Madge Maguire - Mega Thread

I actually liked what Madge said at his presser.

A few thoughts:

1. The defensive effort wasn't a change of defence style to stop and slide that channel 9 thought. It was the players not listening to coach and not putting in effort.

2. Madge spoke a lot more direct than normal and called out players not giving a go. Hopefully this signals a change where he starts to cut the dead wood.

3. We have a younger group who are playing for madge and giving it a go. Hopefully they become the core neculus of the team from now on.

4. Plan is to develop from within. Gave example of east's and said it takes around 6 years to see the youth come through.

5. Said we still haven't defined what being a Wests Tigers player means.

6. Said they wasn't room in salary cap to look at market until now. I'd say that while madge has technically resigned most of the squad, our salary cap didn't allow him to look too broadly.

Key point is Madge better follow through and puck a team next game of players who want to give their all.

Sack him

Didn't think we'd get you over to our side. Welcome.

Not only that, I'd also play AD at 6 next week.

Not sure if any of you watched Bennet's press conference. Very, very interesting. He basically said that the media blame the players for these huge blowout scores, but the main problem is with the management of some clubs. He said it is much deeper than blaming the players and suggested a toxic workplace will lead to underperforming in any work environment.. Worth watching if you haven't seen it.

Ridiculous, Madge is still the man for.mi e on 2022 and 23.

The line speed is pedestrian and edge defense is garbage.

I saw wingers at center and not manning up in numbers.

Still, the team avoided the cricket score.

We need the cattle.

Watch his press conference that is man that has run out of ideas, he has taken the team backwards, I have seen more quality leave rather than come since he has been here. I would be surprised if he is is still here in a month so there is no links to Sheen’s return.

He won't
The sun will rise, you will pay tax, one day you will surely die..............and Madge will pick Mbye.

I can handle a loss if we have a go. Today we didn't and thats the disappointing thing. I hope Madge drops a few after today.
 
To be fair to him its not like we have a bunch of NRL stars. Our 2 highest paid players are Moses Mbye and Russell Packer who he didnt sign and that means your cap is ruined.

Also who wants to co.e to our club - qe tried to sign Latrell and JAC and missed out because of what our club is.

It was pretty obvious in the dressing room prior to the game the players weren't listening to him. That's the end for Maguire.

Yeah, very noticeable. He gave a rev up, he even demonstrated the old 'find your shoulder' technique...and not a single one of them bounced up. They all looked half asleep.

Walters have the Broncs the same speech and some of them were bouncing off the walls after it.

His style just does not work anymore. They need a coach who can improve their techniques and offer real game plans.

They must have listened to his half time speech?
The Rabbits are a top 4 team, there backline is far superior than ours, surely no one thought these last 4 games were winnable?
We have half a team full of kids and some who are just cruising, I mean our little FB was our best player for us today? Getting rid of the bludgers won't be easy atm.

You are delusional, we have conceded 154 points in our last 3 games, including 40 in one half, Madge has lost the sheds, and lost the plot, he needs to go now.
We are no superstar side, but we are far better than the results, seriously mate are you related to Madge

Grow up with the name calling, if you can't see the crap efforts from the players are putting in, then you don't know the game?

Of course he knows the game. Madge signed the players, yet can't get them to perform.


Madge can only sign players that are dumb enough to want to come here.

Those are discards and people wanting to play for a better contract elsewhere.

It's not Madge's fault.

Well then it's chicken or the egg isn't it. Without winning games, we can't get good players, can't win the games without good players. Thats exactly the reason we need a coach who CAN attract players. I would imagine only the players afraid of tackling would want to come here otherwise.

Oh yah and Morris has proven he can attract players?

Flanagan? Might attract some druggies.

There is no better coach available than Madge. None that can 'attract' these players you're talking about.

The players need to go, not Madge.

Sorry mate, you must have me confused with somebody else. I never mentioned the 2 blokes you have.

Go on and name a replacement.

Another dig at Broncos IMO.
 
I think people need to realise we are building the club from the bottom up to finally become a powerhouse...we aren’t looking for a few good years...we want to become a top team for a long time..hence keeping madge and enduring this suffering instead of destroying our cap like other teams in our position ie. doggies, Bronx, drags

Irony lost on you as well, you don't see the players not playing for the coach, or his 2014 game plan, and I don't know the game
 
So this is our third rubbish season under him,how long would The Roosters,Storm,Bronco, heck even Bulldogs wait before showing him the door.
I don’t want to sounds completely pessimistic but I don’t remember any tough gritty wins under him.No memorable performance.
We have been blown off the park way too times under him.
His foward rotation and defensive structure simply does not work with our boys.
He is done me thinks.

Well the 2 best coaches in the last 20 years are both off contract, maybe make some contact with those guys and find out what it would take.

I would have liked it also if I thought he'd act on it...but he won't.

He has already given the "my reserve grade side are winning" and not picked them...

He has already given the "we need to find our shoulders" speech three times, but sat by as the same blokes each week don't tackle.

I don't want to sound too negative, but Maguire is basically just trotting out rhetoric to buy time at the moment.

You can only say stuff so many times and not act before everyone knows it is nothing but talk...

It is because he has run out of ideas, the game passed him by at the start of 2020, he is so far behind now he is no chance of catching back up

I see the players not performing, I can't see anything what Madge is doing at training, because I'm not there, are you?
