The RFL have no say on the visa. That's down to the UK government.

With a name like McGuire he's probably Irish.

It's the RFL that require first team coaching experience.

So he has problems then?

John Dixon didn't have first grade coaching experience. Clubs can apply for special dispensation. They have to argue their case in front of the RFL.

Whilst that would be one excellent collection of former great players I personally don't think Matty Johns or Lam are the right type of people we need at Wigan.

Johns and Lam are both likeable & funny guys and i can see them going the same way Forshaw has at Wigan as they’d be to close to the players. It’s just the type of characters they are as they have to be one of the boys.

I’d personally like the fitness coach next season to be someone from outside the old boy RL network. If we are going to maximise our facilities and potential we need to be recruiting the top people out there.

If Maguire is coming maybe we will see a mirror of the current situation he’s come from with two assistant coaches one coaching the forwards and one coaching the backs?

I’d go for this if it did mirror the Storm set up;

Head Coach-MaGuire
1st Head coach & Forwards coach –Wane
2nd Head coach & Backs coach- Harris(Can’t think of another back out there who has coaching exp)
21’s-????????
18’s-Radders
Fitness coach- If we don’t got outside the old boys club I’d love to see Pongia brought in.

What do people think of Sculthorpe being brought in? Ultimate pro in his day as well as very respected…..

Speculating on names of coaching assistants we want brought in to the club is pointless.

If Maguire is appointed as expected then I'd want him to have what HE wants.

Hving someone around the club like Sculthorpe would be a good move..we need as many born winners as possible ..i think he would make a good youth coach
