“Does his job” “ better than expected” I forgive the decidedly haughty tones embedded in those remarks.
Alas Madge does not recruit. He is consulted only. He has no direct responsibility so you cant attribute the signings to him. You are mistaken. That’s ok.
Anyway you look at it, Ivan walked out for mostly selfish reasons.
Contrary to your suggestion, the fog is still clearing. His long term wretched signings remain contracted to this day. Snouts in our cap. He has a major hand in the situation you have kindly shown empathy for.
Texting our players goodbye was somewhat cowardly and lacked moral fibre.
He let thousands of people down and needs to be reminded of his shortcomings once in awhile.
You mean every time you open your mouth.

Interesting fact that is generally overlooked when Russell Packer and Josh Reynolds joined W/T they were considered 'reasonable signing......(although W/T had to pay overs) because basically no one has wanted to go there since Sheens left
Reynolds had hamstring tear before round 1, finally made first appearance at round 6.
In round 6 suffered a shoulder fracture which eventually took him out for the rest of the season.
Cleary left at the end of 2018.
So an injury riddled 12 months that noone saw comming.
Packer was playing rep footy when he joined W/T in 2018. Yep he was paid overs....(for above reason)
Had a reasonable season in 2018 although the team generally struggled.
It's quite amusing how a narrative 'invents' itself in this case devoid of any real facts.
