I never said it was an obsession, I simply believe he is one of the best young coaches in super league. It was only my opinion.

I am not writing Lammy off, I know full well we will come round and be there abouts come the business end of the season. I am 100% sure he is back off to Oz in November regardless of how this year goes.

Must admit Ian Watson is a very underrated coach, he does seem to have got together a fine squad for 5 did and change.

Shane Flanagan?

Who do you blame for the merry dance?
Edwards or Lenegan?

Both, Edwards for being so cryptic and Leneghan for not nipping it in the bud from the start.

Was a daft question.
Should have asked which of them carries the greater weight of blame?

It's issues like this with Edwards that really makes me get really down about Wigan. One step forward and two steps back it seems.

I'd imagine IL is feeling extremely p'd off at the moment, having thought he had delivered, it seems Edwards has now backtracked severely. IL has his hands tied, if he really doesn't want to come, there is no point forcing the issue. The two issues are, that he isn't coming, which will disappoint many a fan (me included), and secondly we appointed a stop gap because of him. Had Edwards not committed, we would not have appointed Lam.

It really has turned into a mess for everyone apart from Edwards, who is unaffected as he walks from job to job like nothing has happened.

Had Edwards committed though?...seems little more than a handshake over a pie dinner.

You can't blame Lam for sure....he's the fall guy.

You cant say that though. Lam had been mentioned many times in the past as an option. He may of got the job anyway. What exactly is wrong with Lam? You cant judge him too much from the teams performances so far IMO. This team is is like a derelict house that has been a couple of player losses away from collapsing for quite a few years. This is why Wane kept them playing a very basic game plan IMO. The majority of the players are just not good enough for anything but repetitive structured RL. Losing Bateman and Tomkins was the final hammer blow IMO. Do not under estimate the contribution of those two players, especially Bateman who was an absolute machine and never had a bad game.

I hear Shaun's not coming as still people can't spell his name correctly.

Ironically that's why Sam Tompkins left.

Surely it all boils down to one simple factor; is Edwards contracted to Wigan for 2020? IL surely knows. If it's a yes then IL needs to quickly speak to Shaun to stop all the nonsense. If no, he's not actually contracted, then IL has lied to to fans and further afield about the future of our club.

I dont see how he can be legally contracted otherwise he surely wouldnt be saying what he is? Unless there is a clause in the contract that allows him to stay in RU should a top job become available.
