If Briers ever put a Wigan shirt on, he'd undo years of good work.

Can't even imagine Wire without Briers! Don't think he would play for another team in Super league. However if its in a coaching role it would be good for him to begin his coaching career somewhere else.

My god, the world just stopped turning

What makes everyone think he's going to be a great coach? He may well be, and good luck to him, but great players aren't always, and I don't want him coaching at Warrington unless he is.

If he goes and earns his stripes elsewhere then returns in future after proving his worth then great, but the last thing we need is another "jobs for the boys" culture starting up with players/ex-players being appointed to coaching roles based on sentiment.

I fdon't think Smith is big on sentiment.

He can't be welcomed to somewhere that he already is.....

Neither do I. I was referring to comments earlier in this thread from people wanting him to get a coaching job here.

I'm pretty sure Smith will expect him to go elsewhere and earn one first, and rightly so.

He is still a St Helens lad and he will support us when he retires, not the Wire. He was fist pumping and roaring T-Mak on when he made the break down Wigan's right.

New Wolves’ deal for Briers

Warrington Wolves are delighted to announce that half-back Lee Briers has agreed a one-year contract extension with the club for 2014.

Lee said: “I am really over the moon to have signed an extra year at Warrington. After a horrible start to the season with a neck injury I am delighted that the club has given me this opportunity to finish my career here and also further my career in youth development coaching. Even though I had offers from other clubs there was only one place I was going to sign. The fans here are second to none.”

Glad to keep him, it'd be very sad to see him play for another club, so it's good to have one of the old guard sticking around for another year.

Get in!
