Well... by history now as it's been wiped when Mebourne were stripped of titles, Bellamy isn't a successful coach anymore.

God help us all if this bloke ever wins anything, he's already some sort of coaching god half way through a trophy-less season!

He's had an excellent start, as did Nathan Brown. He may go back home after 2 years looking for an NRL job without a trophy to his name, like Nathan Brown will.

Different kettle of fish.

That is unfair on Brown, Hudds are hardly a top club with amazing resources, he has done a terrific job but good luck winning something with Hudds after a couple of years.

Maguire has turned this team upside down. He has done an amazing job so far, you can't deny it. He is exactly the sort of coach everyone wants. He will win something

I didn't say they had amazing resources, just that as a coach he got off to a good start but with a stronger squad this year they look a weaker proposition.

A new coach coming in can have a dramatic impact on performance - look at the turnaround in results with Noble at the end of his first year - that sort of form would probably have seen you at the top of the table but he's no uber-coach.

I'm not going to analyse if he is better than other coaches but Potter and McClennan walked into title winning teams. Maguire has not and yet we are title contenders.

And if he does, every other club will be off to get their own version.

The transformation he has made to everyone at the club, see K Pryce & Amos Roberts as 2 examples is amazing.
