Michael Maguire

The only way the Eels (or any other club)  will be able to land Michael Maguire is if they allow him to do both coach the eels and mentor New Zealand. - In Fridays Daily Telegraph

    • He definitely will be picked up by someone else and when we inevitability dump BA no one will be available
  • The positive side around signing Maguire is that he's very good around developing juniors into established first graders, and as we've seen with his grand final winning team, he brought a bunch of rookies through the system to win a gf in 2014


    7 Adam Reynolds 2nd year 
    9 Api Koroisau  1st full season 
    3. Dylan Walker  1st full season 
    4. Kirisome Auva'a debut season 
    6. Luke Keary    1st full season 
    Then he has a bunch of no names like Dave Tyrrell, Jason Clark, Kyle Turner and then brought a retiring Lote Tuqiri and won a grand final.

    That was an incredible achievement. There's no doubt he can teach developing players the game. Those 5 starting players had virtually less that 50 games between them.

    He's also a good disciplinarian, which i think is what the players need right now.

    Parramatta need Maguire 

    • Sam and Tom played in that side . Only two of the four.

      Still, Maguire had to get them up to the speed of the NRL along with a bunch of rookies .

      Maguire deserves major credit brissy.
      • I think you mean Sam and George 2014 George was the best prop in the game and he scored that barnstorming try in the grand final!

  • If Maguire was any good why were Souths rubbish the last two years and brilliant this year under Seibold?
    • Don't forget their main player Inglis was injured for the full season and Burgess went to rugby
    • GF come down, it was bound to happen to a club thats won its first comp in 50 odd years.

      He proved he could win finals games and the big one.

      Most coaches get stale at clubs too.

      • ^^ this. Big GF comedown.
