Michael Maguire leaves club

[Westie]

If he doesn't try something different from Brooks next week then he has to go .

We need to clean up the captaincy issues by getting rid of that mess. The captains are our most disappointing players. You can't really have the current coach back away from those decisions. Need someone new to bring some positivity and creativity to the team. I'd suggest John Morris who managed a bad situation in Cronulla really well.

 

[Blocker1963]

Nearly every NRL Team has a strike player or 2, we have nothing, Recruiting has been poor at best. Give some young talent a go and take a bit of pain, others Teams do

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

It's so hard to believe when they come out and say they had a really good pre-season
Like they do every year
It's all BS

Crap situation, they either don't listen to him or he is hopeless. Both are equally bad.

Defending him is pointless at this stage.

The best option might be Gardiner, who reportedly has rapport with some of the younger guys. Anyone they will listen to.

I just don't want Sheens because if the some of his brain dead decisions, but even he would be better.

Sorry Madge, can't back you anymore, even though I don't blame you for the players being puss.

 

[Wounded_magpie]

Let’s not forget, we were smashed by the Wooden Spooners in the final game last year .
I can’t see our situation improving under Madge .

 

[Newtown]

I believe that a coach has to have rapport with his players no matter what grade he is coaching. I am absolutely sure that Madge has no rapport with the Wests Tigers team he has been coaching. Madge, there is no use turning up to train if the players are not interested in listening and following your coaching. Make it easy for yourself. I can't be any more clearer than that.

Has the club improved in his tenure?
Nope

Punt him
Bring in Flanno

I ask every time someone says 'sack the coach'. Who is the better option RIGHT NOW? And it doesn't cut it to say 'anyone is better'. Who is a better option right now? And secondly, whoever you choose, do you sincerely think the team will suddenly become world beaters? And again, you cant say 'anything would be better'.

I agree. But sometimes, change just needs to happen, not for a "long term" result, not to make things better, or worse, or anything - it just needs to happen, to re-set.

Right now we are expecting things to suddenly change for the better, but time and time again it is pretty damn clear that NOTHING has changed under Madge for over 2 years - we are literally witnessing : The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result

 

[bathursttiger1]

They tried for Ciraldo last year, not going to convince him to come with todays performance

Same with Nanai.

 

[KH1988]

Maguire's winning percentage at the Tigers is worse than Jason Taylor's when he got punted

 

[hobbo1]

Flanno
Dank
And the Gazelle.. top 4

 

[Tiger Woods]

If I was Madge for my mental health I would be packing my bags tonight & quitting
Better than copping a few more weeks of torture & then getting the sack
I would go now while the doors still open
How much more can a person endure
Now I know why people go bald & grey
🧔 😂

We don’t have the talent but what I saw today was Ill discipline and mistakes which is all about focus and attitude. It’s not good enough and it comes back to players taking responsibility and coaching. Madge was 1000/1 with this squad but it’s becoming clear the players are not responding.

You're 100% right. That is the definition of insanity. We have already gone through 4 or 5 coaches, lets do it again!

That name makes me want to vomit.
Hate that prick.
Might need some forum members permission to call him that. Wouldn't want to.be a keyboard warrior🤣

 

[hobbo1]

Madge is only like 47! 😂
Looks like 77 !

 

[stryker 69]

Madge, they aren’t listening to you, they haven’t been for a while. They are not improving, nothing is changing and the young guys coming through are useless.
The stress just aint worth it man, go get an easy payday overseas.

47 is close to the number of points that (champion) Team Newcastle scored today.
