Madge Maguire - Mega Thread

[jirskyr]

Apparently the Cowboys are weighing up the future of Todd Payten. I reckon Sheens would be a big fan.

I think he'll survive the axe, you can't punt a coach after a season where the majority of the roster isn't his. I liked his work at the Warriors and he certainly outcoached Maguire against us at LO this year. if the opportunity came up for him to make a return he'd most certainly throw his hat in the ring.

I know people think he's a snake and all, but if you want the Wests Tigers DNA and identity everyone carries on about, it lives in Todd Payten. I think he will end up head coach here one day, especially with Sheens in the building.

Payten is a smart operator and it would be outstanding to have him reunited under Sheens at WTs.

Doing great things at the Cowboys.

'Not good enough': Tigers board to undertake post-season review.

Bye bye Madge.

Wests Tigers prepare for decision on Michael Maguire as James McManus case close to an end

By Brent Read

The Wests Tigers’ season will mercifully come to an end on Sunday but the hard work is about to begin. The Tigers have some big decisions to make in coming weeks, most notably around the future of coach Michael Maguire.

A review of the football department has already kicked off and a decision on Maguire’s future is expected by the end of the month. It’s hard to get a precise read on whether Maguire will be there next season or not, but Sunday’s result against Canterbury could be crucial.

Should the Tigers lose, they are likely to remain in 13th, the club’s worst finish in four years. It would also be the worst finish of Maguire’s stellar coaching career. A win could mean the club jumping to 11th, although that would be small consolation given the expectation of Tigers fans and officials when the season began.

There is a sense of urgency around the decision. The Tigers have more than $1m of salary cap burning a hole in their pocket and a desire to spend it. Decisions need to be made on players and recruitment.

Weekend Read understands that Maguire is keen to give James Roberts a new contract but the club may hold their nerve until a decision is made on the coach.

At the heart of the call will be whether the club believes Maguire has the ability to extract the best from the playing group. On this year, it would be hard to argue in the affirmative.

The sense is that there is disconnect between the players and the coaching staff. The question for the Tigers will be whether it can be repaired or whether the dressing room requires a fresh voice.

Incoming head of performance Tim Sheens will play a part in the decision from afar – he is tentatively booked to return from England next month to begin his new role.

The club’s junior numbers are healthy. The top squad has flashed potential at times this year but more often have been out of their depth.

It is understood premiership winner Shane Flanagan is unlikely to get the job if it does become vacant, although Penrith assistant Cameron Ciraldo, Queensland’s Paul Green and St Helens coach Kristian Woolf deserve consideration.

11 is about what I expected this year. Next year is the year I expected us to challenge for the 8. Not particularly confident of next year but I didnt expect wonders this year.

When are the players going to be held accountable. Sounds like Justin, board and hartigan are looking for a scape goat. Only coach they mentioned I'd be interested in is woolf what are peoples thoughts on him, not sure even available.

Ciraldo has a puchable face.

I don’t particularly care what the coach looks like I just want whoever the coach is getting the team playing to the best of their ability and putting in 100% week in week out. My fear- this group haven’t got that in the them. I’m not confident that any coach available can do that and despite the wraps on young coaches like Ciraldo and Ryles, this place is not the place for a rookie.

It says "deserves" so I would take it that's just Brent Read's opinion.
They couldn't possibly appoint Green surely?

How we supposed to recruit when ?? On coach. Club is a joke

I would sack Lee first, then if I was allowed to sack another person, I would rehire him so I could sack him again.
