Madge had a big reputation within the NRL before he came here, it appears his exceptional first season has accelerated his chance of a head coach job in the NRL.
Whilst Wigan are the biggest name in club rugby sadly Super League cannot compete with the NRL.
The chance to steer the Bunnies to a Premiership is just too big an opportunity to turn down. Anyone who thinks otherwise is just being naive.

| Quote ROBINSON="ROBINSON"Well in that case, I class Maguire just the same as all the other Aussies who come over here and have no respect whatsoever for their contractual obligations. As soon as a better offer comes along or they don't like the weather, they bugger off.
On one hand, if they don't want to be here then they can leave, but I don't see why we should put up with their whims, and just capitulate to their demands when they decide they've got a better offer elsewhere. Where's Lenegan's backbone?'"
IL speaks:
Quote ROBINSONWigan chairman Ian Lenagan admitted it was never an option to deny Maguire permission to return to the NRL.
"The first we knew of it was Michael talking to us about the possibility 10 days ago and I asked him to keep me informed," he said.
"There was no question of releasing him and it's not at all acrimonious. We rate Michael highly and we get on with him well.
"We understand he wishes to go back to Australia and we would not stand in his way. We're looking forward, now the news is out, to having a good season."'"
So we still dont really know if it was a clause or not. |

You have to respect that he wants to go home,but i believe
he must have been talking to Souths,when he went home for a break.
Thats the only thing that disappoints me.
It seems to me he has grabbed the 1st nrl job to come his way,which tells me he just wants out and home anyway.

No, and to be fair, MM's personal terms are nothing to do with us. And I do understand IL's position that if someone wants to leave then why stand in their way, especially if it means you're not going to get 100% from that person.
But surely professional sport is about honouring your commitments and giving 100% whilst you're there? It's not a good example to set, is it? |

If he steers them to the title,he will go down as the greatest coach in the game. |

Sheens hasn't signed his deal with the Tigers yet, I'd go for him for a couple of years then hand the reins over to Waney.
Didn't Madge serve 5 years as an assistant before taking the Wigan job. Ensure Waney completes his apprenticeship before throwing him into the top job.
When Waney does take the top job we want to ensure it's a long and successful time at Wigan.

Feel a bit let down tbh, i thought MM had a little more integrity but i suppose he has been offered a top NRL job on top money near home and that would be hard to refuse. I just hope he can now get his head sorted on the current season to get up both cups and that he makes his mark in the NRL and maybe eventually either Origin or Aussie coach.

How many coaches have the club sacked in the last fifteen years?
Boot's on the other foot and we don't like it.
