A coach is only as good as the squad he has to work with and all coaches are impacted by things out of their control - injuries, player unrest, off field incidents lack of salary cap.
All the coaches that have come to this club have been behind the eight ball due to the perception and administration of the club even before they looked at the salary cap and the weaknesses in the squad..
Cleary and Maguire are examples of their potential to be successful at successfully run clubs - both who took up positions at organisations with great resources and great systems in place for long term success.
Nothing like the WTs.
Any coach in any sport needs the cattle ..but no coach I see survives consistent results that puts them at the foot of the table ..poor playing squad or not
Maguire is interesting though.. he went from premiership drought breaking coach at Souths to sacked in three years because they had a few seasons with a top ranked team that missed the finals and they essentially quit on him… The Broncos better get the title early with him… because his style doesn’t seem to be one built for longevity with the same playing group
