Of course he is happy to do it, and he has said as much. McManus didn;t have a gun to his head.

Rush has said that he has happy to fill in for this season IN THE SHORT TERM and as a proud St.Helens lad, its a fantastic honour and privilge to take the job. He has also said the IN THE LONG TERM he wants to focus on his preferred role, which I am sure you would agree he excells at.

So to make it very simple, he doesn't want the job in the long term, and he hasn't been asked to do this. He is happy to do the job in the short term, and this is what he is doing.

It really is very very simple.

Exactly!!

He does not look like Tommy! How very dare you!!



But if that is all he's got, then I'm disappointed!

True, it is pretty lame. Then again, Wane is bound to be better at the jungle drums thing, having grown up in the tropical forests of Eastern Zaire

I actually quite like reading that we don't like each other in every interview, stoke it up

As an aside (not been on here since the announcement) - made up you get to host this at the DW, a proper away cup tie rather than the sanitised shambles that could have been. Well done Wigan.

I think he looks like a cross between Tom Hanks & Graham Norton, thats all I have to say.
