Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3108181, member: 9853"] [B]Badel a[/B]nd [B]Honnery [/B]hand the mic to [B]Gordon Tallis[/B] in today's [I]Courier Mail: [B]Tallis[/B] opened the tirade at Tuesday’s Fox League launch: "[/I]Last year, Seibold didn’t get the full pre-season because him and Wayne (Bennett) swapped so I get all that. But now he’s had the full pre-season so there’s no excuses this year. Absolutely the pressure is on them (to win it this year). The Broncos are a big brand. They’ve got a $30 million facility. They’ve got big crowds. They talk about their rich history, and they win competitions. This year, there’s going to be more of spotlight on Brisbane.” [I]Next up, [B]Cooper Cronk[/B] piled on:[/I] “Anthony Seibold was in a predicament last year with his halves. The biggest challenge for the Broncos in 2020 is to put all that talent, skill and individual ability together and row in the same direction.” [I]And finally [B]Michael Ennis[/B] mocked [B]Siebold's[/B] “overcoached statistical rubbish[/I]:" “Anthony is one of the modern coaches in the game, one of the younger ones coming through. He is intelligent and has a lot of information he relies upon. He talks a lot about percentages on ball control and tackle efficiencies, all these sorts of things and that’s great as a coach but in terms of people sitting at home watching the team, they want to see performance and they want elite performance. They demand success. They had some terrific moments last year and they made the finals, but in terms of where they can be with the roster they’ve got, they should be pushing for the top four.” [I]In reponse,[B] Coach Seibold[/B] smacked them down with a series of stinging buzzphrases from the Harvard Team Building for Beginners Guide:[/I] “I’ve put that to bed, we’ve moved on. There’s no doubt last year was a challenging year for everyone at the club. Any time there is that much change in a short period of time … we changed the coach, there was a change of systems, there were a number of changes in our playing group and that creates instability. One thing we are working hard on is building greater connections and building cohesion within our group. The squad is in a really good place at the moment, everyone is working hard, I find peace of mind putting changes in place and implementing a really well-planned pre-season.” McHunt [/QUOTE]
