Rabbitohs rumours, signings, injuries etc

[Galeforce]

Agree about Kennar, his mind is elsewhere and definitely not on footy.

Kennar looked before getting injured. I would go on that form , not on his form when re returned from injury.

Anyway , I have always thought he could make a good backrower transition.....he has the size/build for a bullocking backrower............given we are strong on outside backs and thin on backrowers , I believe that is where Kennar will head in 2019 (if he stays with souths)

 

[handyman2190]

Seibs has consistently said that he will be coaching Souths in 2019.

Not if he goes to broncos in 20 we dont want him ,i agree with the club, knowing he is leaving destabilizes our team,id rather send him on his way and sign demertriou

You agree with the club?? With regards to what?

Completely agree and that’s why Richo won’t tolerate it. We won’t be kicked around.

He’s either staying or he’s gonski pronto.

Imo we actually aren’t strong in outside backs. Play Kennar in back row and you’ve only

AJ
Graham
GI
Gagai
Jennings (if he stays rumours are Rorters want him)

Allen
Burns


That’s about it. From what I’ve heard Hiroti isn’t yet up to regular first grade.

Douiehi will not be there for first couple of months of season.


I reckon Kennar will remain as a depth option in the backs.

His defence is solid but I don’t think he could handle all the defensive workload in back row.

Can't send him on his way without paying him out and that is not acceptable financial management.

It may have to be southy, maybe we can do a switcheroo bennet and junr for seibold then no one gets paid out. It isnt good to pay any one out but we are hog tied no choice

Let's just wait and see what happens first, the club apparently have a "plan B" that they seem to happy with if it needs to be implemented.

According to ninemsn Furner is the backup plan as he has a get out clause.

But why would you even think that the club is pressuring him? Giving him an ultimatum? Not tolerating it? Because the lurker said so??

Ohhhh come on, you people don’t believe him or the daily telegraph etc do you???

Oh, you do???

Not a big fan of Furner as a coach

 

[Vic Mackey]

As a Wests fan who’s gone/going through the Cleary shit I think it’s pretty poor what seibold is doing to you guys. Still at least it’s liklely to be sorted in the offseason and not be a major story right before a must win game.

Furner seems an odd choice. He had a very good roster at the Raiders for a number of years and didn’t even make the semis twice in a row. There was also a lot of issues with off field behavior during his time there. Really think someone like Demitriou or OBrien would be a better fit.

Jason Taylor is more of a chance then Bennett to coach you guys. One of my best mates Dad was on the board of Souths Juniours when Bennett left Saints to newcastle in 2011/12. There’s bad blood there as Souths we’re under the impression they had Wayne, then he flipped and went to Newie when Tinkler upped an offer at the last minute. From what I’ve been told Wayne could rock up to Redfern groveling and offer to coach for free and wouldn’t be given the gig.

What’s he doing to us?

Well Seibs is showing zero loyalty. He’s thrown it in our face.

We give him his first chance as head coach and he does this after a season...

All this shit saying he’s got a contract with the Rabbitohs and all this shit well I could see through it the whole time. It did affect the playing group too and that’s when the wheels started falling off. I also @southsport questioned throughout the year re his passion for the Bunnies. He doesn’t have a true passion. His true passion is in QLD. He’s taken us for a ride. Piss off now I say.

On Bennet no thank you don’t want him.

Re Furner he has been assistant past couple of years and this year he really overall did a pretty good job with our attack. He’s very analytical and a good family man. He has passion for what he does and I feel he is more invested in Souths than Seibs has ever been.

We will be rebuilding a bit next season and I expect Furner to come under fire but he can only do what he can. Our depth next season ain’t what it was this year.

My first preference would’ve been for Adam O’Brien though who has been schooled under Bellamy.

Oh man, I'm not saying I 100% believe the rumours about Seibs because I'm hearing others that he'll stay but that is pretty guttering to hear as I want him to stay so, so bad! I have a feling he's gonna go though which will be really shattering for me personally.

It’s common sense dude.

The pre season is about to start. Of course it’s gonna be sorted before then.

It isn’t just the lurker reporting it either it’s everywhere.

I think he’s gone bro and was going all along.

I’ve had this feeling in my gut tbh.

His true loyalty isn’t to Souths I don’t think. You could feel from his press conferences and all all along bro. Well I could anyway.

Thanks for nothing Seibs.

Financial side of things @southsport do not worry we have Rusty.

 

[southsport]

There has been discussion elsewhere that makes me suspect that all this talk of Furner taking the head coach position at Souths as nothing more than media speculation.

I'm still holding out hope but yea, it does look like he's gone. That really sucks!!

 

[Rabbits20]

Get ready for the speech oh it was the hardest choice he ever had to make and all.

Not at all I don’t think. He’s been in Paul White’s pocket all along. It’s been an easy choice for him I think like Pilot said.

I must say @Pilot house whilst we haven’t always agreed good on you for speaking up all about Seibs recently. To be honest bro I think you’ve nailed it every time and it’s just what people didn’t wanna hear which is why some took it the wrong way. But really you’re just saying how you feel and I feel exactly the same way.
