I didn't say they had amazing resources, just that as a coach he got off to a good start but with a stronger squad this year they look a weaker proposition.
A new coach coming in can have a dramatic impact on performance - look at the turnaround in results with Noble at the end of his first year - that sort of form would probably have seen you at the top of the table but he's no uber-coach.
Quote ="Odemwingie"Maguire has turned this team upside down. He has done an amazing job so far, you can't deny it. He is exactly the sort of coach everyone wants. He will win something

He has done a very good job so far, absolutely no question. Will he win anything in his time at Wigan? Who knows. He may not even reach a final.
I just find the gushing praise lavished on him before we're remotely near the business end pretty funny. Suddenly he's the best coach in SL and better than coaches who have nilled Oz in tri-nations finals and won back to back SLs, or led teams to finals/trophies in their first seasons.
In reality, he's achieved zip yet over here and his achievement in Oz are questionable to say the least. In a month Wigan could be out of the cup and off the top of SL, I think it might be wise to delay the "King of Coaching" coronations until the pots are handed out.
