First coach sacked 2026

[wittyfan]

Todd Payten already topping the power rankings.

 

[Phil McGrawhan]

I’m not religious at all but last yr I prayed to every know god i could think of that this useless bald pretending hopeless crap coach would be sacked .
maybe the Cows board will wake up soon so this season is not another write off

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Seibold, hopefully.

 

[Valheru]

Payten and Siebold seem to be the only realistic options.

Flanno if things go real shit but he seems to get the most out of the talent he has there.

 

[Dogs Of War]

Seibold, hopefully.

I would like Manly to sign him to a 5yr contract extension. Let him win the first 4 games so that happens.

Then announce his extension at halftime in Manly's ANZAC Round clash?

The cowboys are traditionally very conservative with coach sackings but Payten must be $1.05 atm

I dare say they’ve already had a conversation with Willie Peters manager

Willie Peters will also have PNG in their ear. And PNG will guarantee him 5yrs (6 if you get him onboard next year to build the team) with no expectations of success, that's a long term project. Did I mention potentially tax free. Not sure if it applies to coaches.

For the love of Laurie Spina please be the bald fraud in Tvl.

Here from Jubilee Ave. Sane world it'd be Flanagan. But we extended him. So that's why we'll be seeing you from around 15th for the next few years. Sure you're used to that angle though.

 

[Canard]

With Payten its not a matter of if, its when.

The Wests Tigers got ultimate revenge on us by subjecting us to 5 years of this dickhead.

 

[Fangs]

The paintman once again comes out of the blocks running.

The Cows have a top 8 squad. Its good enough to challenge the 4. Missing the 8 should see him finish at the Cowboys and replace Benji at the Tigers when he gets boned in the future.

I have a feeling Benji Marshall will have life tenure at Wests Tigers similar to Ricky Stuart at Canberra.

Power rankings after Round 1:

Payten
Siebold
Ryles

 

[Diesel]

Ryles would be safe, the other 2 didn’t do themselves any favours this week. Manly giving up a 14 point lead

If sydney media get their way it will be Madge, it’s beyond ridiculous now.

Ive never known a coach to cop it so much just months after winning a comp.

It’s bizarre. They are actively hoping he fails.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Well you wouldve thought winning a comp would take the pressure off for a while, but unfortunately hasnt it, when you compare to other coaches that havent won for a while or at all.

 

[Chimp]

How is Madge getting more grief than Robinson?.

Madge won the comp last year - Robinson has a better overall squad, has made some very questionable recruitment/retention decisions and have basically done nothing for a good few years now, and started very poorly in Round 1. Why no noise?
