Payten & Woolf both have only 1 year remaining on their contracts- so both could be removed with smaller cost.

I think both those teams will be better this season though.

Seibold is my least favourite coach in the NRL, so I'd be happy for him to go & I suspect Manly are ready for a collapse.

I'll throw 2 wild cards out there. If the Sharks don't fire this season, Fitzgibbon has been overlooking almost-good teams for years. And with the massive weight of expectation at the club- be very interesting to see what happens if Galvin doesn't have the Bulldogs flying this season what that would mean for the Bulldog's belief in Ciraldo, who gets praised for overlooking a massive spend with ok results.

Clubs seem to have a liking for the mid season dismissal.
