Interesting piece of recruitment, as already said, a wealth of playing experience and a few years at Catalans to get a feel for coaching side. Like our player recruitment, got to go trust CC choice. Top surname as well :D

If he were coming as a head Coach then maybe not but as part of a team with his undiubted knowledge as a great player it's probably not relevent. Coaches need the respect of the players especially when they are new to the job and have no real CV to back up their coaching skills. Can't really be many much higher up the list of great players of the last ten years than this bloke.

If you were an Aussie player or a yongster wanting a SL club one with Minoghan in the set up would look very inviting. He's not a JK but he's definitely got potential.

I agree he has the potential to be a very good appointment, I just don't think Catalans performances over the last two years weren't really much to shout about. Anyhow, as the great Yoda professed, failure is the greatest teacher, and the difficulties that club have had and the egos on board will have been a good learning curve for Monaghan.

Horo was there last season as well so I would imagine the club will have spoken to him about it and he must think Monaghan is a decent coach.

Re: Michael Monaghan : Wed Jan 17, 2018 2:25 pm  
Where does he fit into the ranking? Obviously, CC is head coach, and Dickens and Gilmore are assistants. Is Monaghan THE assistant, with Dickens and Gilmore as assistants, or all three the same? Just curious.

Brings experience and guile, and his time at Catalan gives him a better CV than a retiring player who fancies having a go at it.

I would assume he is second in command to Chessie, like Poching was to Webster at KR and Agar was to Smith at Wire and Sheridan is to Powell at Cas :wink:
