Because his form over the last few years does not warrent an NRL move. Why with all the top centres Australia have, would they need to go for a Gleeson who looks nothing out of the ordinary majority of the time.

yeah right. Hes gone

Hmmm??

Did anyone actually see him at the match, i.e. sat with Moz and Monaghan in his shirt n tie?

If Gleeson had played v York then he couldn't have played for Wigan in the C Cup.
Perhaps Gleeson has enough of Tony Smith in the World Cup down under.
I thought Gleeson did reasonable in the WC but Tony Smith's performance as coach was worse then awful.
He's a good club coach IMO but a long way from an Intl coach.
Maybe it was Gleeson who told Smith "I want to leave asap".
Good deal all round both for Wigan, Wire and Gleeson.
Interesting to see if Goulding is included. If he doesn't want to leave Wigan then all he has to do is say "No" as he's under contract to end of 2010. If Wigan cancelled his contract then they'd have to pay him up.

I must say, I dislike it when people compare club and international management, as its a totally different thing.

The best coach in the world couldn't have got much better from the England side at the World Cup, simply because you can't shine a turd....England, player by player, compared to the Aussies and Kiwis, were always miles behind, and Smith or not, England would have failed miserably.

The difference at a club, is that a coach can analyse a team, and actually do something about it through recruitment....You have a few bad players??...Get rid, and sign some better ones......Unfortunately, international rugby doesn't allow this luxury, work with the hyped up superstars that English rugby is full of, and pray for miracles...

First bad apple out? It might be the only one. Maybe Smith putting down a marker like this may make the others (whoever they are) buckle down.

I assume Gleeson Knows Brian Noble is the Wigan Coach

he too never won a tap as International coach...and was in charge When Sean Long showed a total lack of respect for the National Jersey and was sent home /mid series.....

If Tony Smith ruffled feathers because he wants players to show respect then no wonder Gleesons off to Nobles team...

reardons going on monday

Take it from me. Gleeson going nowhere. Not signed. Stayin at Warrington, heard from a player who didn't play today!

U sure?

Absolute positive mate!
