Message: [QUOTE="Crazy Sam, post: 3126081, member: 1751"] The loss was sad, and I was never particularly sold on Seibold as a coach, but I'm not prepared to dump it all on him at the moment either. The worst part of the losses has been how easily we drop the ball, but I've still felt a lot worse many times over the past 20 years when we were losing games with teams that were far more experienced but with a lower ceiling for potential than the one that played last night. I can see how Seibold is wanting the shape the team, but it is hard when he's been hamstrung by some horrible player deals that were in place before he arrived and take up so much cap space (Boyd, Kahu, Bird). With how young our team is even at full strength, we simply can't be missing 5-6 of our best players like we are at the moment and expect to win games against the top teams. By far the biggest issue the Broncos have had over the past 10 years is that we haven't had a proper, solid, peak-of-their-game Origin-standard 1, 6, 7 or 9 since Lockyer retired. You could easily argue that none of our spine are even in the top 5 in their positions across the NRL and haven't been for the last 3-4 years. Until we have the cap space available to address that, and one or two Origin-standard players in those positions willing to come to the Broncos, I don't know that things will change much. [/QUOTE]
