Laurie Daley Steps Down as NSW Blues Coach After Origin Victory
Daley says he has made up his mind as NSWRL speaks with candidates, with a successor possibly chosen by Wednesday.
- On Monday, Laurie Daley officially announced he is stepping down as NSW Blues coach following his State of Origin series triumph in Brisbane last month.
- Daley concludes his second stint after leading NSW to a 2-1 series victory, with NSWRL chief executive David Trodden crediting him as one of the state's greatest player-coaches.
- Despite intense scrutiny through the first two games, Daley secured a 30-12 victory at Lang Park in game three and famously urged critics to 'show some balls' over their coverage.
- NSWRL officials aim to lock in a successor as early as Wednesday, with Daley publicly endorsing assistants Matt King and Boyd Cordner as candidates who understand the position's scrutiny.
- While Penrith coach Ivan Cleary ruled himself out until after 2027, NSWRL officials confirmed they have had no contact with Michael Maguire despite speculation he sought the role.
