No very different other than the results.
Wire were without the spine for preseason extended break after England duties and Roberts was a late arrival, seemingly having more ons and offs that Shaun Edwards!

We had structures coming together as Price concentrated only on defence. Our attack was a very instructed 5 drives and a kick. That went on for about a month before we started to see some handling.
Wigan however look lost without any structure....more spray and pray.

I can’t believe you’re still sticking to the ‘we were rubbish in attack on purpose’ nonsense, nobody can give a single ounce of credibility to that argument. It’s time for you to go back to your board and stop cluttering ours up with cack.

Agreed.

All this talk about Edwards now makes me wonder if we're losing the plot.

Surely the question is not whether he'll be coming or not, but whether we want him?

If he's going to behave like this - i.e. keeping whole of Wigan dangling while he struggles to make his mind up (having already given us an assurance that he was coming and then seemingly renaged on it) - do we really think he'd be good for us? Could we ever trust him as head-coach? He may be a scholar of the game, but he's also clearly a bit of an idiot.

Besides, the NRL season has now started up, and once again we're seeing standards of rugby and fitness that far surpass our own, let alone any of the average-standard crud we see in Six Nations RU. The last time we made a serious dive into the NRL, having sourced, tracked and recruited a promising young coach, it turned our fortunes around overnight. We went straight away from also-rans to champions.

For me, that should be where we're looking, the NRL. Not RU, which only ever gets better in its own imagination.

Interview on Granada reports Lam said if asked he would stop longer than 12 months

....and?

This guys the Warrington version of the Yellow Giraffe, remember him, spent more time on our board than he ever did on his own. Just ignore him and eventually he'll scuttle off somewhere else, Redvee hopefully with all the others no-one wants to listen to.

OK let's cut to the chase...
Edwards is looking dead in the water....
Who would you be looking at as coach for 2020?

Can’t we just ban the pr!ck?

Kieron Purtill

has more coaching experience than most top flight coaches, hes from Wigan , a lifetime supporter and would be a real dark horse, yes he wont appear on any radars, apart from assistant jobs but I think English RL clubs are looking ina lot of the wrong places.

heard its Tony Smith

Now now behave

Steve Price..........just to p!ss you off

We can’t go for Price because we can’t afford another slow start in 2020 and according to Dickie he’s famed for tactically losing his first five games to build defensive structures (summat like that anyway).

Shane Wane all day long for me. His achievements of the last 7 seasons look all the more incredible when you look just how average some of these players look without him. He lost top players year in year out and just dealt with it. I very much doubt it happening under Lenagan but sincerely hope I’m wrong.

Lol...post of the week.
