took some notes off SST and ran the ball hard every carry instead of being afraid of contact or going for some ridiculous offload he'd be the best forward in the game bar none.

EDIT: that's not to say that he should shelve the offload Wayne Bennett style, but he needs to think about running the ball and making meters first.

Exactly what I think.

If Darius is an honourable man and truly loves the club he will hang up the boots between now and round 1 2020.

Really weird signing when you look at it.

Q. What's the most simultaneously injured/unavailable forwards we have had this year?
A. 2

A. 5

It wasn't a weird signing, but the circumstances in which he would be required have, quite unexpectedly, not materialised yet.

I still think the likes of Carrigan and Flegler need a spell away from the NRL just to stop them getting burned out. I really do think we are handling some of these younger blokes poorly, but in a few positions we don't have any depth to rest them

Add Fifita to the list aswell imo

I think it's weird. We clearly have very little intention of using him. We already have Tagatese who offers the same kind of option. Why even bother signing him?

Tagataese and Fensom are vastly different players, and of the two Fensom has more present day value.
