What’s the issue, if anything it puts a hard deadline on him leaving a legacy. If he wants to win anything, it’s in the next 18 months. The following two years will be him as an assistant, which won’t suit his ego, so he will want to leave here a winner and force his reputation on the NRL. 


Would you rather an open ended Steve Price style contract, where a cup run and play offs seems enough, or do you want a time bound deal with a strict deadline to deliver of get out. 


We now have time to find the right replacement.

He absolutely should leave at the end of this season and we should be trying to get Gardiner now before Saints do. Being announced a couple of weeks before Wembley seems very poor IMO.
