Casper had more success than Barrett but would anyone call him a Wigan legend, I TB being called a legend simply because he was from the NRL?

so you have to win things to be a legend? Ricky Bibey is as much as a legend as Bret Kenny.....have a word with yourself |

What is the obsession with filling the club with former players?!
I really don’t understand it.
Can we just not go for the best man for the job regardless of the fact that they may or may not have a connection with Wigan?!

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif |

Have to agree with you sometimes a drag pair of eyes is needed at a club and I think this is one of those times |

As others have identified Flanagan is the obvious target.

Agree with the comments, Barrett is an NRL great who we had for a season or two at the tail end of his career, ala Bryan Fletcher. Neither are 'legends', just very good players in their day.

Wouldn't want Flanagan and his previous history anywhere near Wigan RL.
Have doubts about Barrett as he's not done very well in his previous stops. Nor did Furner, and look how Leeds are going.
Coming around to the idea of Chris Chester, or keeping Lammy.

I’d offer it to Lam. Whilst we had a slow start to the season and already a plethora of injury issues, we have been a joy to watch when players have been fit. That Catalan game was one of the most enjoyable Wigan games I’ve watched in about a decade.

It's hard to imagine they haven't asked Lam, that's the first question, after all; is he interested? If he is, you can think about whether you want to give it him it to him. If he isn't, best start looking.
