Madge is a noted overtrainer , you get results for 2 seasons and the players burn out …..
Dont you think a coach can improve?
He was sacked for that flaw. If he can accept the blame and look to improve himself i dont see why he cant become a career coach.
I agree and this was my thinking today. You can criticise Maguire but he won a comp - I'll take a few seasons of over-training if one of them jags a premiership.
But more than that, a coach can improve just as a player can, and old mistakes are not necessarily repeated. In fact he'd arguably be wiser for the experience.
Maguire was gifted the perfect tools for his rigid game plan, a massive mobile pack. I've seen no evidence that he has an effective plan B, in fact with all the talk of "over training" etc that has been given for Maguires demmise, for mine what stood out with his team is they NEVER had a plan B when plan A of running over the top of sides didnt work. Suffice to say if Maguire came to the Tigers, he would not have the personnel to adopt those tactics and would need to come up with something new.
Over 30 years of coaching Bennett has chopped, changed and adapted masterfully and his continuiing career is testimony to that fact. Of the two, I have more faith that Bennett woud be able to come up with a plan for this team.
