“Today I liked a video by Elijah Taylor talking about Michael Maguire’s coaching methods,” Taupau said.
“I regret this as it was not my intention to endorse the video. I removed the like immediately after.
“I want to make it clear. I am thoroughly enjoying being coached by coach Michael Maguire and will continue to do whatever I can to help the Broncos win a premiership in 2025.”
Maguire has come under fire in some quarters for training the side too hard and for being too intense during the week.
Those claims were rejected by props Payne Haas and Pat Carrigan this week.
“I think it’s bollocks,” Haas said.
“Everyone has got belief in this group and what [Maguire] does with us. We support him 100 per cent.
“We enjoy being here and enjoy training hard, we just haven’t got the results.”
Carrigan backed up Haas.
“We know we have to train hard and we know we have to do the things to get where we want to be and that’s be a premiership team,” he said.
“Marty has addressed it. As a teammate I will support him, but also where we want to go as a club.”
Taupau played one game off the bench this year for Brisbane and lined up in 34 matches for the club in his 256-game career.
