Quote: Paul Youane "From what I understand he left Wigan in the end because of the financial restraints he was working to and the refusal to support his plans with the necessary finances.'"
I guess it played a pretty big part. It’s Lenagans business model to let players leave when their wage demands get too high and he’s brought in transfer fees for many players but as a coach when you have to deal with some of your best players leaving each year it can’t be easy. I think the fact Tomkins, Bateman and Sutton were going at the end of 2018 and if replaced, were being replaced with cheaper options tipped him over the edge. I must admit I thought in 2019 we’d decided to really cut back and not spend up to the cap but that then changed for 2020 and now we seem to be making moves Wane probably wanted before his exit. Maybe it’s the investment Mike Danson put up that’s made it possible but I bet Wane wished it had happened sooner (although maybe not on George Burgess).
If Wane didn’t win a Grand Final at Warrington in his time I’d be amazed. I really hope in that case that these rumours aren’t true
