Madge Maguire - Mega Thread

[851]

Morris or Flanagan would jump at the chance, both more in tune with the current game, both more likely to attract better players as well

You are just making up facts to suit your agenda.

Call it what you like, Madge is off with players, if he wasn't we would have some high profile recruits by now, we had the money to buy them

do you think Douhie will hang around if he can't play 6 in the next year or so ?

If he’s under contract, then yes.

But that’s not to say he won’t be playing 6 in the future?

He will not be Hastings or maybe Brooks or Brooks leaves ...Douhie is not a centre either so there's the rub.

Well he is here for another 2.5 years, so he will be playing somewhere, either 6, 3 or 4?

 

[851]

I'm wondering what some of the more out there serial Madge bashers were like as kids. All I can imagine is whining, snot-nosed, little toads that wanted their red cordial now and had little tanties when mummy said no.

I grew up in a very strict household, I got my fathers belt, steel cap boots up the bum, wooden handle of the feather duster, ironing cord from mum.
So you couldn't be further from the truth, and you sure as hell shouldn't be casting aspersions on other people without a clue of what went on, your comments mean nothing to me, as do your opinions

Where would you play him?

Imagine taking others opinions on a coach so seriously that you have to resort to this sort of stuff. Pretty tragic ?

Pathetic isn't it, but we are the bad people, go figure

I agree pick him where it fits the team but if he wants to play 6 and say a cowboys come with a good offer and a 6 position then he may kick stones and request a release. He seems to see.himself as a 6 not a centre

Then he needs to improve his game play as a 6.

How, when he is playing centre

My mum favoured the wooden spoon, I remember laughing at her one day when she hit me with it, next one broke the spoon.

I have a sister, so I copped all the flak, she got away with everything, and I copped the lot, even stuff she did

He needs to show it at training, in trials, anytime he gets an opportunity. In a game of touch at training, if you want it you take your opportunity.

People jump up and down about agendas ..facts do not lie ! Maguire has been here for three seasons can anybody say honestly that this team is any better than 3 seasons ago ,and the fact is this is his team signed and resigned Mbye being the exception
How long do you think next season before he is punted if there is no success then slippery Sheens is straight in there , after the selection of Walters last week that's me done no thought process at all that was an important game that was thrown away with that selection.
There can be as many agendas as you won't but I doubt Maguire has any longevity at this club the last 3 seasons tells that story.
For me now Morris in and Sheens the overlord !

Madge gave him the opportunity to play 5/8 and he choked the backline and hogged the ball....Mbye has improved Lukes game and was giving the backline some ball and space...I hope AD learns from this so he can become the 6 everyone expects of him...he also should take a leaf out of Mbyes book on how to defend in the 6 position...he is doing well at centre,could be good there as well...

Many good footy judges across a variety of platforms would disagree, they had Doueihi as our best player for the time he was at five eight.

I was the oldest of 3 boys, my favourite one was my Dad would use the belt. He would tell us to go get it from the back of his door for him. The middle boy and I would say no but the youngest always went and got it so he wouldn't get as many as us. We were talking about it with Dad the other day and he asked if we knew my youngest brother didn't get and many licks with the belt. I said yes but there was no way I was doing his work for him, if he wanted to hit me with his belt and could get up and go get the belt himself.

It was better for his individual game at 5/8th, no question, problem is that came at the detriment of the players playing around him.

I am one who believes in Madge Maguire but not with this roster. I’d actually be interested to see who lined up if he walked or was pushed. That would be one poor schmuck!!

This is his roster.

Lol

Mbye proved a much better six. Madges stuf ups were

1. Not picking Moses at start of season
2. AD clearly second best 6 and should be pick at 6 when Moses is not playing

What other position mistakes has he made

- kepoa not a winger
- talau not a winger
- Joey L not good enough at centre
- Roberts not good enough at centre
- twal not a 13

You can’t take more than half the season to get team selections right. It’s a systemic issue. He needs help or need to go.
