Ask Manly Sea Eagles head coach Anthony Seibold what he has learnt from his friend Matt Comyn, the chief executive of Commonwealth Bank, and he is quick to point to Comyn’s ability to turn his attention instantly to different topics and audiences.

“The thing that really impressed me was how well he prepared, and how well he was able to pivot from performance moments to performance moments,” Seibold told the 15 Minutes with the BOSS podcast before the start of the 2025 National Rugby League season this weekend.
