The fact he is saying that he is prepared to come in any coaching role makes me thing he will be assistant to a head coach next season.

Having seen the MEN it may be that McGuire is going to be the new head coach as this is the second different news paper to link him to us.

McGiure as head coach Lammy as backs coach, add wane as forwards coach.

We just then need to sort out the conditioning team but no doubt McGuire will bring his own man from down under should he be appointed!!

If all that happens I will probably wee myself with excitement.

Sorry but I've been away, can someone fill me in on this McGuire?

I thought the rumour was we're signing Danny McGuire

Assistant with Kearney at Storm. Although Kearney has the higher profile because of the NZ job apparantly a lot of his piers rate McGuire as the better coach, I seem to remember Wayne Bennett recommending him somewhere.

I think it's fair to say that Mike McGuire is one of the highest rated new young coaches in the NRL. Seems to have technical and strategic expertise, great motivation skills and an obsessive interest in fitness and conditioning. In short, he's got everything we're looking for.

But as someone else said, he's bound to be getting head-coach offers in the NRL soon. I reckon it would take a big wedge to bring him over here.

Your right in saying it probably would take a large wedge to get him over here, but thankfully for us coaches don't count on the cap.

Wasn't Michael McGuire also Billy Bradshaws mate?

There is a certain individual who posts on here by the name of IFL. Im sure he would be able to make it happen.
