Fresh from guiding the Brisbane Broncos to a stunning upset of the Storm in the NRL Grand Final, coach Michael Maguire joined Sport Nation's Scotty & Izzy to reflect on the the latest achievement in a staggering three-year stretch.
It was a run sparked by his success with the NZ Kiwis, who he lead to an equally improbable drubbing of Australia in the Pacific Championships back in 2023, hanging a shock 30-0 drubbing of the Kangaroos in the final in Hamilton.
Maguire discusses the impact of his tenure with New Zealand on his approach to coaching and why the team holds such a special place in his heart.
He also touches on last year's success with NSW at State of Origin level and explains what makes Clive Churchill medallist Reece Walsh the superstar he is.
