I hate to say it but I think Lam would be a disaster at Wigan as a coach. We desperately need an experienced coach to turn things around at Wigan, and by that I mean a NRL coach - Lammy just doesn't have that and his CV has hardly been helped by his stint at the Roosters. If he was that good he'd be a shoe-in for the Roosters job next season, given how house they've been this season.

If the rumours are true Lenagan has dropped a big bollox by going for a previous player, which will appease some fans but is again the cheap and wrong option.

I think thats the big issue really.


If Lenagan can get a coach that over 50% of the fans will be happy with for a decent price i think he'll go for it wheather it's the best thing for the club or not.

if he got that he'd be a miracle worker ....

True enough!

Radlinski anyone ? His passion for the club isn't in question and he's part of the England set up now.

Perhaps working in tandem with someone proven, then.

Kris is now on the coaching ladder, I have always thought Rads will one day be Wigan`s coach goes without saying not even in the top ten yet but with the right nurturing, advice and direction hopefully he will get there one day.

KRIS RADLINSKI SIMPLY THE BEST

I did say one day

Wouldn't be happy with Lam as Head Coach, maybe assistant yes.

Get McGuire in

Lam definetly seems to be coming back to the UK - He says he wants to in LE and in this months RL World an interview with Tansey reveals that he thinks he is leaving the Roosters to come to the UK as well.

Assistant - Yes
Coach - No

No to Fairleigh as well, IL needs to appoint a proper coach otherwise we can forget it.

I totally agree, assistant only for Lam, and as for Fairleigh If I were Lenegan I wouldn't even waste my time. I think the fans have spoken, McGuire as coach with Lammy as assistant and Noble many many miles away.

I think he would do very well in france, the squad there is almost ready made for him.

surely who ever we get as the next coach will choose his on assistant...... i wouldnt want to come to a new job and be stuck with someone i couldnt work with

i personally dont want Lam back at wigan...

I take a punt on Dave Furner, he loved his time at wigan and always spoke well and also had influence in the short time he was with us he quickly became one of the pros who everyone looked up to.

I spoke to him many times when he was in the UK and he i think his passion and desire to win would work great at Wigan.

And just recently his raiders side exposed the Broncos to there worst ever defeat.

Whether we could get him away from his own town Canberra is another question.
