2027 2nd Grade Coaching Team

We're excited to confirm our 2nd Grade Coaching Team for 2027!

• Head Coach: Gerard Bell
• Assistant Coach: Brendan Trudgen
• Manager: Andy Muir

The club would like to welcome back Gerard Bell as the Head Coach of 2nd Grade in 2027. Building on the momentum gained from the 2026 season, we look forward to Gerard again leading this important team within the club's senior rugby program.

Joining Gerard as assistant coach in 2027, will be club newcomer, Brendan Trudgen. Brendan has successfully guided Brothers 3rd Grade to three (3) successive QPR Grand Finals, winning the title in 2026. Welcome to the Eagles Brendan!

Finally, and fresh off the back of winning the Club's Manager of the Year in 2026, Andy Muir will again be looking after this group in his role as team manager.

The club would also like to thank Wes Klopper for his efforts in 2026. Moving on to take a coaching role closer to home, we are very appreciative of Wes' contributions to the Eagles in 2026.

With this exciting leadership group, our 2nd Grade are set up for a big season ahead. Welcome back Gerard and Andy and welcome aboard Brendan!
