Foran returns to Manly

Manly Warringah Sea Eagles are delighted to welcome Kieran Foran back to the Club as an Assistant Coach for the next two seasons.

Foran played 196 games in two separate stints over nine seasons at Manly, winning the NRL premiership in 2011.

The New Zealand international, who is currently playing for the Kiwis in the Pacific Championships, retired from the NRL at the conclusion of the 2025 season, after 318 appearances across 17 seasons.

He rejoins Manly from the Gold Coast Titans where he played 56 games in his final three seasons.

Foran says he’s thrilled to be returning to the Northern Beaches.

“I’m stoked to be coming back to Manly, I really am,” he said.

“This club has been a huge part of my life and given me so much, and now I get to try and give a little back.

“I’m super excited to be working alongside Seibs and the team and I can’t wait to rip in.”

This is such an exciting new chapter for me and my family.

Sea Eagles head coach Anthony Seibold is excited by what Foran will bring to the Club.

“It’s wonderful to bring Kieran home to Manly,” Seibold said.

“He has Manly DNA and was a great servant to the club as a player and a premiership winner.

“He now starts the next chapter in his career as a coach and I’m excited for him.

Having just retired as a player he understands the modern game at the highest level.

“Kieran will be a significant addition to our coaching staff as we undertake a new look in 2026.”
