MAGUIRE IS THE WIZARD OF OZ

[medlocke]

He will and should leave after 3 years IMO. I daresay there will be no shortage of NRL clubs wanting such a young talented coach. If/when he does leave his legacy will be far healthier than the one he inherited.

I've read you say that before. Would the people he leaves behind be able to take over you think or would we need to look to Aus again considering that you feel that after 3 years they need to refresh again because they may have gone stale or methods have moved on(hope I've got that right)

Edwatds will be ready to come home when MM leaves, it worls itself out nicely imo

i really do need a new keyboaed

In many ways it's a said indictment of the game here that an Aussie assistant coach came here and in a short space of time took essentially the same team as a former GB coach had and transformed it the way he has.

We have few British coaches in the game at SL level and most seem old fashioned in comparison.

I am still flabbergasted at Kears reported comments against us recently when making substitutions. Go and give us some s h 1 t or some such comment. A tactical genius, not.

Maguire had a very short 1st grade paying career and yet managed to help Melbourne to success and has got us playing like a completely different team.

What makes him so special? I am not sure it is exposure to the NRL that is the only factor. Maybe he is an intelligent bloke who is capable of being properly tactical and having the odd original thought about the game as opposed to sending players on to give s h 1 t?

His good "one to one" man management helps here, I am sure

Are you trying to tell me that Nobles management style of dropping players for no reason and then ignoring and hiding from them for weeks on end wasnt good

In most sports players whose own career was curtailed prematurely have a record of doing well. They finish playing at a young age and stilll have bags of energy and desire to learn and develop. Madge fits that descvription. Bellamy was a fairly average utility style player too. You can imagine those two a class player like Kearney really bouncing ideas of each other and learning/developing as a real brains trust.

Shaun Edwards? I like many would have love him to coach Wigan but I think time may have passed him by. He would need to update his RL knowledge and would it be right to pass Shaun Wane over? Perhaps we should be enticing Andy Farrell back to our coaching team to learn from the bottom up so to speak.

I think the same applies to Faz, TBH. I'd like to see the progression going Madge>Waney>Rads (with, as you say, a spell in Oz for both Waney & Rads).
