Keep him, he's almost dismantled the team.

And the award for the most foolish post of the year goes to you! At least the others were trolling but it genuinely looks like you believe what you have wrote?

Slightly better than Wire but way behind Leeds and Saints during the SL era:

The FACTS seem to show different. We've got 3 SL titles compared to 6 for Leeds and 5 for Saints. Wire on the other hand have none. If by your logic 3 titles compared to none is 'slightly better' then how can 3 vs 5/6 be 'way ahead'?

Your are right Wane looks like an excellent coach with 1 away win in 10 months. His record of taking a dominant SL side that didn't loose away in the league for 17 games straight under Maguire is coaching genius.

Yeah, I also remember the dirty c**t leaving Shaun Wane spread eagled at Elland Road in the JPS Final in 86. His famous 'forearm smash' running through on Wane in an off the ball incident. Did he get to collect his losers medal from the 'early bath' that day?

Corrected for accuracy!!!!!!

Although , Like most Wiganers, You have completely forgotten about last year.

Fair enough.

I guess i got the selective memory from you guys who seem to have forgotten RL existed before SL.

The REAL total sits at -20 vs 13

This is the 2nd thread I've had to clean up because of 7 year olds throwing snot at each other. Grow up or I'll tell your mum you're up after bedtime because the babysitter is gash.

Maguire brought half the Melbourne team with him. Didn't have a squad of academy players.
Oh and didn't he leave the ´ biggest´ club in rugby for bigger and better things?
I should study more. Your not behind wire in grand final wins. Have they won more challenge cups in the modern era than Wigan?
6-3 would be........double the amount ie twice as many, twice as far....way ahead.

Maguire won the GF with the addition of Paul Deacon. HTH.

Hoffman and Lima were already at Wigan then?

Yes, and two hardly constitutes "Half"...

No

No.

As an FC fan, still not convinced former prop forwards make the best coaches


Wane was lucky to inherit the strong foundation put in place by MM.
It would have been hard for any coach to fail with what he was left with.
Now, after a few years, his true influence is being felt.
Trouble is, if you get rid of him won't Deacon just take over?. I always thought that was your owners long term plan.
Can't you try and poach Radford off us?

Coaches like SW have a limited shelf-life. Shouting and swearing will only motivate players for so long before the influence starts to wear off. I'm not saying that's all SW has in his locker, but he seems to sit in the motivational coach camp, rather than the technical guru camp.

We've had years of coaches telling us that success would come once they had "their team"
My argument is that MM hardly signed anyone for you and yet turned you into champions.

I could only remember them. There was another Melbourne player.
The point which you clearly are deliberately avoiding is Maguire had a far far far better squad.
Stick with Wane he's building a seriously good team out of your academy. Which he's had a lot of input in.
You've lost 2 games grow up all of you. Before that you didn't concede a point in 160 mins.

I'm not ready to join the Wane out brigade yet - we've played some of our best rugby in a long time under his coaching. However he needs to keep his mouth firmly shut and stop giving the opposition team talk for them. He's also got three games to sort out the appalling away performances that are going to kill the season unless something changes. Three poor defeats at Newcastle v Leeds, at Huddersfield and Stains and his position will be untenable.

Lima, Hoffman and Finch joined after Maguire won his only GF with us.

Did MM inherit a great team at Souths as well then?
Bit of a coincidence he's gone back to the NRL and done exactly what he did here.

Wrong again.

Madge took over a team that finished 6th the season before and took them to the title with only one addition in Paul Deacon.

Challenge Cup wins is 3 each with us and Wire. So will you admit we are way ahead of them them?

Also apart from you who mentioned the biggest club in the world? I actually said we aren't the best side in SL

You seem to either not know what you talking about, love clutching at straws or you're a bad troll.

It was a long shot you'd win anything this season with your squad compared to leeds saints and Catalan and given their age.
Judge them next season. They'll start to kick on then.
A new coach would destroy these kids and bring in a lot of dross players.
You have Tomkins to add next year. He seems happy playing for Wane.

Just all the money and influence he needed.
Not going so we'll at present is he maybe crow should sack him

It worked for Sir Alex for 20 years

Spot on.
I'm a SW fan but his pre match interviews are tedious, repetitive and are not doing SW or the team any favours.
He may have lost the players if he has then his time will be limited.
Our game plan demands good centre play but at the moment we have none therefore, our attack is stop start and our passing abysmal.
I hope he can turn it around but this needs more than wingers working hard and the team "playing tough" this needs the team and playing style stripping down to basics and building back up again.
Saints got battered there last year and turned it around hopefully we can repeat that but personally I doubt it. Hope I wrong

All three it appears. Thanks for the insight. You didn't mention that 6 is twice as many as 3 though. Was I correct on that point?
Only joined the debate as I think you need a bit of perspective 're your current coach.
Some of you do. You clearly don't.
Trolls don't praise opposition teams. As I keep repeating look around the league. You have a generation much like Leeds did 10 years ago.
