Supermarket carparks across Wigan are full of suited men exchanging brown paper parcels. There isn't any sprouts in those bags either. |

If you read between the lines he wont be sacked for not winning a trophy in his first season is stated but I think that statement is based on the assumption you WILL win something or at least come damned close i.e. make a final. Expectations at Wigan are at the same level as those at Saints and Leeds but unfortunatly for the new guy he has a team that has consistantly underachieved for a long long time now where Saints and Leeds have been delivering.
Tough job tbh |

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

Precisely. How much are they on the RFL menu? I remember several clubs being turned down for work permits for coaches because they hadn't been head coach in the NRL, so it's strange that the rules don't apply to Wigan. |

Watch and listen to the interview, the clue is in there.

Fair enough. I wasn't aware they had changed the rules. So Wigan didn't actually need a special exemption then?

They've got to two semi finals this year, they haven't under achieved that much.
Nobles inability to get them anywhere near the top 2 and then left them with too much to do in the play offs has cost him his job.
If this bloke is any good, and if he's been the assistant coach at Melbourne he will be, and can deal with the step up to head coach Wigan will be pretty dangerous next year. They'll also have a number of players playing for new contracts which means there'll be far better performances from some of their more underachieving players. |

| Quote: Chris Saint "I agree some people are reading half an interview, but you can't deny that Pollard could have publicly said a few things a bit better this week than he has done, no matter what he says in the confines of his office.
Laying everything at Noble's feet publicly is ok - as long as Noble doesn't create a slanging match in the media about IL's running of the club
Admitting the coach wasn't first choice live on TV
Saying the only chance of success is to appoint from overseas (hardly something to inspire Mr. Wane in terms of his long term prospects)
Comparing Grand Final winning Leeds appointing the Tri-Nations winning coach to Wigan (whom he amdits are desperately out of shape) appointing an untried Assistant Coach and expecting him to win a trophy in the first year.
To me what should be seen as a very promising appointment is being somewhat overshadowed by his ramblings & feeding the trolls.
P.S. Before you think me another troll I do believe it is a very promosing move and it should see Wigan competitve year round which is great news for the game and a return to a proper local rivalry - though IL might be expecting a lot with a trophy 2010 if he is not giving him chance to change the squad at all.'"
I think if you look on the Wigan board i have said I.L. could have handled things better regarding this.
The big advantage of M.M. Coming is Wane going to Assistant coach he will bring the passion to the players and drive them harder in training. |

Not only that but Wane will have the respect off all the younger players to as they have all worked with him previously. The Wane appointment is the best decision IL has made yet as he has done tremendous work with the younger players and deserves his chance. |

Quite incredible the depth of knowledge IL has about what characters are saying what on this (and other) forums, even down to knowing what their avatars are. Has he got no work to do?
Whoops just remembered, he has no work to do except watch Saints and Leeds.

Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union.
