Manly fans criticizing Anthony Seibold should reflect; he previously led the team to finals amid significant challenges.
The Manly fans - and I use that term loosely - who spent Thursday night chanting for the head of Anthony Seibold need to take a good hard look in the mirror.
Seibold and the Sea Eagles are three games into their season and it appears the crisis merchants want him gone
This is a coach who only 18 months ago took the club into the second week of the finals. Last year, they were one win away from playing finals football with a side that spent the year dealing with the fallout from the Daly Cherry-Evans fiasco as well as the absence of their two highest-paid players -Jake and Tom Trbojevic - for a quarter of the season.
They opened this season with a loss to Canberra in a game they could have easily won. Granted, they were shocking against Newcastle, but no one aside from Penrith maybe would have beaten the Sydney Roosters on Thursday night.
In shocking conditions, the Roosters completed at 94 per cent. Their discipline has been their bugbear this season but they only gave away three set restarts and no penalties.
