What’s going wrong with us?

He didnt have his own team at Souths, but he did ok there. Just wondering why you might think he would be capable of moulding a side? His coaching record has been fairly mediocre apart from last year. In fact, i think one of his rivals for the Broncos job, Jason Demitriou has pretty much out coached him at every level apart from NRL ( i know thats the big one, 1 1910 could probably give some great background here though about JD's coaching compared to Seibs).

I've lost a lot of faith in our coach right now. I really dont think he needs to rebuild this team. A few tweaks here and there and maybe next year a couple of key players is all it would take.

I'm not totally sure mate. I remember him there a few times i saw them, then i remember he was in a 3 way battle for the spot but lost out to Barba i think in their premiership winning year.

I think fullback is suited to him on the offensive side of the ball but I'd be worried about him defusing the kicking game of halves nowadays who have an array of variations to rain down.

The obvious floating bombs that trouble many, but also following the play for grubbers, kicks off the posts, dinky chips into no man's land, bombs aimed at the cross bar, defending 40/20, etc.

It doesn't take much to dent someone's confidence and it also only takes 1 game of struggling against the kick for the opposition to start letting them fly with confidence in the fullback's perceived weakness

I'm not as anti Boyd as a lot on here, so I typically feel confident in him defending against the kick although I think he succumbs too easily nowadays by hitting it dead, running it across the sideline or not attacking the ball.

Just out of curiosity, do you think Michael McGuire would’ve been a good option if we didn’t go with Seibold?

Yeah I think so. The tigpies beat us with a far inferior squad.
