Excellent news!

Can I be the first - Peet Out!





Only kidding, good news and long term stability.

Fantastic news. The only man for the job IMO.

Long May he reign

He’s pretty unique in RL in that he can be quite profound but still have that common touch. As expected, he spoke very well tonight at the IL evening.
I’ve never actually met him but in every interview he comes across as a very level headed lad. When he’s asked a question you can see him digesting the question before he actually answers. I like the guy.
He’s a pretty decent coach too. Another good appointment by IL.
He will have some lows but I’m pretty confident that over the next few years he will deliver far more highs.
Really pleased for him and his family.

I have met him a few times and he always has a measured response to your questions and a very likeable guy.Praises other people first so I think we are in good hands,may the jobs for the boys carryon

Arguably the most important retention we could announce. The architect of a culture at the club which is 2nd to none.

Well deserved. We couldn't be in better hands.

Great news. There'll no doubt be up and downs with any long serving coach but i think we can be fairly confident were in safe hands with Matty in charge.

Good news. Obviously MD values having him as his head coach.

Culture was one of the most used words at last nights Loch Lomond night with Ian Lenagan.

Ian highlighted how much of our success in his tenure was down to reinventing the club's culture by hiring proud, motivated, honest staff who knew what Wigan rugby meant for the fans and the town.

Matty Peet embodies this and goes about his business with respect and integrity. You don't see him going on big sulks or whinges - he focuses on us getting better each day and I think thats why we're back competing.

I also like the fact he entrusts his staff with responsibilities

I thought that comments made about a certain Cheshire club regarding poor culture was most telling last night.

Be fair, they are turning over a new leaf. They have learned from bad apples like Josh McGuire and now sign players like Zane Musgrove . . . . . hmmmm.

I'd heard his name but didn't know anything about him, so I googled him and looked at his Wiki page and I'm now struggling to figure out if he's a rugby league player or a professional bar room brawler! Each season had a breakdown of the incidents he's been involved in.

I got the feeling this was aimed at the off field set up (from the very top downwards). An uncomfortable silence followed.....

Some of you may recall that I mentioned months ago that he was to be a guest on a podcast that a mate of mine hosts. For a lot of reasons which I’m not going into, it was delayed however he sat down with my mate between Christmas and New Year. Of note is that my mate and his lad who host the podcast are big Saints fans!! Link below and well worth a listen to other episodes. Wane was on one a while ago And just to annoy our mate RobRiches it was my mate (contact) at Wigan that sorted it all out for my mate https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t ... 0643075373
