The Sea Eagles have told their coach that contract talks are on hold after three straight losses. But Seibold insists he didn’t storm out of a meeting on the eve of a season-defining clash.
In rugby league, there can be many versions of the truth about the one story – it just depends on who you talk to.
Manly started the year like top-four contenders but have lost their last three matches by a combined nine points, as well asand are now outside the top eight. It’s the fine margins. Did Seibold storm out of the meeting with Mestrov, as reported elsewhere? He swears that wasn’t the case.“I’m very comfortable with where we’re at,” Seibold said on Thursday evening. “I love the club, I love the area. If I’m doing a good job, I would love to stay long term. That’s the reality of it.”.
Seibold is said to have admirers at the Eels, including head of football Mark O’Neill, but the coach’s only thinking is to build Manly back into an NRL powerhouse. Could he have his head turned? It seems unlikely. Moses’ relationship with the club undoubtedly helped him get Matt Lodge a one-year extension for 2024 after he ruptured his ACL just three games into his mid-season switch last year. The day after the game, Mestrov declared theyLodge completed his rehabilitation in quick time, came back in round seven, but is again out long term with a torn biceps suffered in Magic Round. He has no guarantee of a deal next season.
