Remove Edwards from the hall of fame. He has now tarnished his reputation in Wigan to the point it is irrepairable. He was never as good as Andy Gregory anyway.

The BS continues with Lenagan backing up Edwards tale that he doesn’t feel he’s prepared for the job rather than calling him out.

Never wanted him in the first place but just give us some honesty.

Can’t agree. He should be judged based on how he’s performed in a Wigan shirt not any preconceived idea of him. As I said, he was playing very well up until getting injured and made our attack click. It’s no coincidence that the Cas comeback came following him leaving the field.

I’ll admit I was a little disappointed when he signed because of rumours about Widdop and Johnson. But he’s played well in a Wigan shirt and that’s the basis on which I believe we should judge him. Big name signings don’t mean success, look at Tyrone Roberts.

I think Lenagan still has too much respect for him. Probably wants to try and salvage the reputation of one of his childhood heroes.

Regardless who's to blame in this or the real reasons (aka money or the lack thereof, in all probability), can we not just try to concentrate on getting the season on track & not end up stressing about relegation - which is where i believe we're firmly heading. Whoever the next coach is (unlikely to be LAM, i'd say) we shouldn't be faffing about with that until we have a bucket of more points on the ladder.

To get the season back on track we need some bodies added to the squad, have a bit of a clear out and loan some players out.

We desperately needed either an organising/kicking 7 and leave Tommy at 9 or out him back to 7 and get a hooker - Matt Parcell would be a good option, so that Tommy can fight it out with Sammut when he returns for that spot.

We also need a big prop, someone like Bousquet at Catalans.

We also are a second rower down, Matty Ashurst would be a good option.

I think he’s more keeping the door open in the future for him. I wouldn’t actually be surprised if we hired an NRL assistant for a few years and IL went back in for SE.

Interesting conversation on Twitter between Phil Wilkinson and Bobbie Goulding with the latter recommending Ellery Hanley. He’s been out the game for 11yrs since leaving Doncaster in 2008 and for me would be a bigger shot in the dark then Shaun Edwards ever was but with the right team behind and around him, could you say no?

I wouldn't wish Arrogant Hanley on any club.

why would Matty want to go to a failing Wigan side that hasn't even got a decent coach



you might not be the big club you think you are lets wait and see eh

You'd better get used to every name under the sun being mentioned on here in the next few months.

The trick, if it's one of yours, is not to take it too personally. That just makes you looked scared.
