NRL 2025

Lomax no, but I reckon if you swapped teams with Bostock and Kiraz, then Bostock would get recognized more. Maybe that's due to me also not being a fan of Kiraz too.

there are some absolute spud coaches in the NRL who just keep getting jobs.
Seibold has a full strength Manly side losing to the Knights and the Titans in back to back weeks. There is absolutely no heart in the Sea Eagles at all.
Shane Flanagan is doing nothing with the Dragons at all. They are just a nothing side going nowhere.
AOB has the Knights firmly in spoon contention with one of the worst attacks you will ever be unfortunate to see.
Todd Payton is taking the Cowboys backwards, with terrible selecting, awful retention, and obviously bad motivation as they just do not look like they want to play for him.
Des got a win, somehow, with an under-manned Titans but they remain rooted to the bottom of the ladder.

And it looks like the first one to go, surely for the last time (though Trent Barrett keeps getting jobs i guess) will be at Manly.
Seibold got something very close worded to the "full support of the Board" which means the end is nigh. Apparently a crisis meeting was held yesterday where the coach told all the players the many different ways they are shit. Turbo is getting shifted to the centres, and a couple of guys will be playing NSW-Cup this week.
It's coming.

Plenty more coaches should be looking over their shoulders too but aren't.....
Manly's in a bad spot. Tommy Turbo has lost his speed and can barely run compared to what he used to, DCE is done and at this rate, will struggle to find another gig, Jake is slowing down at an alarming rate, Olo'kolatu has had a bad year so yeah, things are looking rather bleak.
-
Disagree on Olakau'atu i think he's been their best player.
But the other 3? Yes. And between them that's a looooot of cap space. Tommy T is done, he just cannot sustain a gallop. Jurbo was never quick and has got markedly slower. DCE is just not playing well, doesn't appear to be competing as hard, and is marked hard for it after his whole contract situation (if the Roosters dump a good young half for this bloke they have rocks in their heads).
They lost their best middle for the year as well.
Of all the job openings that should come up, this is probably the best one.
