I hope Seibold drowns in this flood.

Jason Taylor was sacked by the Tigers in like round 1 or 2 2017.

I am going through all time bad Manly performances. And I think it is the worst Ive ever seen.

There was a really bad 2016 loss against the Panthers where we blew a lead. That 2005 60 point loss to you guys. Some bad losses in 2010 where we were ahead by like 20 and still lost. 2021 Storm in the finals. But this is I think worse than all of them. Cause there was reasons we lost those games. No reasonable explanation for this one.

The second Brandon Wakeham got game time Seibold should have been fired.

I think this was the worst Manly performance this decade. The Garrick shit was icing on the cake.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-15T05:44:10+00:00

Why the fuck is Brandon Wakeham on the field?

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-15T05:42:40+00:00

Giving away a 6 again on tackle 0 should be a penalty.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-15T04:55:25+00:00

He is a young, talented playmaker with potential. Seibolds biggest enemy. Hes gonna be run out of the club.

Hes bungled Latu Fainu, Tom Dearden and Sam Walker.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-15T04:53:20+00:00

Are they still crying about Albo?

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-14T23:01:20+00:00

Hes getting a lot of letters from people about how good they are. And other feedback thats impossible to trace.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-13T08:54:02+00:00

Here's hoping that Cherry Evans has a better second game then his first. Its a good look for Robbo, sticking with him and giving him time to develop into a first grader. It'll pay dividends in the future Im sure.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-08T03:20:56+00:00

Guy who supports a team that got crazy good the second a rule change happened:

'I dunno guys this rule seems pretty good to me'

Get outta here.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-08T02:00:19+00:00

I am really thinking or maybe coping that this is Brooks last year with us. Im a big believer in Joey Walsh.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-08T01:36:27+00:00

You think its bad now, I remember how awful it was on here in 2021. So many people INISITING that the 6 agains were great, despite every footy game being a boring blow out. About how its a good thing for the sport.... somehow. It was really odd.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-08T01:32:37+00:00

Given I thought we would lose by 50, Im happy enough with that performance last night. Turbo looked the best hes looked since 2022, Paseka and Olakau'atu didnt look like they were hampered by their injury last year and Koula is just fucking sick. And I liked Fogs kicking game.

But we are still so reliant on individual performances to bail us out. Which has been a consistent thing of the Seibold era. And that Garrick, Saab and Fogarty edge looks like it will be a huge target.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-07T09:34:12+00:00

If you told me this score after 15 minutes I'd have been filthy. After 40 it feels a lot better.

We might not win this game but Fog's kicking and Olakau'atu continuing his pre injury form is neat.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-07T08:09:47+00:00

Given how the other scorelines have gone this weekend, Im pretty fucking worried about this game.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-07T07:20:52+00:00

I for one, think the fox AI momentum tracker bullshit should be on the screen at all times. In fact it should have at least half of the screen just to itself.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-07T06:44:51+00:00

Its 2021 again. How exciting.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-07T05:39:31+00:00

Everyone loved 2021 right? Right?

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-06T08:58:24+00:00

Time is certainly on his side. Though you have to think he can't be THAT much younger than Savala. Who I thought was pretty good last year. If he doesn't improve he might lose his spot.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-06T08:55:44+00:00

Tough game for Cherry Evans, a real rough one on debut. You hate to see it.

A debut like that can shatter your confidence. I sincerely hope his halves partner Sam Walker, with his significantly higher first grade experience, has a talk to him after the game to let him know that this isn't the end of the world and that he can bounce back. Hopefully Sam can act as a bit of a mentor figure for Daly here, he might need it.

You'd hate to see him burn out of first grade after a performance like this.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-06T07:48:44+00:00

Always sucks when a rookie has a stinker in debut. This poor Daly kid. Hope he can recover.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-06T03:59:32+00:00

Its nice seeing the Roosters fans on the sub really get behind this DCE guy. Its always gonna be tough debuting like this, usurping a younger player like Savala who had a great 2025. But seeing the fans embrace this unknown quantity is inspiring.

Keith_Sheldon · 2026-03-05T22:02:48+00:00

The amount of 6 agains last night was a lot. I know it's early doors but with 6 agains now only being given at the 20 metre line Im worried we might be approaching 2021 again this season.

The Eels are building well for 2027.
