To be fair to him, he has delivered some big names over time, some have worked out, others have not.
You can't argue with Webb, Peacock, Buderus, Ellis, Lauiti'iti as big name signings.

He has also delivered (or helped to deliver) a sustainable business model and financial stability off the field and one of the most successful periods in the club's history on the field.
Hetherington Out!

Oh yes agreed.. i'm not doubting his excellent leadership. We owe him a great deal of thanks. It just made me laugh because that's what he usually says.

And how long will you be able to continue in your current job compared to the longevity, or lack of it, of a profesional rugby player,of either code.
Making money while you can is sometimes everything

And they're both positives but in terms of squad building I doubt Leeds' plans are any different to Wigan's. The difference maybe that when Wigan identify a problem position they tend to fill it even if that costs money.

Hetherington's job is (or should be) to maximise the clubs potential and that includes on the field. Ultimately he will be judged on results not whether the club made a huge profit.

Wigan don't have enough money to fill all their problem positions.

Judging by the league position, they start at 1 and end at coach. Seriously I think they need major surgery before they can be consistently competitive, and pretty much all over the park.
It's interesting that they are still in the cup, as this probably represents the best opportunity for success for teams who lack consistency and talent.

So which players are their problems?
On paper Wigan have as capable a squad as any in SL and on their day they walloped St Helens.
Getting consistent performances out of them is where their problem lies and that's more an attitude and coaching issue for mine.

Not by his shareholders but, regardless, he's delivered on all fronts during the last 5 years and he was building towards that for about four or five years before then.
