The Broncos board has reportedly put an ultimatum under pressure to trainer Anthony Seibold to keep his job after he was frustrated by the team’s dismal efforts.
The daily telegraph Seibold has reportedly been told that if he wants to keep his job, he will have to win five of the last ten games of the season in Brisbane.

It comes after the Broncos were beaten up by the Tigers on Friday night and suffered their second biggest loss of the year.
Seibold is under contract with the club until the end of 2022, with an option in favor of the club for 2023, but he has to dramatically change the team’s fate to save his job.
It’s going to be a tough fight for Seibold and his men, who will compete against three of the top four teams in their next 10 games.
Two weeks ago, Paul White, CEO of Broncos, convened a press conference the morning after a disappointing loss to the competitive Warriors to “reaffirm” his support for Seibold.
The club’s incredible reputation for providing an ultimatum to Seibold is welcomed by a number of former players, including Broncos Old Boys chairman Chris Johns, who called for Saturday’s release not only from Seibold but also from White.
Johns has tackled the lack of leadership at Red Hill and wants the coach, club CEO and chairman to be fired immediately.

“Everything has to be removed from the Broncos. Dismiss all key decision makers, ”Johns told the Courier Mail .
“The club has lacked leadership for years and now these results are crystallizing.
“Now you have to fix the foundations. If you try to build a mansion on a poor foundation, the whole thing will collapse.
“The foundation in the NRL begins with the chairman and the CEO. Step aside, get a new board, get a new CEO, a new recruiter, and then you can start building the house again.
“Stop putting plaster on the square. When Paul White fires Seibold, this is the fourth coach after Ivan Henjak, Anthony Griffin and Wayne Bennett.
“When is it time to say that it is not just the problem of the trainer, but the entire organization?
“The entire front office and the coach should be fired. Clean the whole place and start over. “
