Early life

Born 24 January 1980 in Nambour, Queensland, McGuire was playing junior league for Caloundra Sharks & Kawana Dolphins. He then attended Caloundra State High QSSRL in 1997 when he was selected for the Australian Schoolboys rugby league team.
Parramatta Eels

McGuire made his NRL debut in the 1998 season for the Parramatta Eels.
Brisbane Broncos

The next season, he returned to Queensland to play for the Brisbane Broncos. At the Broncos he was a utility player, normally used in games from the bench.
Selected to play from the interchange bench in the 2006 NRL Grand Final, McGuire's last game for the Broncos, he threw a miracle pass which contributed to Brisbane's match-winning try.
Queensland
He was selected for the Queensland Maroons in the 2005 State of Origin series playing off the bench for games 1 and 2.
European Super League
McGuire missed the Broncos' 2007 World Club Challenge appearance due to his move to France to play in Super League for Catalans Dragons. Having initially started playing the halves at Les Catalans, McGuire increasingly found himself playing at hooker and sharing much of the creative responsibilities with Adam Mogg and Thomas Bosc. had also been named in the France squad for the Four Nations tournament, qualifying under the three-year residency rule, but did not play.
Return to Australia
McGuire returned to Australia and the club where he made his NRL comeback with his first club, the Parramatta Eels for the 2011 season, playing as five-eighth. He only missed a small number of games since returning to the NRL.
A pectoral muscle injury during the 2012 NRL season put the remainder of McGuire's playing career in doubt.
