Kieran Foran Lands Sea Eagles Coaching Role Until 2029
Manly Sea Eagles have secured Kieran Foran as their head coach on a long-term deal, extending through the end of the 2029 season. The appointment comes after Foran served as caretaker coach following the sacking of Anthony Seibold in March.
The former NRL star stepped into the interim role after Seibold’s departure, and the Sea Eagles have demonstrated strong form under his guidance. The team has achieved a commendable record of seven wins from their last nine matches, signalling a positive trajectory for the club.
Foran’s coaching career began in earnest after a distinguished playing career. He brings a wealth of experience and understanding of the game to the role, a factor that undoubtedly influenced the Sea Eagles’ decision to offer him the permanent position. The long-term contract reflects the club's confidence in his ability to lead the team to sustained success.
While details regarding Foran’s coaching staff and strategic approach are yet to be fully revealed, the announcement has been met with optimism from fans and analysts alike. The Sea Eagles will be aiming to build on their recent performances and challenge for premiership contention under Foran's leadership. Elsewhere in the NRL, Connor Watson has signed with both the New Zealand Chiefs and St George Illawarra Dragons.
