| Quote: NickyKiss "Just watched Peets interview on Wigan TV and I certainly like what he has to say. It certainly wasn’t full of the bluster we heard from Lam and claims of rugby league being played like the planet had never seen. It sounds very much like there’s an appetite to get us playing good rugby but the main appetite is to improve everyone and to work towards winning trophies.'"
Agreed. He very much seems out of the Wane mould, which is to be expected. A lot of emphasis about caring for players properly and communicating with them; maybe somewhere he thinks we can improve (who knows!)? Excited about the appointments, it does seem like a fresh start even though the personnel isn’t fully turned over. |

I call dibs on Briers for 2022 scapegoat of the year. |

| Quote: Wigan6/Leeds1 Andy "Unfortunately the appointment is in keeping with the squad for next season - underwhelming.
I'll be pleasantly surprised if we finish above any of the following next season
Shaun Wane - born winner who makes everyone below him better. The current England coach.
Matty Peet - Coached us when we had the strongest defence in the league and even when we've been we've had a solid defence. Coached the academy.
SOL - One of the best players of his generation and getting good praise as a coach. No issues if he takes over the defence as he wasn't exactly a bad defender. Great leader.
Briers - Cracking player, received good reviews as a coach in some circles, replaces the poor attack coach we all asked to replace.
What is underwhelming about it?

Put simply, the head coach isn't a big name. |

| Quote: CyberPieMan "It's more like a management [iteam[/i than Wane being Peet's "mentor" isn't it? I don't see it much different than when Madge was here & unlike Lam they won't need 6 months' adjustment (if he ever really did get it) nor underestimate SL in general (I really do think he came over with the attitude that SL was a vastly inferior game & he'd just be able to sit back & relax for a while).
At least I can stop fretting whether to renew my ST now, I'd be burning shirts if McDermott had been hired as was the speculation in some quarters.'"
I read an interview that referred to Wane mentoring Peer. It significantly mentioned it |

Was that not referring to when Wane was head coach and Peet was assistant? |

Having a coach who has got the gig purely off coaching merit rather than what he did as a player is appealing to me. I'm optimistic.

As I said in the post you replied to - we've gone back to the Wigan bubble, we've even brought back Wane into some part-time role that I'm not exactly sure what he'll do. Some of the things you say about O'Loughlin and Briers applied to Lam. We need some new thinking and a fresh approach - have no problem with Peet, O'Loughlin or Briers as assistant coaches but not as the main man. |

Why not? How long does your CV need to be before you get the gig? Bearing in mind that Madge and Wane both had zero first team head coach experience.
Peet has coached England also BTW. |

The above was just an answer as to why people will be underwhelmed.
I'd be more comfortable with a proven coach, I suppose. Particularly after the last few seasons. Time will tell if it is the correct decision though. |

Maguire was widely regarded as the best NRL assistant and ready for the next step (he even coached Melbourne when Bellamy when on State of Origin duty) and was exactly what we needed to shake things up. For me we are at the same point when the club needs a new rocket up its collective backside.
Wane was groomed to be Maguire successor and was part of the vast improvements that Maguire instilled from day one, I'm not sure Peet has had that over he last three years with Lam. |
